We had the most remarkable friends tour with captain Jorge and owner Frank . Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that our captain truly cared about us, both the child and adults, and did his best to make this trip memorable. Thank you very much! ♥️♥️♥️

Party Cruiser Rental in Sarasota, Florida
Ian and Reese were very accommodating and made sure our group had a great day. They took us to a huge sandbar that felt like we had our own private island. I would recommend them to anyone wanting a day out on the water in Sarasota. This beats a regular beach day any day.

HURRICANE 12 PASSENGER DECKBOAT W/BLUETOOTH BATHROOM DOLPHIN CRUISE ISLAND HOP
I recently rented a hurricane deck boat from Chris and had an absolutely fantastic experience. Chris was incredibly helpful and even came out to assist me when I encountered a minor issue. Both Chris and his daughter were a pleasure to interact with, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend renting from Chris for a seamless and enjoyable boating adventure!

BRAND NEW! StarCraft Boat in Jupiter
Our experience from pick up to drop off was wonderful ! Our Captain was so pleasant which made our time on the water great. I traveled with our 3 children and husband. We did snorkeling near Peanut Island & water tubing during our trip. Then cruised along the coast line with our music connected to Bluetooth. We take our trips out from New Jersey and so happy to have come across this website and Captain. Boat was clean & spacious. Certainly will be using them anytime we come out on the water. - Thank you again for an awesome time - The Bahr Family !
