A Dream Lake Day Starts Here!! Super Air Nautique on Lake Austin
Michael was welcoming, communicative, accommodating, and truly went above and beyond every second we were on his boat! We had a group of 10 ladies and we all felt safe from booking to finish! He was truly the best captain we could have asked for:) For sure booking him again this summer.

A Dream Lake Day Starts Here!! Super Air Nautique on Lake Austin
Michael was amazing!! He had great communication leading up to our boat day and was well prepared. We had a great day on the lake surfing, tubing (he’s the best tube driver!!), and swimming in the party cove!! Michael made sure we had fun while feeling super safe on the water! Would 100% recommend booking your next trip with Michael - we’ll definitely be booking with him again!!

Lake Austin 14 Person Tritoon!
So much fun! The boat is spacious, seats are comfy, and the bluetooth speaker works well! Haigen was our captain and he was a great sport hanging out with us bachelorette party gals. They were responsive with questions and I'd book again!

Best Party Tritoon on Lake Austin!! BYOB. Captained
Super amazing experience!! Our captain was super helpful, informative, and made sure our group had an amazing time. The boat was the perfect size, it was new and had a great sound system and even had a lily pad with it. Would definitely recommend for anyone with a small group looking to have a fun day on the lake! And I will definitely be booking again.

Nathan was incredibly communicative and quick to respond with any questions I had. The captain was an excellent driver and wake surf instructor. This is the best boating experience on Lake Austin
