The boat owner was very responsive in pre-messaging and what was included and needed to be done prior to departure. Captain Courtney was also the best and great with communication. Overall, the experience was very seamless and very organized I was really pleased and would recommend using Captain James and Courtney for any future boat rentals I'd do.

We had a great time in the playpen! Very professional crew and everything went smoothly. Would highly recommend! No better way to spend a hot summer day than out on a boat.

Our family had a great experience with Captain James and our boat captain for the evening, Daniel Chavez. The boat was gorgeous and in perfect condition, the booking, check in and departure process was smooth and Captain Chavez ensured we had a great time. I'll definitely book with them again!

Captain James and Captain John were wonderful hosts. They were clear about procedures and safety that made my group feel really comfortable. The boat was clean and ready for our use. We had a great time at the playpen. I’d definitely book again if in the Chicago area. Thank you again!
