Yacht Starship Snapshot
Troy Manthey took the helm of the 180-foot, $8-million luxury dining vessel, Yacht StarShip, shortly after its construction in 2000 in Biloxi, Mississippi. Manthey discovered Tampa in January 2001 when organizers of Super Bowl XXX chartered the world-class Yacht StarShip for the annual Gasparilla Invasion/ Celebration. Shortly afterward, he permanently relocated the Yacht StarShip to Tampa Bay’s vibrant Channelside entertainment district in downtown Tampa. In May 2007, Yacht StarShip opened its 2nd location in Clearwater Beach with the Yacht StarShip II and has subsequently added Yacht StarShip III (2014) and Yacht StarShip IV (2016). In 2009 Mr. Manthey became the sole owner of Yacht StarShip Dining Cruises, LLC, which employees 125 people. Most recently, February 2016, Yacht StarShip opened Pirate Water Taxi, LLC a new 7-day a week scheduled water taxi service with 16 stops and (4) vessels in Downtown Tampa.
