Trixie is a 1958 Vali IV, a striking pink vintage boat designed to turn heads while cruising the scenic waters of Lady Bird Lake. This retro vessel features layered seat designs and comfortably accommodates up to four passengers with a strict weight limit of 750 pounds. Trixie is perfect for a relaxing 90-minute ride, offering guests a unique combination of classic style and modern comfort. Swimming and fishing are not allowed during the rental, and pets are prohibited from June first to November first. The boat has limited legroom around the steering wheel, so it may not be comfortable for drivers over six feet tall. Guests can enjoy the sights of the Austin skyline, the Congress Avenue Bridge, and the surrounding waterways while listening to music via the onboard Bluetooth speakers. Umbrellas provide shade or protection in case of a light sprinkle, making the ride enjoyable in a variety of weather conditions.
Guests are encouraged to bring water to stay hydrated, hats for sun protection, and towels or blankets for comfort. Additional items to enhance the experience include snacks or finger foods, sunglasses, a camera or phone for photos, a light jacket or wrap for breezy moments, sunscreen, and a portable fan for hot days. Trixie offers a stylish and memorable way to explore Lady Bird Lake, whether for a romantic outing, a fun adventure with friends, or simply a relaxing ride to enjoy the water and views. The boat may be subject to change for maintenance purposes, ensuring safety and quality for all guests.

What a cool experience! Boarding was super easy and the boat was really cool! They even gave us umbrellas to take out on the boat since it was a little warm. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to show folks around the city from the water.

Retro Boats ATX offers such a unique and fun way to experience Austin. The boats are stunning, easy to operate, and comfortably seat up to four people. The entire experience was fantastic, and the customer service truly stands out—they take the time to walk you through the process and even provide a map of the area. I also appreciated the added peace of mind knowing they can track the boats for everyone’s safety. I’ll definitely be booking again, especially to try the night boat ride!

Celebrated my wife’s birthday. Skylar was awesome and she was said nice. I didn’t get the gentleman’s name with her but thanks to both of you my wife had a blast and it was a great time. Will definitely recommend it.

I highly recommend ATX Retro Boat Rentals! From start to finish, the experience was smooth, relaxing, and one of a kind. The peacefulness of the water paired with the retro vibes of the boat made for the perfect outing. The ambience was top-tier — calm, scenic, and just the escape we needed. Whether you’re looking for a chill day on the water or a fun date idea, this is definitely the move. Can’t wait to come back!
Damion
100% worth the money! Fun way to cruise around Town Lake. 5 mph is kind of perfect. Plenty of space in the boat. Highly recommend a covered/ boat with roof during a super sunny/hot day. I believe they provide umbrellas but you don’t want to hold an umbrella, you want to hold hands. The folks at the dock, both at the departure and return were all super sweet and really personable. I was super impressed by the entire process and transaction! Had a blast!
