50’ Sea Ray Luxury Yacht on the Potomac. Experience luxury!
I’m a super honest reviewer, so here’s my take: Captain Mike was excellent from start to finish. We spoke a couple of weeks in advance, and he took the time to understand exactly what I wanted. He was professional, respectful, and carried himself with great etiquette throughout the entire process. Although we got a slightly later start than planned, he communicated clearly and even gave us a little extra time on the water to make up for it—which was much appreciated. I strongly recommend Captain Mike and would definitely book this boat again. Solid experience all around.

We went out for an afternoon sail with Capt Alberto and had an amazing time. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day with perfect wind. Capt Alberto shared interesting stories and taught us a good bit about sailing along the way. Highly recommend!

Pro line Center Console Magothy River - Perfect for fishing exploring cruising
Had an absolutely wonderful time. Boat is in good condition. Motor is very quiet. Boat has a very smooth and dry ride. Location is great. It has easy access to the Bay Bridge but also has plenty of sheltered waters in the river. Scott was great to work with.

I enjoyed an afternoon on Richard's boat touring Washington DC on my birthday. It was a lot of fun and the captain was very attentive and the service was very good. I would definitely do it again and I recommend it 100%. Thank you for everything, Richard.

53' Luxury Yacht for Charter in Washington, District of Columbia
The Black Howard exceeded all expectations from start to finish. Captain Tay was incredible ; he communicated clearly, was super flexible, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. The boat itself was beautiful and well-kept, and the ride was honestly the highlight of my birthday. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!
