   Your Perfect Day on the Water Starts Here 219FS Key West in SWFL Marco Island

   Our family was a mix of ages from 2 to 65+. Manny's well maintained Key West boat kept us happy for 10 days straight. We had ignorant issues along the way, and Manny would respond within 5 minutes every time we had a question. He was so kind as we would troubleshoot the issue; our favorite was when we hadn't attached the kill switch and the boat wouldn't start. What was such a silly blunder was met with kindness and charm. The value that is not advertised is all the activities you can do with up to 8 people, such as going dolphin watching which commercially available at about $69-$79 a person for 3 hours. While it might not be in everyone's comfort zone to pilot a boat, we enjoyed dolphins literally rubbing the boat and playing in our wake. I personally had a dolphin punch my phone with its nose. You don't get that on those tours. Fishing is $450-$1250 per 4 hours. We fished approximately 60-80 hours, we went when we wanted, where we wanted and how we wanted. We went shelling on several islands that can only be reached by having a boat. We have returned with the best shells of our lives, and came across gopher tortoises in the process. How amazing it was for my teenage son to find an endangered animal on his own before returning to our group to share their location. We highly suggest learning about throttle control because, once we did, this boat sipped fuel, allowing us to hit offshore reefs on a budget, running at about 25mph, costing $18-$30 round trip. Returning the boat was again a breeze. We appreciated it so much we really tried to give it a proper wash, and he laughed saying we did great but it always goes to the pressure washer before the next group. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Manny's equipment and services and hope this review helps you make the choice to go all in on the adventures a boat can provide. Because of this experience, my wife has fully approved my dream of getting our own, and that alone is priceless.

   I am so glad we found Fred and hired him for a fun day on the water! His communications prior to the trip as well as during was great. We always felt safe and well cared for. It felt like we were out on a boat with a friend! The drone photos were an added bonus!

   My group and I had an amazing day with Fred for our friend’s bachelorette. We spent four hours hanging out on the boat. Fred showed us cool spots and allowed us to swim at a boating dock area. His drone is also a nice touch as he was able to capture some shots of us in the water! Highly recommend!

   We had the most amazing experience sailing with Fred yesterday celebrating my sister’s birthday. The boat was great and so were Fred and his daughter who was helping him during the day. They set up a picnic table, umbrella, and the chairs on a secluded beach for us and we had the most wonderful several hours of swimming, eating and enjoying the special day. As Fred promised, we found a few dolphins on the way back home which made the day even more special. I will definitely reach out to Fred again when we are in town next and will highly recommend him to family and friends.

   Fred was a GREAT caption! Did a little sightseeing, spent the day at gaspirlla island which was secluded and BEAUTIFUL! The bluest water I have ever seen in Florida. We then headed back and saw 7 dolphins jumping behind the boat, it was amazing. We will definitely be booking again in the future!

   We had so much fun! The boat was beautiful, they took us to a spot we anchored and swam around, Captain Mile and Christina were wonderful. We didn’t have to do anything they took care of everything for us! Can’t wait to come back next time and go again.
