What a fantastic experience! I rented Alex's boat yesterday and had an absolute blast with my group of 12 friends. From the moment we arrived, Alex was super friendly and welcoming. He showed us around the boat and made sure we felt comfortable and at ease. The boat itself was immaculate - clean, well-maintained, and organized to perfection. Alex had thought of everything to ensure our day on the water was stress-free and enjoyable. His assistant was also super helpful in getting us settled and answering any questions we had. Alex himself was an absolute pleasure to be around. He was knowledgeable about the area and gave us great recommendations for things to do and see. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he really made us feel like we were part of his own little crew. We had an amazing time cruising around the water, taking in the sights, and enjoying each other's company. The boat handled beautifully, and we were able to fit all 12 of us comfortably. Overall, I would highly recommend renting from Alex. His attention to detail, warm hospitality, and love for boating make for a truly unforgettable experience. We can't wait to come back and do it again!
