    Matthew’s ODay was great and easy to sail. We have a similar boat back home and it was great to spend the day in Tampa Bay!
    Even saw several dolphins and a sea turtle while sailing.
    I would recommend using the paid parking lots if bringing more than one car -most of the parking in the area has a 2 hour time limit.
    Great location - thanks again Matt!!

    Great location. Great boat. New mainsail with lazy jacks - very easy to hoist and flake. Matt is very accommodating and a good communicator. We will be sailing Cool Change again!

    Matthew was cool and knowledgeable and his boat was perfect for cruising around the bay. Will definitely book with him again next time we’re in town!

    Boat as described. The size of the wheel limits mobility in the cockpit. We had 4 people which was OK, 6 would be really tight. The boat has been well maintained and everything worked fine. Matt was great at checkout.

    Matt received us at the gate right when we arrived. He answered all our questions and guided us through the rigging process. Since our booking was the last of the day, he kindly offered us a flexible return timeframe. Though we ended up coming back on time, we were sailing at ease in the bay. His boat is clean and well maintained. I will book his Cool Change if I go back to St. Pete for sailing.

    This experience couldn't have been better. Matt communicated well during the booking process and gave great directions to the marina. He was thorough explaining how the boat was set up and gave good tips for getting into and out of the marina. His attitude, knowledge, and personality made the whole experience a breeze.

    The boat was in good shape, fun to sail, and overall was exactly what we hoped for. Everyone drove away saying "we would definitely charter that boat again."

    The whole experience was great. Cool Change sails great and working with Matthew was a breeze. Pick up and drop off was easy, everything was where he said it would be, and boat operates flawlessly. The lazy jack system makes flaking the main extremely easy! I will definitely be taking Cool Change out again.
