Great boat. Great sound system. If you want a fun ride, this is your boat. Pretty good sitting areas for you to socialize for this type of boat. I would recommend over a pontoon.

Richard is truly the man! From the moment we arrived, he had us checked in and on the jet boat within 5 minutes, making the whole process effortless. He was super accommodating, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed for an incredible day. We cruised all around Tampa Bay, stopped at Beer Can Island and Fantasy Island, and even made our way up to Rick’s on the River for lunch. The boat was a blast, the whole group had an unforgettable time. We’ll definitely be booking again soon!

Rich and Jonathan were awesome. My daughter didn’t want to go initially because of light waves. Both were extremely patient and helped me convince her to give it a shot. Once onboard it was all smooth sailing and a blast.
- EricEric
I’ve rented several boats on Boatsetter including the same model boat from other owners. This was by far the best experience I’ve had. Richard loves his boat and takes care of it like it is a member of his family. He made sure to walk through everything I would need to know to have a relaxing day on the water with my family and has plenty of extras onboard to help out with that. If you are looking for a memorable family experience, look no further than this listing!!!!

Richard take his time to show it and explain everything . He did an amazing job.
- JoshJosh
Rich was fantastic. We met him at the boat and he gave us a thorough walkthrough and training before we hit the water. He was extremely friendly and easy to work with. I even left my wallet behind on the boat and he went out of his way to make sure we connected and I got it back. I can't recommend him more! The boat was awesome. It was easy to drive and given the great training, I knew where everything was when it was time for some fun on the water. Will definitely rent again. Thanks, Rich!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and it was all because of Rich. Not only was he extremely thorough in explaining the ins and outs of the boat, but he also made sure we had the best destinations for the experience we wanted.

- CristinaCristina
It was so much fun and a great experience!
- GordonGordon
Richard was very accommodating and an excellent host. I would highly recommend anyone looking to go out into Tampa Bay Waters to consider Richard and his awesome jet boat. One thing I would give props to Richard for is wanting to know where we were going so he could drop the boat at a ramp that was convenient for our float plan. This was his first concern, and without hesitation, he changed the normal ramp that he uses. This is someone who goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service.
- CesarCesar
Fantastic boat and fantastic owner. Exceeded all my expectations.
Thanks Richard for a first class experience. - CarsonCarson
Best in the business. Had an amazing night for Valentine’s Day. Rich had us dialed from start to finish through the booking process. Captain John is a must as well, no better person to book from in the Tampa area.

Richard and the boat were excellent! He arrived early to the launch area to explain how the boat operates. He helped us set up the sound system and gps as well.

At 1st I didn’t know how to take Rich being SOOO surprised that I was driving. He later explained that I was the 1st female to charter from him. Lol. Breaking barriers and stereotypes is what I do. Lol.
But seriously, Rich was very accommodating. Even though the previous folks were out longer than allotted and there was trouble with the boat setter app, he made everything right.
His boat exceeded my party’s expectations. We had a BLAST, and will definitely charter from him again.
