Vintage Pink “Trixie” Offers Stylish Cruise Experience on Lady Bird Lake


A distinctive boating experience on Lady Bird Lake is now offering rides aboard “Trixie,” a 1958 Vali IV vintage vessel known for its striking pink design. The retro boat is designed to stand out while providing a relaxed and scenic journey across Austin’s waterways.


Trixie accommodates up to four passengers with a strict 750-pound weight limit, making it ideal for small groups seeking an intimate 90-minute cruise. Swimming and fishing are not permitted, and pets are restricted between June 1 and November 1, ensuring a controlled and comfortable environment.


Passengers can enjoy views of the Austin skyline, the Congress Avenue Bridge, and surrounding lake scenery while listening to music through onboard Bluetooth speakers. The boat includes umbrellas for shade and light rain protection, enhancing comfort across changing weather conditions.


Priced as a premium vintage experience, Trixie is suited for romantic outings, casual gatherings, or leisurely sightseeing. Guests are encouraged to bring personal comfort items such as water, sunscreen, and cameras, making it a curated blend of retro style, relaxation, and scenic exploration on the lake.

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.
