Christmas-Half day trip
Half Day Trip – Inshore (PM) on December 22, 2022 • 4 adults • 1 childCaptain Steven was truly a class act. Very professional and knew exactly what he was doing. I took my boys (18,16,14,5) and had one of the most memorable moments of all time. I’m already planning more trips with Captain Steven in the near future. Thank you for the experience we’ll never forget.
