   Beautiful and manageable 17' Boston Whaler equipped for the River!

   The 17' Boston Whaler was exactly as expected. The boat is in excellent mechanical and physical condition. Directions from Garrett regarding access to the boat, the marina, and the St. Lawrence River were superb. The Garmin GPS included with the boat utilizes Breadcrumb traces which were extremely helpful for navigating in the unfamiliar waters of the St Lawrence. Traveling by boat in the St. Lawrence was a great experience. There are many options for boating to different Islands and to the major towns along the river on the mainland. Slips for temporary docking of the boat are available at many locations. Fueling of the boat at the Spicer Bay Marina was easy and pleasant with the assistance of the attendants at the gas dock. Parking of our personal vehicle at the marina was easy and quite safe. Before leaving the Clayton area a stop at "Captain Spicer's Gallery" (Marina gift shop on Route 12.) was a delight with many interesting items for sale.

   20' T-Top Center Console w/ 150hp equipped for the River!

   Garrett's communication throughout the rental process was great. He strives at making the rental experience positive. His boat ran great the entire week we rented it. The garmin helped us locate fish to hook up on and avoid shallow areas to avoid damaging the prop. The boat also towed a tube with 8 people on board and still made it up on plane just fine (4 adults, 2 teens, 2 pre-teens). Would highly recommend renting from Garrette.

   The boat was great! Everything worked well and was easy to use. The Garmin with the GPS made getting to points of interest very easy! Garrett was very helpful with the entire experience and was always able to get back to me quickly if I had any questions.

   Garrett is a fantastic owner and takes time and attention to make sure everyone is comfortable and confident with the boat before heading out on the river. This boat is a much better option than getting a pontoon from most of the local marinas for twice the price. Perfect boat for the and great time on the St. Lawrence River. We had a wonderful trip from pick up to drop off and Garrett was always available in case of any needs. Highly recommend!

   David was a most excellent captain. We were having a special send off for someone extremely important to us and David went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time. He even got out his accordion and sang a song for the woman of the evening which was very funny and very special. We will absolutely book again. Thanks David and Sara!

   Dave was an incredible host. He was pleasurable, outgoing and fun. Kim, his deck hand, was also extremely helpful and friendly. My friends and I had an amazing time celebrating my birthday. The boat is beautiful and Dave offered us some of the best views of the city. I’m extremely thankful for this positive experience. Thank you very much for the hospitality.
