Richard

Great trip on richards boat, it’s spacious. Thanks

Had a great time, great to work with. Would recommend!

Richard was truly great. Showed us the points to go and not go. Really nice boat and we had a fabulous time.

The boat was absolutely perfect. Very clean, everything was explained to us quickly and clearly, and communicating with Richard and his wife was very easy. We look forward to boating with them again!!

Great experience on the water with this pontoon! Our family of 7 adults all fit comfortably with room to move around. It was easy to operate and we had no problems at all while out on the water. Richard was very prompt in responding to our questions and he was very calm and easy going about the whole process. We loved it and would do it again!! Thanks!!

Boat worked as it should and Richard was very accommodating.

A++ Service from Richard, had a great time....looking forward to another trip. Clean reliable vessel and equipment. Thanks again Richard !!!

Richard was great. He even adjusted our time because part of our party was an hour late. Then we went to the wrong dock and couldn't find him, but when we did, we boarded with no problems at all and the day was great. We will definitely contact Richard again on our next trip to St. Petersburg.

Richard was on time, which was great and informed us of everything down to the minor details. When we had questions and reached out, Richard responded back immediately. The boat only had 1 anchor at the time of us using it but we were able to make it work without any major issues. Renting from Richard made our Memorial Day on the water a blast. We will definitely rent from Richard again. Thanks

We really enjoyed being able to go out Shell Key and have the comfort of the boat with shade while taking breaks from the sun.

Awesome boat rental, great service, would definitely recommend! Everyone enjoyed the experience.

Great communication. Nice pontoon. Family enjoyed our day on the water. Super accommodating host. Would rent again.

Richard was great! We had such a good time with no problems at all. Seamless: just get on the boat and have fun, then step off the boat and go home. Great day on the water!

Richard was awesome especially when we wanted more time. Thank you. Had a great time.

Richard was prompt, professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He explained all the operational and safety instructions of the vessel. The vessel was comfortable for our party of 6. He recommended places to visit for the timeframe we rented for. We hope to return again so. It was a fun and beautiful day for our all girls trip.

Had a great time..Richard made it very easy...except I wasn't sure about parking..paid to park and still got violation for improper parking..other than that had a great time.

Great communication, very nice guy, boat was perfect for our large family!

Richard was very accommodating and responsive. Boat was clean and as advertised. We had a great time.

Excellent experience!

Amazing experience. Highly recommend!

The boat was in great condition and spacious. The family had a very good time. Getting started on the boat and drop off was very easy.

Great owner! Very helpful and accommodating. Would definitely book again.

Staff was amazing. Communication was impeccable, they were super responsive and were able to help with all concerns and get all my questions answered. Customer service experience was 5 stars, the Pantoon we got was 3 stars, (run down, seat had a large (20inch) rip on it, boat wheel was very tight and rubber was coming off so my husband's hands were black and hard to wash off. So I give over all experience 4 stars, because staff was truly great.

STAY AWAY. DO NOT RENT. TERRIBLE BUSINESS. T BOAT IS IN HORRIBLE CONDITION — Richard owns two boats, neither of them are pictured. He came 10 minutes late, We had an 8 hour trip, boat completely ran out of gas at hour 5- left us stranded in the bay for 1 hour to bring more gas. I took photos of the motor clearly leaking gas. Richard did NOTHING to compensate loss of time. He and his wife are EXTREMELY RUDE and quickly got offended when I asked for compensation. (Guilty conscience)

Thank you. We enjoyed our time on the water and the special time with family in memory of my deceased daughter and scattering her ashes. Your communication on usage f rhr biat and nap of bay was helpful. Hope you are healing from your injury. Blessings.

Had a great time boat was very clean. He was very responsive…. Easy to connect

Great boat. Ran flawlessly.

Friendly owners, boat was clean and as pictures, convenient pickup and drop off.

Boat Ran good! Richard was a pleasure to deal with!

Richard was awesome! Will be back!!

We had a great time!!! Richard was great.

Last minute booking, fast and easy. The boat's canvas is a bit old, but that didn't stop it sailing well and having a good time. Thanks Richard!

Rented the boat in the picture but ended up getting some old pontoon. Classic bait and switch.

Everything was great, Roxhard provided everything we needed, including the gas! Which saved us time and money so we could enjoy our outing even longer 👍🏽

I've rented many boats but the pontoon boat we received wasn't in the best looking shape. Boat details said it had a swim ladder, depth finder and sonar. It did not have any of these. Richard said he could tell we weren't impressed and argued with me after the rental that I should've told him. He then proceeded to tell me how I should've told him how I felt from the beginning and blamed me that I made him feel uncomfortable for not telling him. Horrible customer service and confrontational!

Had the most amazing day! Richard was so accommodating and kind. Boat was clean and so welcoming! Amazing deal! We will book again.

Boat and host were both great. Was able to take boat out to sand bars and have a good time on 6hr rental. Would recommend.

Richard was very friendly and helpful, the rental was easy and overall a great experience. The boat exceeded the expectations and I would definitely recommend it and use them again.

Great experience!

The boat ran well and we had a nice time, however, I didn't feel the boat was as the pictures appeared. The canopy was torn in spots, the depth and radio didn't work and steering took a bit of effort.

Great communication, smooth transaction with Richard. Dee is a super nice guy. highly recommended

Location was incorrect in listing for meeting and owner did not send any info until we questioned where boat was. Sat at meeting point in listing for 20+ minutes. Person getting us checked into boat had very little of knowledge on boat. Could not get depth finder to work or radio. I tried everything as well. Tach nor fuel gage worked. Seats were torn to pieces. Overall it did get us on water and we were able to still enjoy day. Just not up to par with other boats we rent.

Everything was great. Responsive owner, great communication, nice boat.

Fun trip! Boat worked well. It was a diff boat than is listed though that could hold 9 people instead of 10 .. were told in advance but hopefully they update the photo that’s why I took off stars. Well and it was very hard to find the spot it left from bcuz it wasn’t the spot on the listing but really close by. Other than that it was great.

Outstanding experience from start to finish. Richard was fast with his responses. The pontoon was easy to find. It worked very well. We had a great time cruising the inner-costal area, fishing, and stopping at the sand bar. Fun day. Thanks Richard.

Great service, nice boat . A+++

Easy to communicate with and nice fun boat.

Had an awesome time on the boat. Rented to celebrate mother's day and my sister's 40th bday. The boat was beautiful and well taken care of. Communication was great. Quick responses and very helpful by providing a cooler and Bluetooth speaker for me. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would definitely rent from Richard again

Great boat. Easy to operate. Maneuvers well.

Had a amazing time. Owners were so nice.

Awesome experience! Great communication. Boat was clean. Thank you!

A great experience and looking forward to another time in the future ! 😃

Great host! Had an awesome time!
Thank you!

Richard was excellent to work with! The boat was clean and easy to operate!

My family and I really enjoyed our day out on the water. The boat was spacious and accommodating. Aside from a few issues with the motor acting up, we had a great time. Richard was on point and quick to respond to my messages.

Great trip. Boat was in good working order. It does have a tear in the top and some patches on the seats but that didn’t change how much fun we had. Everything we needed was provided, life jackets for 5, anchors even a Bluetooth speaker.

Richard was great to show us how to operate and the pickup and drop off was smooth. Will absolutely book again.

The communication was excellent. Everything was as described. We had a great time. We recommend this renter to anyone and they will be my 1st option next time. Thank you Ramona😊

The boat worked, however, the boat was not the boat that was pictured. It was in much worse shape. None of the gauges, horn, or depth finder worked. The ladder was broken which we did not find out until we were at shell key. The anchor was too small. All the upholstery had mold and mildew, was ripped and had tape and patch panels. The boat was not cleaned. We took the boat as we had our day planned around it, but returned it 2 hours early. I would attach the boat pictures if I could.

Renting the boat made it possible for us to go to Shell Island where we found beautiful shells, hermit crab and dolphins. Beautiful day using the boat.

We had a nice time on the water, but the boat wasn’t in the best shape and the fuel gauge broken. The real issue was being sent out without a working ladder. That was quite a safety concern and created a lot of problems through the trip getting in and out of the boat especially with older people on board. The initial meeting to get in the water was touch and go as there wasn’t much communication around where to meet and with who when it wasn’t as directed in the reservation.

I love renting from Richard! Very precessional and he had amazing communication! Would highly recommend

Hi everyone, everything was great! Richard was very kind and the check in and check out process was friendly and quickly. the boat is amazing super stable and smooth in the water, my family had a great experience thank you a lot.

Had an awesome time out on the water. Everyone had an a great time. The boat was exactly as described and we got to our destination and back safe.

Rich was a great host! Would for sure rent again from him. We had a group of 9 and took the pontoon the John’s Pass Sandbar all day. It was a blast!

Fast response, everything right on time. Very nice people. Would definitely rent from again. We had a blast.

Richard was very nice and helpful! We had a great time on this boat Memorial Day with the family.

Great trip , clean boat, on time, and very friendly ! Will definitely be using again!

The boat had mildew on the seats, the gauges were not working and we had no idea how much gas was left. The top tarp was ripped. Mostly we were concerned with the gauges not working.

Boat was perfect!

The rental was beyond memorable. Great experience

Easy check out. Boat does not have both canapés as shown.

Richard was very kind and on time. Great experience!!

Had an absolutely great time!! Boat was at the dock waiting for us on time, even though we were a little late. Very friendly & open communication. Boat was as pictured & ran fantastic! Would rent from Richard again & highly recommend!!!

Richard was responsive and very informative. The boat was clean and we had no issues at all on our full day outing. We will definitely be booking with Richard again.

This group was so supportive and amazing. Considering we weren’t very experienced they were really
Patient and helpful.

Very responsive- nice boat

Great experience on Richard's boat today. Very quick responses to all communication in the build up and the boat(pontoon) itself was perfect. I'd definitely recommend. Everything was very easy from start to finish.

What a Great Day on the water. Everything went as quoted. Boat was perfect and the exchange was easy. Looking forward to next time. Thank you

Richard was great! He was quick to answer our questions. The pick up and drop off was seamless. The boat was in great condition.

Boat was as advertised. Overall great experience. Definitely recommend this rental.

Rented their boat for 6hrs on 6/18. It was a great experience. We met the nephew Sebastian at the boat dock on time who did a perfect job getting us ready for our departure. We returned a little early and Sebastian met us shortly after our arrival. We would rent from them again.

Richard was great and was super helpful through this rental , the boat was an awesome ride for the bachelor party!

This was a pure pleasure. They were fabulous to deal with and super accommadating. Boat was beautiful and clean and everything went perfect. We will definately use them in the futher

The Tedesco's

Had so much fun cruising!!!

We had such a great time! The boat was in perfect condition and being out on the water was beautiful... the boats host was very accomodating and helpful!!

Boat description was very accurate, Clean and well maintained. Easy to access. Did a excellent job going over everything with us before we took off. Will definitely rent from them in the future.

Seamless delivery of boat on time! Great overall experience navigating through the channels and into Shell Key.

Super clean, easy in, easy out. Awesome day

Richard was so patient and helpful. We had a wonderful day that ended up to be several hours longer than we planned, but he was totally fine with it and priced very reasonably. Would definitely rent again.

The boat had problems the whole time. It never went more than half speed, the dashboard was beeping at us the entire time as if there was an issue. The boat kept bogging out and then dying in the middle of the ocean, we had to pump the fuel prime on multiple occasions but even then the boat still wouldn’t start sometimes. the fuel gauge and trim gauge both didn’t work. The owner told us “this boat never has issues” and we were charged full price and given no compensation. No one contacted at all

Our time on the water was wonderful great host! If you can’t decide go with him exceptional service

Had a great time. Fit all of us and really liked the top so we didn't get sun burn!

Richard was super responsive and very easy to work with. Will certainly rent again.

Richard was great! Boat was great! He answered texts promptly and gave good instructions on how to operate the boat. Highly recommend.

Excellent communication, the boat was impeccably clean and ready for a day of fun. Very easy pick up and docking. My family and I had a great time. Highly recommend!

Boat pictured in listing is completely different than either boat they offered to us on the day of the booking. The boat we took was significantly older without a working radio and fuel gauge. The ladder on the back was damaged and had spots where someone’s foot could get cut open. When we complained to the owner he was confrontational and said we can just cancel on the spot if that made us feel better. We had guests that drove an hour plus to be there and just cancelling was not an option.

We found out 2 hours before our rental time the boat in the photo was out of service. We were provided a very old boat with tape all over the old vinyl and instrumentation that did not work, and we were not offered a discounted price.

Richard was ahead of schedule and had the pontoon boat waiting for us. The boat was clean and equipped as promised. We had a great time on the water and Richard was at the dock to meet us. We plan to rent again from Richard. Bob B.

Very nice. Had a great trip the two bimini top was great. Owner was prompt definitely will use again.

Boat worked great. Richard and his son were amicable. Probably would do a boater safety course in the future to be more comfortable, but overall a great day on the water.

Renter fabulous. Boat in poor repair. Overall very good

Great boat to enjoy with your friends and family
We had beautiful experience

Richard was very friendly and was on time for the rental. The boat was not as advertised, it is a 18’ Party Barge, not 20’ as shown in the photos and description. The stereo did not work at all. It’s great he includes fuel in the rental but this boat is just starting to show its age a bit. Steering is very tight and made it a little difficult to operate.

Very good communication and great boat

Richard was great, boat was great and we had an awesome day! We will rent from him again.

Everything was great: the owner explained and showed everything clearly, no delays. The boat was ready on time, and we had an excellent ride.

Super helpful team. My family and I had a great time. We will 100% be back.

Richard is very nice and very thorough going over the pontoon and it's operation. I would rent again.

There was some initial confusion when the boat pictured was not actually available. Ended up going out on a tri toon that did the trick though. Experience was easy start to finish. Boat was in fair shape but ran great. Pricing was very competitive with fuel included. Would absolutely rent from Richard again.

Punctual, great service

Richard was so nice and responded so quickly. The boat was wonderful and we had such any amazing day. Highly recommend

Great boat. Easy to meet and take out. Clean, worked well.
Awesome having the full sunshade for a sunny day. Not having to refuel means extra time enjoying the water.

Outstanding customer service. Richard and his wife made our 8 hour rental awesome. They made sure everything was OK even after we were underway for some hours in. Will be renting his equipment again for sure !!!

Richard was awesome - easy process, quick walk through at the dock and we were off on our adventure. Definitely will use again.

Richard was great! Would rent from him again. We had a great day on the water.

This was a great boat for a relaxing day and not going too far. We were pleasantly surprised by the extra shade. Richard was a great communicator and very easy to work with. We would rent again if the opportunity presented itself.

Richard was great and we had a great time! Well equipped boat (even had infant life vests!). Unfortunately the battery died after a stop but there was a booster on board that got us up and running again.

The entire process was super easy. Richard was great and the boat was absolutely perfect!

We had a wonderful time!! Richard’s boat perfect for our group and he was was a great host, he gave us a fantastic review of the boat, a perfect route recommendation. We all had an amazing time and we will rent with him again. Highly recommend Richard for you next outing!

Great rental, great price. Richard is an amazing renter. Thank you for everything!

Nice boat worked well all day would rent again

Richard was prompt to reply to my last minute request, was very attentive, and accommodating. His boat is the perfect size for a calm cruise along the intercostal and because of its small engine, it is fuel efficient. The boat was also clean and everything worked.

Richard is awesome. Perfect day.

The boat is awesome. Our whole family had a blast!!! Thank you Richard! We will be back for sure

Great boating experience! I’ll definitely rent again!!

Richard was great to deal with, explained everything fully and had the boat waiting for us to arrive. Boat did well and had zero issues out of it for the entire voyage. Will definitely have to reserve again when we make it back down this way.

Very nice boat!! Owner was Professional and courteous. Next time I need a pontoon I would only rent from him very best service, good boat reliable. If I could give more than five stars I would!!! Thank you for the great time!! Me and my family appreciate you!!

Nice beautiful boat very good service

Richard made it very convenient and easy to rent! We seen allot of dolphins the whole family had a blast!!

Great experience. Highly recommend!!! Safe and reliable.

Had an excellent time, boat was in good shape, fast and slow enough depending on needs . Comfortable as well. Owners are communicative and great! Live local, will rent again

Richard and his friend Dee were super nice the whole way through. We had an absolute blast, the pontoon was nice and we will definitely be booking in the future!

My family and I had a wonderful experience, and we thank Robert for that opportunity.

Smooth sailing…. Family had a great day on the water. We will definitely be back…. Simple, easy, and great communication with Richard…

Thx,
Jason

Good boat, really helpful hosts!

Greedy experience. Loved the cruising speed

Great communication. Excellent price. Easy pick up and drop off. Perfect location.

Boat is in moderate shape. Put worth the price.

Had a great experience with Richard! Was there early and extremely communicative and kind. Boat was great. Would rent again

worst experience! Do not use this company!! We got a broken boat from & spent 2 hours trying to get it to work. The owner had his wife & nephew helping and it was no help at all. They explained the boat was sensitive, yet couldn’t tell us how to fix the issue. They offered us another boat. That boat the motor got stuck and wouldn’t go back down. Spent hours waiting to be rescued from an island. our men got hurt helping the owner tow us! He agreed to a full refund then only refunded less then1/2

Boat was in great shape. Richard was prompt and had everything ready and made the process really easy. Definitely recommend him. We had a great day on the water.
