Manitou Auruora LE 230 Tritoon 24ft 250HP ! Delivered
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Experience on the Water! Today’s boat trip was absolutely amazing from start to finish! Joe was incredibly friendly, professional, and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey. The boat itself was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped with everything we needed to relax and enjoy the beautiful views. We cruised through stunning waters, spotted dolphins, and even had time to swim and soak up the sun. The atmosphere was fun, laid-back, and perfect for making great memories with friends and family. This was truly the highlight of our day, and we can’t wait to do it again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch boating experience! Thank you for an incredible day! ⛵🌞🌊

Jason was fantastic! He was very friendly and greeted us right when we pulled up. We had two cars, and parking was plentiful and convenient. His boat was spotless, well-maintained, and extremely comfortable for our group of nine plus two coolers. The ride from his house through the canals was easy to navigate and incredibly peaceful. Jason also gave us great tips on where we might spot dolphins—and he was right! We saw plenty of them on our way back, which made the trip even more memorable. The boat was very fuel-efficient, and the entire rental experience was smooth from start to finish. I highly recommend renting your next boat from Jason—you won’t be disappointed!

217 Hurricane 21’ Deck Boat
Excellent to work with and boat was exactly as advertised. We had a beautiful day on the water and everything was perfect. I would highly recommend this boat for a family looking to have a great time out on the water and a great experience. Look forward to renting again.

Wojciech is a top communicator, very helpful and perfect to reach. It was our first private boat trip and we told Wojciech about this while picking up the boat, so he took some more time to explain us everything in detail. We delayed booking the boat day by day, caused by the typical summer thunderstorms. We woke up today and decided to book a boat today and send our inquiry to Wojciech. Within two minutes he already replied and send us the quote. So we could collect the boat within 2.5 hours after the initial inquiry. We had a blast with his boat enjoying the beautiful nature and Sanibel beach.

the best-looking pontoon out there. With 300 hp, its all you need for an amazing weekend or day on the water. Jeff was so easy to work with and very thorough in explaining the safety feature and how to operate the boat. Will definitely rent again from Jeff.
