Dive Into Luxury & Adventure with Our 24' Bentley Pontoon in Cape Coral Florida

Boat was as advertised. Charles was responsive on all questions, in a timely manner, and helpful with loading and unloading. Good price for busy Florida winter time. Great location to launch from. Would rent from him again! We had a great afternoon on his boat.

Winston provided top notch service and had everything set up on the boat upon our arrival. He provided great recommendations on where to get bait and where to find fish. I would strongly recommend booking with Winston and will definitely be returning on our next trip.

Twin Engine Power Boat VIP Adventure in Sanibel/Captiva & the Barrier Islands

Spending the day with Captain Fred was the highlight of our whole week in Florida. No better way to see the sights than from his boat. He was knowledgeable, friendly, relaxed and just so open to whatever we wanted to see. He took us to Cabbage Key as requested and then he showed us some absolutely lovely spots around the area. I mentioned that I wanted to see dolphins and he clearly went above and beyond finding them, coaxing them to play around out boat and just providing an over the top magical experience. It was so hot and his cooler with bottled water was a life saver. If you are into the luxe amenities, he also has a blender for mixed drinks, covered area, bathroom facilities...basically anything you could possibly want. I would highly recommend Captain Fred and we are already looking forward to our next trip!

Twin Engine Power Boat VIP Adventure in Sanibel/Captiva & the Barrier Islands

This is the BEST way to see the sites! Fred will give you many suggestions ahead of time, and help plan whether you want a quiet, or busier adventure. We had great communication prior to trip. Although we had our input as to our likes, we trusted Fred to plan the day. He did not disappoint. We had dolphins swimming in our wake. Explored Cabbage Key, saw tortoises, then off to spend leisure time on a quiet beach. There, Kyle set up beach chairs and umbrella, Fred helped blend up some frosty drinks. AND they are just overall really nice guys. Fun to visit with and very knowledgeable about the area, with many facts about the gulf. We would definitely do this trip again!
