   18' Maxum Bowrider Sports Boat - Ready for Sun, Sea and Good Vibes

   Ryan was fantastic. Ever since the initial booking communication was great and prompt. The boat was in great condition, and Ryan gave a good briefing to us so we were very familiar prior to getting started. Any questions I had were answered within minutes at the longest (mostly instantaneous). Looking forward to more rentals with him, I found “my boat guy” for sure. Ryan is extremely trustworthy and helpful - highest recommendation 🤙🤙

   2014 Parker 2520 XL Fishing Boat in San Francisco

   Thanh is a very pleasant person, and very easy to work with. The boat is very comfortable and capable for the always changing weather and sea state of San Francisco Bay. The wide 10’ plus beam makes for plenty of room in the stern. The boat is fully equipped, with engine trim and trim tabs to adjust the boat to any sea state. The enclosed cabin allows one to get out of the weather, and second station allows one to run the boat from the stern cockpit. The electronic Garmin chart plotter allows for multiple display set ups and is very capable. Tanh is very knowledgeable and did a very thorough job in explaining the functionality of all aspects of the boat. Thanks to Tanh and his wonderful boat, we had a fabulous day on the water!

   2014 Parker 2520 XL Fishing Boat in San Francisco

   Thanh was responsive, clearly communicative and on-time. His boat was as represented and well stocked, clean, fueled and ready to go. He was, also, willing to provide us with coolers and other supplies, if needed. The Parker was a perfect platform: stable, comfortable, safe, effiencient (14-15gph@25-31mph@4200-4400rpm), and, let's be honest, FUN. The remote helm station makes an incredible platform for single handing while fishing. Bait well and fish box all in good working order and kicker was plumbed/wired/controlled separately and was very simple to use. We ran 70+ miles and hada great tour of the Bay area from San Rafael south of Oakland, beyond the Golden Gate bridge and Sausalito. Great platform for all conditions and Thanh is a nice person to work with. Highly recommend.

   2014 Parker 2520 XL Fishing Boat in San Francisco

   Wonderful boat for Bay Area cruising and fishing. Highly recommend to anyone thinking about a day/half-day trip in SF. The boat itself is roomy and well equipped, including comfortable seating areas in the stern. Thanh was an excellent host -- very communicative and accommodating when we unexpectedly needed to shift our start time. He rented us some rods and reels for halibut fishing and even gave us some intel about where to go (we caught enough for dinner!). We would certainly rent again!

   Best Ride in town. Bay Tour, Sunset/Dolphin Cruise, Fishing Charter...

   We had the most incredible day out on the water with this boat charter! From start to finish, everything was seamless and professional. The boat was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. Our captain was friendly, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to make sure everyone was having a great time. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing time on the water — we’ll definitely be booking again!
