Took the Bayliner 180 out for a relaxing cruise on the Potomac for a couple of hours and really enjoyed it! The boat was clean, well maintained, and had a nice GPS navigation with depth finder and speedometer. We will definitely go again soon. Orlando was friendly, helpful and responsive. Highly recommended!
