Morgan 382 Sailboat for charter in Pensacola, Florida
We shared our 24th wedding anniversary with Robert and Carly in their beautiful boat. The only thing we regret is not doing this sooner because they are amazing and it is an experience to cherish. You guys are the best and we will definitely be back! Looking forward for that paella next time! Thank you!!!

Sam was super. He was ready for us when we arrived and departed. He was helpful and his boat was a blast. Everything worked great on it and couldn’t have asked for a better time! We took it out to Crab Island and it did great!

24ft Crest Double Decker Pontoon with Slide
This was a great experience! Thank you for such a great time and great boat! We have rented pontoon boats the last 3 times we have come to Florida (Clearwater area) and this was by far the best experience and nicest boat and simplest process yet. Thank you!

Party in Crab Island!!! For all occasions (Paddleboard, Lily Pad & More)
We had a fantastic time on our boat trip! The boat was in excellent condition—clean, comfortable, and exactly as listed. Our captain, Roy, was friendly, professional, and very attentive throughout the day. When a sudden storm rolled in, Roy handled it with great skill, getting us back to the dock safely and calmly. Carlos, the owner, was also waiting for us at the dock, clearly concerned for our safety and ready to assist—his attention was truly appreciated. Highly recommended—definitely a 5-star experience!
