Trophy Bayliner Center Console – 20ft boat photo Trophy Bayliner Center Console – 20ft
I liked the fact that Dana answered my inquires right away on email. Then Rafael (her husband) was very prompt texting me about dropping off the boat. The boat ran good and I used the boat for 2 days. Rafael met me at the boat ramp on Sunday at exactly the time we planned. He was easy to get a hold of. There were no problems with the boat and everything ran well.

We booked this boat excursion for a bachelorette party, and it was honestly the highlight of our trip! Parker was super friendly and made sure we had the best time from start to finish. The vibes were perfect—great music, drinks flowing, stunning views, and plenty of photo ops. Everything was super well organized, and made the bride feel extra special. Highly recommend for any group looking to have a fun, stress-free, and unforgettable day on the water! Wish we could’ve gone longer.
