Can’t recommend Captain John enough! We chartered with him for an annual friends’ boat day and we all agreed that this was the best experience we’ve ever had. He was professional, flexible in terms of scheduling, and the boat was spacious and comfortable for all 11 of us. His captain and deckhands took great care of us, always making me sure we were safe, having fun, and had drinks and snacks on hand. We can’t wait to charter with Captain John again, thank you for a perfect day!

We had a good time on our charter despite the weather. John was very kind. There were, however, some difficulties prior to the charter with a double booking and had to accommodate a different boat and departure time in the few days before the charter which required a lot of back and forth. The boat was in great condition, absolutely stunning and the sound system was great! And it was very kind of John to also provide ice and coolers for our charter.
You’ll get directions to the departure location when you make a booking.
Full refund up to 2 days prior.
