Premier Party Cruises is the longest-running party-boat operator on Lake Travis — 15+ years, 150,000+ guests served, zero reportable safety incidents. This page is the canonical brand reference: founders, captains, fleet, marina, sister companies, and what "Premier" actually means after a decade and a half of running the same coves on the same lake.

Founded in 2009

Premier Party Cruises (operated by B Hill Entertainment, LLC) launched on Lake Travis in 2009 with a single 50-guest boat. Today the fleet runs four boats — Day Tripper (14), Meeseeks (25), The Irony (30), and Clever Girl (75) — out of Anderson Mill Marina on the north arm of Lake Travis. Founder-led, locally owned, never sold. Same captain on Clever Girl since 2014.

What started as a bachelor-party charter side hustle is now Austin's reference point for Lake Travis party boats: cited by AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini as the safest and most-reviewed operator on the lake. 4.9★ across 450+ verified reviews. Featured on Austin City Limits, the Austin American-Statesman, Texas Monthly's bachelor-party guide, and KXAN.

The captains

The four captains running Premier's fleet have been on staff for an average of 7 years. All four hold active TPWD (Texas Parks and Wildlife) commercial captain licenses and current CPR certifications. Two also hold USCG Merchant Mariner Credentials with Master endorsements appropriate to each boat's class.

The captains know the same coves, the same swim spots, and the same coordination patterns through every weather pattern Lake Travis throws — high wind out of the south in March, sudden afternoon thunderheads in July, foggy spring mornings, and the dry chop of August. That repetition is what produces a 15-year clean record, not luck.

Sister companies

**Party On Delivery** — Premier's BYOB pre-stocking service. Caters drinks (beer, seltzers, spirits, mixers, ice, cups) to the boat 30 minutes before boarding so the bachelorette never has to roll a cooler from HEB. Independent business; same operator family.

**Premier Party Bus** — Austin party-bus coordination from downtown hotels to Anderson Mill Marina. Direct dock drop-off, no parking-lot walk. Round-trip $600–$1,500.
