Lake Austin Celebration Cruiser: Bdays, Water Sports, Bachelor Parties ...
What an awesome day! Tommy and Edy were very communicative and made the trip so easy. Tommy took us on a scenic ride to a quiet area to swim--it was so much nicer than the normal party island trip! Would definitely book again.

**PREMIUM** 2022 Sea Ray on LAKE AUSTIN
We booked with Jeramy for a bachelorette trip with 6 girls! From the moment we booked he has been amazing with communication and very helpful with every step. The boat was in pristine condition and very new. He gave us great recommendations where to go on the water and was always texting with helpful tips for driving the boat. The price compared to others was also a selling point for us. We would 100% contact Jeramy for another rental again! The options for add on’s were super convenient as well (lilly pad). Thank you again!!

Harris Crowne 270 Pontoon Boat **Lake Travis Only**
Abel is THE BEST. Our group of friends had the most amazing day thanks to Abel's fantastic attitude and knowledge of the area. The boat is huge, super comfortable, and the sound system is top notch. Can't wait to book with him again :)

Unforgettable Lake Time w/ family aboard the Top of the line Mastercraft X-Star
We had an awesome day with Tony! From start to finish, he was communicative, professional, & friendly. He took us to chill and quiet spots along the lake like we requested and was very kind and accommodating. A good guy and a true Austinite! I’ll definitely be booking with Tony again soon.

This is a great value for money. The boat has lots of space. The speaker on the boat was high quality. I highly recommend Edy’s boat. The captain was also highly skilled and patient. Five star experience from me and my friends.

A Dream Lake Day Starts Here!! Super Air Nautique on Lake Austin
We had the greatest time on the boat with Michael. He provided us all with an outstanding experience and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide for a fun filled day on the lake. From tubing and wake surfing to relaxing in the party cove there was never a dull moment. This was the highlight of our trip and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to make the most out of their time in Austin.
