This boat was AMAZING for my bachelorette party!!! When another boat cancled on us last minute Tristan had this boat which was wayyy nicer and more fun! He was great at communicating quickly too! Captain Michael was also a blast! Couldn’t have had a better experience!
WE HAD A GREAT TIME! The boat is absolutely amazing, very clean and super nice, Michael was so great at answering any questions and communicating with us and definitely set us off on a good tone for our trip! In all a 10/10 time we will definitely be coming back on this boat!

Great service from Meridian Yachts, the actual owner/operator of this boat. The captain, Bishop was knowledgeable, friendly and a great guy. The support crew did an excellent job getting us ready to go on time and with a smile. The boat was in great shape and fir our group of 6 easily. Please note that captains fees are separate from what you see on the GetMyBoat website or App. This is not clearly stated.

After a trip fell through with 15-hour notice, Gianny was prompt in accepting our VERY last-minute booking that ended up as an incredible day for 12 girls. The boat was amazing and Derrick made sure we had everything we needed before getting on board. He was extremely accommodating and parked us in a perfect spot to watch the practice runs for the Air and Water Show. Would definitely book again.
