General Info

eCHO is a six passenger luxury electric boat that is offering tours on the New River and Intracoastal waterways. With a 100% commitment to a “Green Eco-Tour" Let eCHO take your guests on a fun, safe and informative tour through canals formerly unseen by current tour operators and visitors alike. The electric motor offers zero carbon emissions, and the entire charter operation has an almost zero sum carbon footprint on the environment. The 16 6 volt golf cart batteries can run 7½ hours on a single charge. Imagine touring the New River on a nearly silent boat while going through quiet canals looking at the wildlife that Florida is famous for. With the intimate interior, fewer guests and our noiseless electric motor, there is no need for a microphone to speak at your guests; we will be speaking with your guests. Answering passenger questions about the scenery and wildlife as well as giving a brief history of the canal system in general and Ft. Lauderdale in particular this is a tour unlike any other in the area.eCHO offers very comfortable seating, wide access boarding steps with hand grips, satellite radio, fresh water sink,and plenty of head room, your guests will enjoy a leisurely two hour tour through the canals that made Ft. Lauderdale famous.eCHO will also be available for private charters as well. We offer four different routes that take us off of the main parts of the New River and the Intracoastal waterway, however we use these only a suggestions to visitors that may not have been in the area previously. For example, if returning guests have ridden with us before, we have the ability to switch to another leg of the river they may not have seen before. Also, if the boat is chartered privately, guests will be able to direct the tour anywhere they would like (conditions and river traffic permitting). Examples may be: Shopping for a yacht or homes, shopping on Los Olas Blvd., dine a-rounds, wedding parties, and wine tastings; even bar hopping. Premium soft drinks and water are provided free of charge, however we don't provide alcoholic beverages on board. If guests would like to bring wine, beer or spirits, they are more than welcome to.With our attention placed on the surrounding natural environment and history as well as our 100% commitment to a truly “Green Eco-Tour", you will truly love your time on the water with Gondolas West and M/V eCHO!
