Our trip was amazing! Far surpassed our expectations. The boat was so spacious and a blast to hang out on all day. Captain was so friendly and knew all of the good spots to take us for lounging, playing beach games, or taking photos. He knew it all. He was flexible with our plans and did everything he could to make sure we had the best time. He is definitely educated, safe and can surely be trusted to boat you around. Best boating experience on the gulf!

Stephen was really friendly. I had a really big crew of 16 he was able to divide my group into 2 of his boats. For all of us go to the same place and have fun together. We rented for 4 hours and we had soooo much funnn that 4 hours weren’t enough. It was my little girls Bday plus Father’s Day. She and her cousins had an amazing time. All 4 fathers in my crew had a blast and where able to enjoy they’re day with their kids . It was yet the best fathers day gift for them. Stephen is highly recommend super friendly, very humble and respectful.

Had an awesome time with Captain Steve! He took us up and down the Hillsborough River and then out into the Bay. He had some wonderful suggestions of islands to visit and we ended up partying in some cool spots in the area that we'd never been to. Super friendly and definitely personable. A+ would recommend.
