This boat was exactly as listed and performed extremely well. Perfect for fishing or just enjoying the day on the water. Fit with lots of cup holders and fishing rod holders. Was perfect for our day out on the water. Will be renting again.

My friend and I scheduled a very last minute boat trip with 2 Blondes and Captain Rickey and they exceeded all of our expectations. They were prompt with their communication and willing to fit us despite us having given them short notice. We had a wonderful time on the boat! Captain Rickey was awesome and had a great eye for pointing out ocean wildlife. We saw a dolphin and a pod of rays that could have easily been overlooked. He even stopped and turned around to ensure we got to see it up close and personal. I would recommend this boat and captain to a friend!

2 Blondes Boat owners were very responsive via chat and quickly found a Captain for our last minute boat trip. Their boat was in good condition and had lots of room for our family of 8, ranging from young kids to grandparents. The transition to communicate with Captain Jon was seamless. He was very responsive to my texts and arrived on time. His warm hospitality and enthusiasm for the sea was delightful. Throughout our journey to Beer Can Island and back, Captain Jon was engaged with our family and we had a great experience! Captain Jon provided us with ample time to explore the pristine shores and soak in the breathtaking scenery. He even offered insightful recommendations on the best spots to explore, ensuring that we made the most of our time on the island! Thank you, Captain Jon & 2 Blondes Boat Owners for an unforgettable boating experience! My family will cherish the memories for years to come!

We had a great time on the waters going around the AMI area. Captain Mark was extremely insightful and he felt like part of our family shortly into the guided boating day. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to spend a few hours on the waters while visiting the AMI. Captain Mark was so accommodating too as we made the reservations pretty last minute. We will definitely hit up Captain Mark the next time we are in the area.
