Frank made the progress a breeze. I appreciate his flexibility and how easy it was to coordinate and communicate with him. We've already booked another day on the water.

Had a great time on Franks boat! Super easy and everything you need for a fun lowkey day out with the group. Frank was awesome and super nice Really made it a stress free experience. Definitely will use Frank and his boat again.

Boat had everything you need and very comfy and clean. Our captain was really knowledgeable about the area and made sure we had what we needed so our kids could fish. Super guy! Weather was too choppy so avoid windy days as we got soaked!

Frank was an excellent host. Very accommodating and easy to work with. Just the kind of person you hope to get when renting a boat. Boat was clean, operated properly without issue. No problems. Highly recommend.

Frank was great! Very easy to coordinate with and very easy to find… he went above and beyond to bring us right to the boats location. I booked the boat for 2 hours around sun down. The sun set 30 minutes after our reservation and he had absolutely no problem waiting us out until then. Very reasonable, personable, easy going guy. Plus he refers to you as captan😎

Owner/Host was very accommodating with a change in plans due to weather. Pick up and drop off was very easy. Boat was in perfect working order and very easy to operate. We had seven people comfortably on the boat with lots of room to spare.

Frank was extremely professional and accommodating throughout our rental process. He met us at coquina beach to begin and end our day. The boat was immaculate. All electronics functioned perfectly, boat cushions were clean and showed no signs of major wear. Great guy, great boat= great experience! Thanks Frank.

Frank worked with us to coordinate a pickup location close to our VRBO. He took the time to walk us through all the boat’s features and mechanical operations before cutting us loose.
The boat was excellent as our fishing platform for a week of inshore and bay fishing. The multiple bait tanks made it easy to keep our baits and catch separate. There was plenty of space to stow our 12 fishing rods and the console storage allowed us to leave our tackle bags on the vessel overnight, saving us steps
