Captain Brian was amazing! Super friendly and knows how to entertain a group of grown ups with kids. We went tubing, hung out and played on the slide, went to the sand bar. So much fun!! It’s no wonder he has so many 5 star reviews. Highly recommend!

Brian was an amazing guy to meet and have captain this trip. Super kind, friendly, fun, helped blow up rafts we brought, allowed us to use his boat’s speaker system for music, was exceptional at communication and making sure we were happy and in great spots on the lake, and just went above and beyond. It didn’t feel transactional at all, felt like a friend. Highly recommend.

Brian was a great captain and super accommodating. Experienced being on Lake Norman. A few of our group members showed up late and allowed us to hangout around his dock, which is incredible as well. A+

Wonderful time with the kids, there were 5 of us and more than enough room, the upper deck slide was so much fun. There were plenty of floating devices to lounge on in the water, super clean and wonderful !

This boat experience is nothing short of amazing! Beautiful 2-story boat with plenty of room for a group of people. We departed and docked right on Lake Norman, the trip was so much fun and seamless process.
- RakeshRakesh
Wonderful, new boat. The slide was so much fun. The main deck is nicely shaded and you can go upstairs for some great breeze and views.
- AustinAustin
Boat was incredible, two stories with seating area on top and a slide as well. 2022 boat, so everything was new. We had 8 people but plenty of room for more with the top deck

Amazing two level boat, fits a lot of people with space to walk around, super clean, brand new, fun water slide, and very comfortable/peaceful on the water.

Captain Brian is more than just a captain. He provided full service during our time on his boat, making sure our group had everything we needed at all times. He is very friendly and let us have fun on his boat if it was our own. Cannot thank and recommend captain Brian enough!

Brian was so attentive to us and the kids. He made sure we enjoyed our time on the boat. He knew all the fun spots on the lake. And even gave us some history on some of the home. We hated to see the ride end. He is an EXCEPTIONAL captain!

Captain Brian is the absolute best and his boat is amazing too. Our kids LOVED the slide and the tube (so did the adults :)) Captain Brian navigated us around the lake and we were able to relax without worrying about driving, anchoring etc. He knows all the fun places. This is the second time we’ve rented his boat/captain services and look forward to doing it again soon! Thanks again!

The boat was so clean and comfortable. Having the shaded downstairs area was great for a break from the sun. So many fun things to do on the boat. We were only out for 2 hours. Would book 3 hours next time.

Brian was amazing , we are new to the area and in the limited time we had on the boat, we saw a good part of the lake in our local area. Thank you Brian!
- StephanieStephanie
Our Lake Norman experience was made whole because of Captain Brian!! He was communicative from the start and made each person on board feel safe and cared for. He showed us various parts of the lake and made the experience so fun! Captain Brian, we could not thank you enough for sharing your boat with us! THANK YOU!

Brian was not just a friendly, skillful Sailor, which he certainly was, but the kind of great guy that offered to take my phone down into the water to take the best pics possible of the kids driving from the top deck since I never planned on getting in the water myself,an kind used the slide first, dove from the second level, and walked up on the sandbar first when he saw the kids we’re a little unsure. We will definitely look for Captain Brian our
- KristinaKristina
The boat was better than expected, and I went in with high expectations. It was sizable and easily fit my large group of 10. The upper deck was an added bonus, the slide was so fun and overall 10/10 experience. However, I would specify when booking whether you want the mat or tubing because our group was looking forward to that experience.

The boat was beautiful. The kids loved the slide and diving off of the second level. Really better than any boat we imagined for this special occasion.
