Perfect captain and boat
2 Hour – Sunset Experience on June 14, 20262 adults
We were doing a sunset journey away from land to show respects to our loved ones who passed. Captain James was respectful, flexible, and recommended a location that worked perfectly for us. He is a great pilot and navigator.
