22ft Nautic Star 2200 Sport for Rent in Bonita Springs
Nick was great! He was in touch regularly before and during our multi-day rental. He was very accommodating by delivering the boat to the dock at the house we rented, and, he even took us out for a tour of the channel markers and sandbars, so navigation was a breeze! I will definitely rent from Nick again!

Bay Boat Dolphin/Shelling Adventures in Marco Island, Florida
We had a great afternoon on the water with Jonallen. He was kind and courteous and knew all of the places to go for a good time. Even the teenagers in our group had a blast and they’re not always easy to please! It was an awesome experience and I’d recommend to anyone who’s looking for a fun time on the water.
