“Amazing experience! The crew was professional and super friendly. The yacht was clean and comfortable. The captain also was super good at answering questions about the boat, surrounding areas or anything having to do with a charter. Working with Justin was fantastic and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this charter. Cannot wait to book again!.”
