Captain Sean O’ Connor was amazing. I was celebrating my birthday on his yacht and his hospitality was superb! His yacht is beautiful and he took very good care of us. Will definitely be booking him again. We all had a great time. I highly recommend Captain Sean.
Nicholas and Dalton were excellent hosts! They knew exactly where to take us for the perfect sunset views and accomodated a last minute extra person. We had an amazing time and the boat itself had everything we needed and more. Highly recommended!
