    Jerry was fantastic. We took our dog out on his boat, and we had an incredible experience. Jerry made the entire process effortless, and the boat was an absolute joy to drive.

    Jerry was the best! He was super accommodating and very communicative - he answered all my questions before and during the trip. We had a blast on his boat and he had all kinds of water equipment for us. We were able to inter-tube and he even got us a bag of ice. Would 100% recommend Jerry and his boat for future trips - in fact we’re looking to go again this summer with him.

    Jerry is the man! I went on vacation with my family and another it was such a unique way to see Seattle. We brought (2) three year olds and they loved it, Jerry even bought life jackets for them. The boat itself is more than capable for cruising around!

Hi, I’m Jerry – your host and fellow boating enthusiast! Originally from Boston and a proud U.S. Navy veteran with 10 years of service, I’ve spent a good part of my life on the water — and I’ve loved every second of it. Boating isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s a passion I’m excited to share. Whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or create unforgettable moments with friends and family, I believe that some of life’s best memories are made on the water. You can’t put a price tag on those memories — but you can make them happen. So don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to help you enjoy an amazing experience out on the lake and make stories you’ll be telling for a lifetime. Let’s get you cruising!
