    Ray, was great! The boat was very easy to get out of the canal. Me and my family had an amazing time and look forward to renting from Ray again. The Sun Chill is a must have when renting the boat.

    Roy was thorough. It was our first time renting from boat setter and it was an amazing experience! We had a blast. The pontoon was in excellent condition and easy to navigate. Highly recommend for a fun day on the water! Roy gives you restaurant recommendations and fun places to go.

    5 stars because Captain Collin was very helpful at explaining how to navigate the area before we took off and we had a fun time on the water with no issues. Nevertheless, the boat is in poor conditions and does not look new or clean how it did in the pictures. Moldy carpet and duck tape on the seats. We still made the best out of it and had a great time.

    We chose this location to rent because a) it was reasonably priced, b) it allowed departure at any time of day, and c) because it was located on a creek and not directly on the bay. My first time driving a pontoon boat and I must say it's harder than a deck boat. But , I got the hang of it and doing so was an educational experience. Everything went well.

    Roy and his wife were very quick and helpful in all responses leading up to the trip and guiding us to nice places to visit during our day out. That included a great restaurant to stop by for lunch (Dry Dock).
    All in all great experience :-)

    This has been the worse experience I have ever had renting a boat. The pictures did NOT match the condition at all. The pictures posted on the ad were probably when he first purchased the boat. The boat we received had moldy wet carpet , tears and rips ALL over the seats , the center console was literally coming apart. I cut my hand on the steering wheel because there were bolts sticking out of where the knob was. We sent repeated messages to the owner who ignored us completely. NEVER AGAIN.

    Roy was responsive and the boat was in good shape. However, he did try to get me to leave and come back early so he could “get to church” but was showing his property when I arrived back an hour early. Then charged me $85 for two inflatable rafts and $20 in gas through Cash App. Should have acknowledged my arrival time.

    Seemed like a money grab for a guy telling me how many properties he managed and how many businesses he has.

    Roy was great! He had excellent tips and recommendations for our day on the boat. His boat however, is not in the condition depicted in the photos. To be honest, I was a little taken aback. But we were looking forward to a relaxing day on the water with the kids so we just let it go and enjoyed our day. I wish Roy had been forthcoming about the condition of the boat prior to our arrival. We would have been fine with it. But it is a little misleading.
