14' Fishing Boat Rental near White Bear Lake
Renting from John was an absolutely phenominal experience, He was very easy to communicate with and the whole process was a breeze. I will be renting from him again and would recommend him to anyone who is interested in a day on the water.

I would highly recommend renting from Jason. He took time to explain everything and was very communicative when it came to the rental process, where to meet, and instructions of the boat. We had so much fun!!

Great affordable pontoon boat with top notch sound and a captain if you choose.
So kind, thoughtful, and fun! Had the BEST time ever, even with the slight rain. Can’t wait for a next trip!

Private Tours on 27' Baja Boss Speedboat in Chicago with Captain Bob
Had an amazing day on the water during the Air and Boat Show with Captain Bob as our guide. He's helpful in giving instructions to the dock, helps set up music and ensures a comfortable and safe experience. Due to his background in the CFD, he knew exactly where to anchor the boat so we could see great views of the air show. It was a worthwhile and memorable experience to share with friends and family!

Private Tours on 27' Baja Boss Speedboat in Chicago with Captain Bob
I can’t understate how incredible Captain Bob is at what he does. He’s not only Incredibly knowledgeable but strives to make memorable moments during his trips. We booked a 2 hour boat ride, 1 hour speed boat and another hour sunset tour. Captain Bob set us up for multiple mini photo shoots with the perfect backdrops and took the pictures himself. An incredible value for the cost. He made my birthday extremely special. Thank you Captain Bob!!
