Captain Chuck took us out for my Dad's memorial service and he really was an incredible captain to work with start to finish. His communication was prompt and thorough, with a clear focus on our safety. He facilitated me getting a dedication swim in for my Dad. He drove with care, ensuring the most smooth ride possible, and relieving for my friends that hadn't been on a boat. He had great attention to detail, available cooler space, some snacks and beverages, taught us about the fish and birds and shared other fun facts about the area, and comfy bean bags. I highly recommend working with Captain Chuck!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jenna. It was truly an honor to be part of such a meaningful day for you and your crew . I’m glad we could provide a safe, comfortable experience and help make your dad’s memorial on the water special. Thank you again for trusting Bottom Dwellers Sportfishing.
Thank you so much for booking. Great night on the water with your family!
