Carlee was the best captain of our tiki boat! She and Joe (the owner of the marina) were amazing and accommodated our large bachelorette party. We had so much fun and saw lots of manatees!

Deacon was friendly, knowledgeable, and a good captain. We all enjoyed the sunset. One suggestion would be for him to keep it professional at all times. I know he wanted to create a casual, chill atmosphere but dropping a dozen plus f bombs was inappropriate and my family was also bothered by this.
