GUEST REVIEWS

We needed someone to deliver and receive our boat from getting serviced, and Captain Todd did an excellent job! We were also having an electrical issue with our lift, with not being able to raise it without using the manual override. Well, Captain Todd's knowledge extends beyond boats, and he figured out the problem and fixed it! Boats are a significant expense, and you want someone competent and trustworthy to take care of it when you are not able to. I can say without hesitation that Captain Todd fits that description to a T. My husband and I would highly recommend Captain Todd for anyone needing a reliable and skilled captain.

Marsha J., Cape Coral

Todd is an exceptional captain. I’ve had the pleasure of being aboard boats under his command on numerous occasions, and his professionalism and expertise have always impressed me. His friendly, down-to-earth personality and extensive knowledge of boating create a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere that immediately puts passengers at ease. Todd inspires confidence, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, personable, and trustworthy captain.
