Everything was GREAT
Island Hopping for foodies. on April 18, 20264 adults

Captain Rob was great he picked us up on time, went to Mago’s for lunch, drinks and hung by pool for a bit before heading to North Captiva Gulf Beach and then over to Pelicans Bay sand bar for some more sun and fun before heading back to dock. Captain Rob also gave me a few pointers on how to navigate the waters in the area

Cap. Rob is the greatest Captain in the world!
6 Hr – Cabbage Key Lunch & Sanbar on February 3, 20266 adults

Captain Rob’s company was the thing that made this trip the best. We would love to hang out with this guy all day. His boat, equipment and expertise were wonderful. My wife has a prosthetic leg and her sisters are all seniors and he helped them do things that they otherwise would never have done. Do NOT call anyone else. Paul Jones P.E.
