    The boat is in excellent conditions and the 300hp Yamaha moves the boat perfectly. Looking forward to rent again

    One of the nicest boat I've captained, planes very quickly and handles the waves very well.

    Nick was awesome. Great contact from the start. Very helpful, offered many things for our day like snorkeling equipment. The boat was in excellent condition and handled extremely well. Nick ran down all of the features and instructions which made us feel at ease to enjoy our day. Nick also recommended places to snorkel and we say tons of fish and reefs. The highlight was a school of dolphins!!!!

    Great boat and all around smooth experience. Nelson was very responsive from the very beginning, always responding to texts/emails. He was on time at the dock and the boat is in great shape and ran perfectly. No issues with billing as well. Definitely recommend and look forward to renting again.

    Great experience, he's very understanding and down to earth and the boat itself is pretty well maintained and performs like a beauty, if you're a starter or a pro it's definitely a boat to look out for.

    I was going to take the boat out solo but Nick offered to guide us. I am so glad we took him up on his offer. I cannot say enough about his ability to find fish. He worked so very hard to put me and my son onto good fish. He has top of the line equipment and plenty of it. This was the very best guided fishing trip I've been on.

    Nice boat, roomy & runs smooth, decent price, no sounds system or trolling motor, and the GPS is too small for the boat, Nelson runs a little late, but We had a Great Time, Nelson is nice, shows you how everything works, and really no complaints. We would definitely rent from him again.

    Awesome trip. Nick stuck to his plans of how and where and halfway through the trip we started landing Yellow Fins, Wahoo and Shark. Was well worth the money. Great captain and great time. Will do it again!!!!

    We had a fabulous time on Nelson's boat. We rented it for 3 days and dove and fished in the Keys. It was well maintained, equipped with more than we needed and had no issues with it. Nelson worked with me on delivering it and made it all work. I would certainly contact Nelson again and recommend him to any one needing a boat.

    Excellent boat for a family trip to the sand bars and snorkeling to the reef, we had a great time!
    We spent two nights at the Boca Chita Key camping site where we had a blast with the kids.
    The boat is comfortable and fast the only thing I would add for family trips would be an additional Bimini top so that the whole family can enjoy the shade.
    Thank you Nelson!

    Nelson and his boat were awesome. Nelson is well spoken and dedicated to maintain a pristine machine, he worked with us on our rental after we had a few hiccups and went out of his way to insure we had a great time. I would strongly recommend Nelson and Everglades boat to my family and friends.
