Tom & Kyle took my family & I out on the “Happy Day Today” boat. It was a beautiful, clean, well maintained boat with plenty of space to lounge! They took great care of us and went above and beyond to make sure every single one of us were enjoying ourselves! Highly recommend!!!

The four of us had a great time and each of us got to bring in multiple fish. The boat is clean and in great condition. The captain gave us several fish options and locations. The friendly first mate was hard working and enjoyed what he was doing. We have no complaints and would do again
