Beautiful Chaparral 35ft Cruiser for rent in Washington, D.C.
We had the best day on the water with Troy. His boat was spacious, clean and exactly as advertised. He also chartered the perfect 3 hour excursion for us over to Georgetown, the wharf and back. We will book again and you should too.

A wonderful private charter with Captain Troy! All the reviews are true. Flawless experience, above and beyond service. We booked for the 250th Fourth of July celebration. Federal Security measures were implemented very short notice, but Captain Troy made it all work. Thank you! Please do not hesitate to reach out to Captain Troy to see if he can accomodate your needs. I venture to say that he can, and most certainly will exceed your expectations.
