We had the best time with Capt Trent! We got to see and do so much and he is so knowledgeable about the different areas. We saw dolphins, hunted for sand dollars, snorkeled around Shell Island and took in the views along the way. This trip was perfect for our kids (two 8 yr old boys and a 2 yr old). We will definitely book again with Trent. You will not regret spending some time on his boat!
Had a great time snorkeling with you guys!!
I dont even know where to begin. This was the best experience! Trent was very chill, prepared, fun, knowledgeable, flexible, the list goes on. He will make sure you have a good time. His boat is clean, there is snorkel equipment, cooler and stocked with ice. We will book again next time we are in Florida!
Thanks for the great review! Looking foward to your next trip!
My family and I had the absolute BEST time with Trent. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the area. We saw dolphins and chilled at Shell Island. I'll definitely book with him or his son again when I'm back in Panama City.
Anytime Tamelia!! You and your family were fun to have out there!! Welcome back anytime!!
Trent was a great host! Boat was great, very well kept, he was great with our kids, and we LOVED our day on his boat!
Glad everyone had a good time!!
Captain Trenton was professional, helpful, friendly and fun. His pontoon boat was beautiful and brand new! Trent was determined to find us dolphins and he did just that! So fun! Highly recommend. We had a great time and would definitely book with him again when in PCB!
Absolutely. I look forward to your next trip. Thanks again for booking with me!!

I've been around boats my whole life and love sharing that passion with others. Over the years, I've owned plenty of boats and rented them out, which inspired me to get my captain's license. Many people want to enjoy the water without worrying about navigating, anchoring, or handling busy waterways—so I take care of it all. My guests just need to relax, have fun, and enjoy their day on the water—that's my job! I want to give a quick explanation because theres alot that do not know. Pontoons have 2 toons under them. A tritoon has 3. The toons are the aluminum cylinders under the deck. Tritoons are way more stable and do not rock and sway as bad. It also floats better along with added hp engines on tritoons to get to the destination faster. I captain a tritoon!! I believe it is more suited for going into the gulf to find dolphins and shelling in my opinion. It's my job to keep everyone safe so we can have a great time without a sketchy boat ride. Noone wants to be scared all day because waters coming over the front of a pontoon boat. Thanks for listening.
