    Medicinal Purposes is an amazing boat filled with lots of amenities! It had everything in it that you could find in your own home. My friends and I spent 8 hours on the boat and whenever we were feeling too warm the boat had a super strong AC system! Lots of floats, paddle boards, speakers, chairs, coolers, fridge , & more! 10/10 !

    I recently celebrated my 40th birthday with my family on a beautiful Pontoon boat, captained by Jim. From the moment we stepped on board, Jim made sure we were safe and comfortable, especially since the weather had been unpredictable in the days leading up to our outing. His professionalism and excellent customer service instantly put me at ease and helped alleviate any anxiety I had about the conditions.

    Not only was Jim a skilled captain, but he was also the coolest captain ever. His great pe

    Jim the owner was great! The boat was clean and fun but needs some slip resistant work on the flooring. Jim was kind and accommodated for that and life vests for our younger kids. We had a blast and will definitely rent again from him.

    Our family of 6 had an incredible experience today with Captain James on his beautiful Pontoon.
    He graciously welcomed us aboard, got us comfortable and did everything possible to give us the best time ever. He was endlessly patient with the kids.
    Captain James and his boat was a true gift to our family’s summer adventures.
