Deck Boat Rental - Anna Maria Island - 2
Had a great experience with dealing with Cyrsten and she was very prompt to answer all our questions before we decided to rent the boat. Captain Marc was terrific with communicating with us after we decided to rent and explaining everything we needed to do and where to meet. He was awesome when we got to the boat in giving us full explanation of everything we needed to know. Wish we had been able to rent for longer, but will for sure next time we are in the area.
