The experience was outstanding. The boys caught the quota and left exhausted. The captain and crew were jovial and helped with everything. Boat was very clean. I am planning on returning and would highly recommend this boat to anyone that asks. Thank you for a great time!

We are so thankful for the Caption Tim and crew! The set the gear up - gave a lesson and it worked!! Told us how to move the reeling in the fish! A few family members had nausea. He had ginger ale and buckets! He also put our favorite tunes on! Sirus Radio. This is absolutely a fishing boat.
