26ft Double Decker Slide Boat in Saint Pete
This was a great day out on the water with my family. The captain was very friendly and knew of some great spots to post-up at. We drove around for a little, pulled up to a sandbar to swim for about 2 hours, then rode around cruising for the remainder of the trip. Although we ordered a water mat, it wasn't on the boat. Otherwise, a great day!

9 of us went out from 1-7pm to celebrate a 2025 Graduation. We had an amazing time. Hung out at the sandbar for a few hours, went fishing, and cruised around. Boat was comfortable and easy to drive. I extremely recommend.

22 Godfrey Sweetwater Pontoon Island Hopper/ Gas Included
We had an amazing time celebrating a birthday on the boat! Even with a last-minute family emergency that caused a delay, a quick call to Kyle and Captain Tony and they were more than accommodating—making sure we still got the full experience. From cruising around to relaxing at the sandbar, the service was truly top-notch. We can’t wait to come back! P.S. They offer ice bags for a small fee—definitely worth it! Skip the hassle of carrying heavy ice or risking forgetting it altogether.

20FT BENNINGTON PONTOON FUN - TREASURE ISLAND
Kevin was amazing. The boat has a first aid kit, a speaker and a cooler with ice. The boat was very clean. Kevin explained how to go to the sandbars and how to get out of the bridge. Very communicative and friendly.

26ft Double Decker Slide Boat in Saint Pete
We booked a sunset cruise for a private informay wedding ceremony. Frank made the day so much more special. He used his drone for photos and gave us value we could not have paid for. He made us feel at home and a part of his family! I would highly recommend to a friend! We will be booking with him again!! Thank you Frank for such a great time!!
