Yamaha AR210 Propless Jet Boat Family Fun!
Owner was very easy to work with throughout the entire process. He quickly answered questions and was flexible. The boat was very powerful and handled well at speed with plenty of deck space. This is a great alternative to boat ownership and We will definitely rent this vessel again

Really loved my experience on this boat! Was the best part of my weekend in Miami. I’ve done many boat rentals and few captains are as accommodating and pleasant as ours was. The boat was clean and luxurious. Got so many great pictures with my friends! Will definitely rent again!

2.5hr SeaRay 260 Sundancer Sightseeing Tour Special Charter in Style
I absolutely loved my experience today! I can’t wait for the next charter with this company. They treated my husband and I like we were family and made us feel so welcomed! The communication is amazing between the captain and the owner, they both communicated with me to see if this charter was a special occasion and we’re always there to answer if we had any questions. The boat was extremely clean, the cleanest I’ve been on! Overall our boat charter was amazing and I will definitely be booking again!
