This was my second time booking Captain Jim’s sailboat for a photoshoot and it was a great experience- as always! He’s so kind, provides a great and professional experience. He always has snacks and drinks for myself and my clients - along with other great accommodations! Will definitely be booking again!!!
Jim is so great! The experience exceeded our expectations and we had the best time!! He allowed us to bring our own food & drinks! He also provided us with tons of snacks & Gatorade! Jim is the best Captain & we can’t wait to use him again!!!!!
