Great experience from start to finish. Do not hesitate to book! Note: the boat isn’t the fastest in the world, but it’s in great shape, priced affordably and the staff that helps you is super nice. Thank you for an easy experience!!

John was responsive and flexible! I had another boat booking fall through the morning of my planned trip and I was able to coordinate a rental with him starting just a few hours later. Boat was lovely and easy to drive! Looking forward to booking again.
PW
We had a fantastic time exploring Lake Union and Lake Washington. I’d say this boat is better suited to stay in Lake Union, as the engine is a bit small for Lake Washington, but we were able to navigate it.

My experience with John Ahoy's boat was absolutely incredible! The boat was well-maintained, and John provided excellent service, making the whole trip a memorable and enjoyable adventure on the water.
