captain and mate (wife) were excellent
5 hour trip up to 3 people on September 14, 20252 adults

The Captain and Mate were awesome and professional the whole time. We had an incident due to another boat and the crew was professional the whole time. Worked hard and fast to assist the other boat with untangling their equipment from ours and getting is back up and running. we caught our limit and had tons of fun.
