Captain Dan was incredible! You can stop looking for the right captain and boat because this is exactly what you are looking for in terms of a lake minnetonka experience. Dan has a beautiful boat, that easily fit our group, and we were able to do some water sports, hang out at different areas of the lake, stop for a bite on the water and watch a beautiful sunset. Dan was also super flexible and we ended up needing to push our time slot by a handful of hours due to some rain, but ended up getting out on the water for an amazing evening. Cannot recommend this enough, it is worth every penny!
Captain Dan made our anniversary special. He was the ideal captain for a quiet boat ride around the lake and we look forward to having Dan host us with the full family next time and wake boarding with all the toys! If you are hesitating to book with Captain Dan, donât, you will have a blast, everything is taking care of and you can just relax and enjoy your time in the lake!

We had an amazing day on the lake with Captain Dan! He was so knowledgeable and made the whole day feel so relaxed and fun. We swam multiple times at different spots and cruised all over the lake. We will definitely book another trip soon!

Captain Dan was awesome. Friends came in from out of town and we had a few hours to spare before our late afternoon tee time. He got EVERYTHING in - big homes tour, big island chill, and wake surfing which was something we didnât plan on but was so much fun! Highly recommend!
