   42' Luxury Mediterranean Yacht - 3 Boats Available! Discount on Weekdays!

   We had an amazing time on Captain John's yacht! The boat was very nice, spacious, and exactly as described. It was perfect for a group of girls celebrating a college reunion! Captain John helped coordinate and get us set up right before takeoff, then we had Captain Dee and Hussein with us for the ride. They were all great and courteous! FYI - you will need to reach out to their list of captains to confirm (this was told to us the week of), but honestly, it sounded like they made sure someone was available regardless, so likely a formality. Definitely would book again for future Chicago trips!

   Sea Ray Express Cruiser 340 Luxury Motor Yacht in Chicagoland

   We had an amazing time! There's nothing like being on the water and we can't wait to do it again! We got stuck in the rain for about 20min but Captain Tia and the crew were so professional and calm, we knew we were in good hands. It didn't put a damper on things at all! They made it easy to stay positive and keep the party going once things cleared up.

   2003 Cobalt 240 Bowrider Rental in St Joseph, Michigan

   Captain John and his boat were both amazing! The kids loved it and he tailored it to exactly what we wanted to do and see. He made us comfortable and even let the kids drive which made their day! We will definitely book with him in the future! It was worth every penny to get out on Lake Michigan without worrying about driving a boat ourselves! Book with Captain John and you won’t be disappointed!

   Cobalt 240 Bowrider for rent in New Buffalo (Captain Included!)

   John was PHENOMAL! We had a larger group and he was very accommodating. We did multiple shorter trips during our time which allowed everyone to get a turn on the boat. We also had kids with us and he was wonderful teaching them boat safety and making sure they were all comfortable. We highly recommend John if you are in Southwest Michigan and want a fun cruise of the coast!

   20' Lund Bass Boat for 3 in Chicago, Illinois

   I honestly didn’t expect to walk away from this trip with a whole new hobby, but here I am—hooked for life. Guy has this way of making the entire experience feel effortless and exciting, whether you’re a total beginner or someone who’s been at it for years. From teaching the basics with real patience to creating an atmosphere that’s both laid-back and full of energy, he made it easy to fall in love with fishing. The way he explained the gear, read the water, and shared his stories made every moment out there on the water feel like something special. You can tell he truly loves what he does, and that kind of passion is contagious. I went in thinking this was just a one-time adventure, but now I’m already planning my next trip—and buying my own gear. Can’t thank Guy enough for turning what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend into the start of a lifelong obsession. If you’ve ever been on the fence about trying fishing, let Guy be the reason you dive in—you won’t regret it.
