Max

Such an amazing time on this boat for my sisters birthday !

This boat needs A TON of work! The ladder is broken - they threw a rope ladder on the back of the boat near the engine for us to get back onto the boat with. The rope ladder floats - nearly impossible to get back on the boat & our knees were cut from rubbing against the boat. The captain had to help lift us back onto the boat. The raft was torn. The table in the center of the boat was unhinged so they lifted it off the boat. The shade on the back of the boat was lifting from the hinges. 👀🤯

I recently rented a boat from Max and was blown away by their exceptional service. Our captain Hunter was incredibly friendly and communicative, and they even allowed my furry friend to come along for the ride! I highly recommend this boat rental company for anyone looking for a fun and dog-friendly experience on the water.

Our family had an amazing time on the water with Max on the Bentley! Max showed us all the sights of San Diego. We even spotted seals and dolphins and had fun jumping in and floating in the water. Max was so easy to work with and a lot of fun to spend the afternoon with. I would highly recommend booking with Max!

We had an amazing time on our cruise! The boat was awesome and our Captain Mark was great! Highly recommend this boat and Captain Mark!

We had a great time on the boat with Max. Max gave us a whole tour of the bay. He was very nice and the boat was in great condition. We would definitely book again !!

The boat was as advertised. Max was fantastic and communicated excellently. He even stepped in to captain the boat himself when the captain (not his) bailed last minute.

Max was very personable however there were some issues with communication. We met at a location other than scheduled and he was late for the meeting time. The boat size was perfect however, there is not toilet as noted in the description and the sink onboard does not work. There was trash in the storage areas onboard, the towable float wasn't completely inflated but we were told we could use the pump onboard for that.

Great rental experience, no issues at all. The owner was very communicative throughout the process. Owner was also flexible on where we met to pick up the boat. We would definitely rent from this owner again.

We had an absolute blast! This was our first-time cruising with Max and Captain Wolf, and we will 100% be back.

Our clients had a blast!

Great owner and perfect boat for a group cruise. Everyone had a blast.

Max was great. Easy pick up and drop off and boat ran great.

Max was great, on time, boat ran well. Provided helpful information about San Diego bay.

Max’s communication as a host was top notch. The best we could ask for perfect boat for nice cruise around the bay. Definitely booking this again!

The boat experience was fantastic! Boat was very well equipped and in great condition. Coordinating with Max was easy and pleasant. And of course the weather couldn’t have been better. Truly awesome experience. Great value!

My friends and I had the best time celebrating my birthday!

Great captain hunter. My party had a blast.

Great time! Ice cooler provided , Bluetooth speaker, friendly captain.

Great boat . Owner was an excellent communicator.

Rented the boat for my wife’s 40th. B-Day. Enjoyed an amazing day out on the water with wife and kids. Words can’t describe how great the entire experience was. I will do my best though. Max the owner responded promptly to every phone call and email of mine. When I showed up 10-15 late due to traffic. He said “ relax enjoy and take some extra time” I was immediately calmed And I knew I was dealing with a great person of integrity. The boat was phenomenal ! lots of space and really fun to drive! I know exactly where I’m gonna go next time I need to rent a boat without a doubt. Thanks again Max!

Max was an amazing captain. We had the best day and cruise for a bachelorette party. We toured the Bay. Got close to the aircraft carriers and even toured and Coronado keys. Max also brought a float so we could swim for a while. 10/10 recommend. Best day and experience. Thank you, Max!

This was a fantastic boat ride for my sister's bachelorette party! We loved the seating on the boat and ability to connect a phone to play our own music. Our captain was so sweet and made sure we were all comfortable, excited, and having a great time!

Max and Caroline were awesome and super friendly to work with!! Provided easy to understand and clear instructions for boat operations. Put in at Coronado/San Diego Bay Area… Touring downtown SD from the water is a blast and was able to get right next to USS Midway….Continued further south to Silver Strand beach and Wildlife Refuge….much less crowded and very quiet…did a few hours of SUP…boat was great, very comfortable and well maintained…easiest 5 stars ever.. thanks Max…enjoy Hawaii🤙🏄🏽‍♂️

Great day on the bay, boat is very clean and comfortable.

Was the perfect excursion for my bachelorette party, and our captain handled us with patience and grace!

Everything turn out great, this was our second time renting this boat! There are on point to serve us. Had a blast getting in the water with all the group of ladies. Was a perfect day! Thank you Boatsetter.

Great fun boat. Max is a great owner. Second time renting from him. Very responsive. Easy pickup and drop off. Pretty flexible.

Great Boat

Max and his boat were awesome, will definitely rent from him again!

Fantastic experience! Max is great, he showed us everything and was super patient. The boat is in perfect shape and was tons of fun. This was the highlight of our San Diego trip. Highly recommended!

Max was a great host and we really enjoyed this boat. Communication was great, and the run through of the boat was quick and efficient. Would definitely rent this boat again

Great day on the bay!

Our 1st time and the whole trip was so relaxing!
Though I thought our trip was heading to coronado bridge but we just went around coronado area where you can see different vacation houses and boats.

Max was a great host, help me with any issues, the boat is fun to ride

The boat was incredible
The owner was very responsive
Owner is a cool/chill guy
Gives you everything you need to operate the boat safely

Excellent boat

Max was wonderful! Highly recommend boating with him! Boat was clean, came with a cooler of ice (great for us bc we were on vacation), and a plenty load sound system I hooked my phone up to! The kids and adults had a blast swimming and jumping in on the large water raft/float. We can’t wait to come back and boat with him again! It was BY FAR our favorite day of vacation!

Boat was filthy. My hands were black from the steering wheel. Needs major cleaning. Bimini was broken. Engine ran fine. Gearbox seemed ok. Many gauges not working. Dock lines need replacing. Need two more fenders. No tool kit. Life preservers okay. Steering needs to be tightened up, boat wanders at low speed.

The boat was in great condition with great seating

Booked this boat last minute and they responded quickly. Met Max at the dock and within 10 minutes we were out on the water. Max gave us the briefing and recommendations which were very helpful. The boat was so much fun and had a great sound system that the entire family enjoyed. The boat was a great size for our family of seven. I highly recommend renting from Max.

Max was great with everything. He always communicated with us and made it as easy as possible for us. The boat was very clean and fun, I’d definitely book this boat again.

Very nice boat and the rental went exactly as Max promised, he even threw in a few extras at no cost. Will rent from him again and I recommend others to try him out.

Great and comfy boat. Max is an awesome captain. Highly recommend for your SD experience.

Was amazing boat runs fantastic no issue at all and Max was such a great host

Nice

Our time on the boat was very nice. It was an overcast day but the entire family enjoyed being out on the water. The boat easily accommodated the 8 of us. Max, the owner of the boat, was easy to communicate with and answered all of our questions.

Max was super responsive and the boat was perfect- clean, prepped…we had the best day!

We had the most amazing time out on the water! The boat was perfect for our party of 10.

Max was responsive and accommodating. Would rent from him again.

Great boat and great person to rent from! Definitely recommend and would rent again from Max.

Max was a great driver. Our group had a really nice experience seeing the city by boat. Would recommend again!

The boat was pretty beaten up - many areas where the seats were ripped and taped back together. It wasn't bad but certainly would have expected a higher quality boat for what we paid.

Max was super responsive, and Greg was an awesome captain. We had a great time on the boat. Highly recommended!

Great time! This boat was perfect we all had a blast. Will definitely come back and recommend! ☺️

Max was very helpful while I rented his boat. Max’s boat is very clean and well maintained.

The boat was very spacious we were a group of 5 riding was able to connect to bluebooth it had a ice chest with ice ready for our drinks to be put in.

Everything was great highly recommend it

Boat was fun! Max was responsive to all my questions leading up to the booking date. Didn't actually get to meet Max I person as it was another person that helped us at launch and dock.
Overall great experience and will definitely do this again!

10/10 with Max, will rent from him again, good instructor, willing to work with you and perfect communication. Boat was fine with no issues.

Booking this boat for Fathers Day was the best decision ever! Max was great in answering all my questions(and I asked a lot lol), and making sure we booked everything correctly. When we arrived, Hunter the captain was there to greet us. He showed us how to work the boat, where to go for the best views, and made sure we were all comfortable and settled in. He was extremely nice and answered all our questions as well. The boat was very well taken care of, clean, and nice and roomy for a big family

We had great communication with Max prior to the trip. We had Captain Wolf who was very nice, accommodating, and a safe driver. We'll be back again next year.

Max was a very awesome person to have rented the boat from. He was very understanding when I told him I was running late. In addition, he allowed my group and I to return the boat a bit later since we started a bit later than the scheduled reservation. I could tell he really wanted us to have fun. Awesome person, would definitely rent from him again!

The boat was very fast. The speakers were loud.

Great Time on the water with Max. Boat was cozy and the sights were amazing.

A great boat to take to the San Diego Bay! The owner max and hunter were really helpful all the way right from booking to returning the boat.

Awesome experience! The boat is great and Max was super accommodating. Definitely recommend!

Max was very kind and easy to work with. He was there when we boarded and helped get us started off on our adventure!!

It was a great boat and we had a Wonderful time! Would definitely do it again!!!!

Max was very helpful and accommodating! We had a wonderful afternoon on the bay!

Communication could use a little improvement as the initial launch site on the app was way different from where we actually met the boat. San Diego bay was what the app showed (and why we chose that boat to see the fireworks. Instead we had to drive to a hula Vista and it was a ways from San Diego harbor. Measless to say, it took half our time getting to the south end of the bay and fireworks started . Other than that the boat was great, the Capt Hunter was right at home on the water. Great time

Very friendly! Fast response time! Look forward to dealing with him in the future if we want to rent again!

Great boat and super nice owner. Recommended

The boat was a blast and my party had the best time. Max made the entire process really smooth and he was always very responsive and helpful.

Max was very accommodating, friendly, and easy to rent from. We had a good time and would definitely rent from him again!

Everything about the trip was perfect. Max was extremely communicative throughout the entire process and answered all of my questions immediately. The 7 of us had an absolute blast and Max was a top notch captain and overall a complete joy to spend the 3 hour trip with. He took us to see all the great sights and then had the best little spot for us to swim and layout on his raft. We will 100% do this again. It was worth every penny and more!!! Thanks again Max, you are the BEST:)

We had a great day on the boat! Loved the bay. We’ve previously done mission bay. Thanks so much!

As a longtime boater, I appreciated that the boat ran well and handled safely. It was well appointed with appropriate safety equipment and a cooler full of ice. Here were a few minor tears in the upholstery that were patched appropriately. Hey certainly did not detract from our experience.
We hope to take another cruise in the future.

We had a great time celebrating my husbands 60th birthday!
We were fortunate to have lovely weather, although a bit windy. Water does wash into the boat sometimes so good idea to bring any supplies in plastic bin(s). As for the boat, safety was good but they pictures are likely older as there is no table and upholstery patched but nothing that hindered our fun!

I rented this boat out for a birthday and had an amazing experience! Max was very responsive and his instructions of how to get to the boat were very clear as well. The experience was awesome, he drove the boat down to the Coronado bridge and around the USS midway. It was nice to see San Diego from a different perspective. Everything went smoothly and it was overall very relaxing and fun. Would definitely recommend!

Max was great and the boat was amazing to take out into the bay and enjoy the water. Highly recommend his boat. He made check in and check out easy peasy and our adventure was awesome touring the water!

Max was extremely nice and gave us helpful info on where to explore on the boat. Fast responses to my questions and was on time for pickup/drop off.

The boat was clean and in top notch condition, and the bluetooth stereo system made the experience incredible. Make sure to ask him where his favorite seat on the boat is :). Highly recommend Max for any boat rental in San Diego!

This was my 60th birthday and it was the most exciting wonderful, so smooth so beautiful I want to do it all over again. The captain of this boat was great fun kool guy my whole family enjoyed the shofar all week. Really 10 living our best lives and I recommend this one right here. Simple easy fun fun!!!

Max is very easy to rent from; he's responsive to messages and very accommodating.

The boat was perfect! Amazing stereo, cooler stocked with ice, and enough room for all 12 of us to be comfortable. We had a blast!

Amazing host ! We had a great family fun day!

Definitely the best boat for a small group of people (12). There’s seats for everybody and a powerful surround sound that you can control with your phone via Bluetooth.
Thanks to Max and his crew, we had a wonderful time!!!

Max was great and super responsive. Booked last minute and everything was wonderful

I've rented from Max multiple times and every time is great!! He's easy to contact, boat is always in good condition and Max is an all around awesome guy. Anytime I plan for a boat day out with friends, this is my go to!

We (a group of 8 women) had a wonderful time on the water! Beautiful day! The boat was just as pictured and super clean! Plenty of room for us and could easily fit another 2 people very comforatably.

Nice boat, everything went very smoothly.

Everything was perfect! Max was very helpful and always responded super fast with any questions or concerns. He was super kind and his boat was amazing and very fun!

A very fun boat. Well maintained. It was delivered promptly with a full tank if gas and an ice chest with ice! I would definitely rent again.

The boat Bentley we rented from Max was not as shown in photos and was very worn down with several rips on the seat that were duck taped. The location also changed last minute but at least he gave us 30 min extra after I asked for it. The assistant who met us there was helpful. Boat setter system was very easy and convenient. I would choose a boat in better condition next time for the same price.

Our experience was less than expected. First off, our boat was 13 mins late because the throttle was messed up on the boat we originally chose. The owner had to and get a new pontoon boat and the condition of the boat was less than ideal. The boat looked beat up, old and falling apart. The boat drove but it did not look impressive and was definitely different than what we booked. The gate/door for the boat was broken, not connected which is a safety hazard. The seats were falling apart.

We had a blast !

Great boat!

Great overall experience on a fantastic boat!

Great communication and quick to respond. Boat exactly as advertised- we had a blast out on the San Diego harbor for a 4 hour trip and will definitely be back!

Everything went smoothly, boat was ready, clean and fun!

It was a great experience renting from Max. The boat was clean, well-kept, and a lot of fun cruising out in San Diego Bay! I would 100% rent again.

Max was very accommodating and helpful. Boat was exactly as described and we will certainly rent from him again!

Max is easy to talk to, flexible and just a chill dude. We had a party of 4 and a baby and we had a great experience. Max took the time to show us historic monuments and sites during the ride. Thanks AGAIN!!

Max was very helpful and accommodating, the boat was great. 100% would book again.

Thank you so much my daughter had an amazing time!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect for our needs, great service, easy to access, great to work with Max! Hope to do it again soon. Ahoy!

Our boat trip was as fun as we hoped! Max was easy to reach and responded quickly to questions. The boat was perfect. We enjoyed cruising around the bay and seeing the city from the water.

Max was great. Easy, timely boat dropoff and pickup. Very easy-going.

James

Captain was very friendly and owner had great communication. We had a great time!

Owner (Max)responds quickly to our questions . Caroline was very helpful. My friends had a great time. The boat was very clean and safety equipment up to standard and it was reviewed before departure. Routes were highlighted for easy navigation .Sound system was awesome ! We will rent this boat again .

Max is a great host, he sported an extra hour for us when we got confused on the pickup location and had ice for us in a cooler along with a boat that was easy to drive. Great time, simple boat, front speakers were okay but back speakers didn't work but they should be working soon! Overall good day on the bay.

Great trip with Max!

Fun 2 hour excursion around the coronado cays. Pretty affordable if you have a big group.

The boat was awesome and very nice

Was a great Bday gift in part for my Daughter's 23rd Bday. Hunter was great and appreciate the great follow-up!

Worst experience EVER! Boat was a mess and dirty. Surf board was covering a large size hole in the floor. Driver seat was not functional to where a "pillow" was there to sit you above the steering wheel. Boat did not function correctly-died 2x and now being held responsible for damage the owner caused himself. Never again with MAX or BOATSETTER..

Great boat and great owner. We had a fun time exploring San Diego Bay by water.

We had a wonderful boating experience on the San Diego Bay. Max met our group of 10 adults and 2 children under 2, at the Chula Vista marina dock.

The Chaparral Sunesta 224 Elite boat was clean and in great operating condition. We had a 3-hour rental that went by too fast!

This was the third boat rental from Boatsetter with Max coincidentally being the boat owner. This was our favorite boat so far.

We look forward to our next boating excursion in San Diego!

Thank you so much for taking a good care of us, and doing your best for us to have fun!

Great time…and good host!

Boat was great, the trip was fun overall. We had to leave from a different dock than planned (Chula instead of Coronado) and I wasn’t informed of the change until I called to confirm details the day before. The route wasn’t as good as the one we’d originally booked.

The boat was in perfect condition and was so much fun. Max is a wonderful person to work with. He met us at the dock 20 minutes early and gave us great suggestions on where to go. I would highly recommend renting from Max!! We had a wonderful afternoon celebrating my birthday!

We had a wonderful time! The boat is beautiful and Max was super easy to coordinate with. I highly recommend.

Max was awesome. Good times!!! Thank you!!

Max and the Bentley were awesome! Max was friendly and easy to work with. We had a such a good time! Thank you!

Max was a great captain took us to great spots and we had a blast with him! Thanks so much perfect boat trip!

Had a great time!

Boat was great had some issues with time frame booked 7-10, but due to unforseen issues with Harbor Police towing boats, location and time frame was changed to 8-11. I rented a floating mat but was unable for kids to use due to how dark it was at 8pm. 8pm is too late to start a boat ride its all dark and can't enjoy water. Boat was a great boat.

Such a fun boat! Highly recommend

Max was such a great host! He was really communicative and flexible when planning out the day and was a very fun host while actually on the boat.

Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone!

We had a last minute swap from the Yamaha due to a mechanical problem. Max gave us this instead. It was only the wife and I on a easy float around the bay. I appreciate the fact that Max found us another boat, but I had to argue to not be charged the extra $100 by taking his offer to swap. I was refunded $75 after all was said and done. The boat needs a lot of work. The seats are taped up, the stereo is in an inconvenient compartment where the non existent bathroom is. Steering was horrible.
