Brian was a great host. Met us at the ramp and waited until we went to the store to gather food and drink. Allowed us to stay out a a little late. Boat was great as well with all updated technology for pleasure or fishing. Will def rent again in the Sarasota are!

Brian was prompt and efficient in getting us his boat delivered right to our dock. The boat is perfect for inshore fishing around the bays with the family and the shooting out those great spots offshore. We caught: snapper, grouper, trout, pompano, Spanish mackerel, sea bass, snook, sheepshead and several other species on this boat. The ride was super dry even on windy days. The highly recommend this boat for fishing or just cruising. I’ll definitely be renting it next time I’m down in the Sarasota. Thanks Brian!!

Brian was fantastic! We had a lot of questions, and he was so patient and kind in answering them all. He made the process so easy and was very accommodating. We will definitely be renting from him again.

This boat is exactly like the description says, a fun machine! Brian was awesome to work with too! The weather forecast changed and we decided to add an additional day to our multi day rental, but our original rental was unavailable that day. He came through with another of his boats that worked out great and made sure we got on the water. Very informative in his walkthrough and a good communicator.

Excellent boat, excelent condition, excellent customer service. We used it to cruise up/down the ICW for a day. Much better boat and quality than the last time I used Boatsetter! I have put this on my priority list next time I’m in Sarasota.

Very clean and well taken care of boat! The location was great as well. Brian was very punctual, and he even stayed to help our family onto the boat with all of our stuff! Would definitely recommend him to family boaters.

Great experience working with Brian and very satisfied with his services. His boat ran beautifully, is clean and well maintained. He went above and beyond to ensure our trip went smoothly and was flexible with scheduling delivery and drop off. I would not hesitate to rent from Brian again and will.

Renting from Brian was a great experience! He had a great boat for our party of 5 adults and 3 children. It was a new, well kept, boat with great amenities! He had it all ready for us and loaded it up when we were finished! It was a smooth experience from beginning to end. He even filled up the gas for us after we were done at a more cost friendly gas station instead of charging us marina gas prices. We even left an expensive item on the boat and he was willing to ship it to us or meet us to return the item! Definitely would rent from him again!

Brian was super accommodating and helpful! Would totally recommend renting from him if you get the opportunity! His NauticStar Baots 231 Coastal was a beauty out on the water and created a day full of fun for my entire family! Can't wait to rent from him again!

Great day on the water. Brian was great.
- MaryMary
We had an awesome vacation with Brian's boat! It was so clean and well kept and worked like a charm for us! It is the perfect fishing boat, combined with all the creature comforts you could want for more entertainment/cruising to the islands and sandbars! Brian is a great guy and easy to work with. He knows his boat and was very helpful with any questions we had. He answered us immediately with any information we needed and was very helpful in giving us hints for fishing and cruising! We will definitely rent from Brian again! If you want an honest, upfront boat rental, you won't go wrong with Brian's boats. Thanks Brian for making our vacation perfect!

- artart
Easy peasy. Nice guy, nice boat. We met at a ramp on AnnaMaria and Brian already had the boat in the water and ready to go. Boat is well maintained. Brian was very easy to communicate with and made the process quite straightforward. All good. Thank you Brian.
- MatthewMatthew
Brian was fantastic! Excellent boat orientation if you are inexperienced in the area. He gave great suggestions on where to take the boat. He was so accommodating; ferrying me from his home port to my closest public ramp. The boat was terrific as well. Clean and prepared. Dock lines, fenders, safety gear; all ready to go. 200hp outboard with electric throttle is so nice to drive. Ask about the trim tabs; they’re super useful and tremendously helpful! Use them!
