The boat was great! We had fun out there. Employees were not that good though. Very unenthusiastic. The boat was an hour late too and they didnt really apologize for that. The folks working here need to realize they are in a people business and try a smile on.

We stumbled upon this boat rental place before enjoying dinner at Tavern & Table, and Im so glad we did! We reserved our time online for the next morning through the website booking service and even completed the liability forms ahead of time. One of the owners, Walker Townsend, walked us through the boundaries where we could take the boat in the bay and other pertinent information, and we were off. We were able to see the city from a whole different perspective in our two-hour time, and we saw plenty of wildlife tooeven dolphins! We will definitely be back next time we are in town and

We had a great time renting a boat for four hours this afternoon. We had never driven a boat in the ocean and didnt know the area and he explained everything and gave us a map. They even park for us and showed us how to drive. Would recommend!
