Posted on Karla BrownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Booked a a ride for a bachelorette trip. We had the best time; our captain Cole was amazing. He kept the energy up and accommodated everything we needed including coolers for drinks and food, music, group pictures with fun accessories and floats for lounging in the water! Would totally recommend for group events!Posted on WilburTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience. Fun water experience at Crab Island and scenic ride with dolphins to our destination. Crew was super!Posted on Rebecca WardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely had the greatest day of our lives on Taylor and Cole's boat for Claire’s bachelorette party! From start to finish, they were incredibly chill and attentive, making sure our hands were never empty and that the Rumplemintz kept flowing. Their focus on safety was top-notch, giving us peace of mind while we enjoyed the day. They even went above and beyond to retrieve a lost hat for the bride, which was such a thoughtful touch! I can't recommend them enough. I would pay five times the amount to have this experience again with these amazing guys.
