They had an amazing time, and did not once complain about getting up and out the door by 5:15 AM during summer vacation! I can vouch for the size of the fish, as tons came back home for grilling. I'm so happy they filleted it for them. Not something in my skill set... The boys all told great stories about their half day adventure. They clearly loved it and were very comfortable aboard the boat. They said they had help when they needed it but learned a lot too about fishing for "big fish" versus the small ones off our cove on the Cape. Scott's responsiveness surpassed my expectations and the booking process was a dream! I highly recommend this option if you wish to fish in Boston Habah...well technically, you go a bit beyond this famous waterway to get to the fishing spots...

We went lobster fishing. The boat is so steady, it wasn't rocking around too much. Rick gave us each a job to do. One was to record how many lobsters in the trap, which were keepers and which we had to throw back because it was either female (breeder) or too small. I had the job of measuring the lobster for size. Rick taught us that if it's a breeder, you clip the tail to indicate that it's a breeder. My sister in law was recording the number caught in each trap. My brother in law helped with steering the boat (he has a boat too.) My husband helped with gathering the lobster trap with a pole. I didn't know pig skin is used as bait. Although I was nervous, Rick kept me busy with putting bands on the lobster claws. I became an expert at it. At the end of the day, Rick put our catch on the grill. Let me tell you, grilled lobsters are the best! Especially when it's fresh out of the ocean. There was also a small crab in the catch too. I had forgotten about being nervous in the boat. Definitely book a trip with Rick, he makes boating fun! Even for people with anxiety being in the water. I want to go boating again with Rick this summer! I'm not anxious with Rick. He's great! Maybe this time I'll learn to fish!

We learned so much about whales, their behavior, and the marine environment, which made every sighting feel even more meaningful. We were especially fortunate because the whales were unusually active that day, and we even witnessed some rare sightings.

Beyond the excitement, the tour gave us such a beautiful and romantic day together. Being out on the water, learning, laughing, and witnessing something so remarkable side by side felt truly magical. We'll cherish these memories forever.

With regards to the owner "Don" I guess I caught him on a couple of good days or I bring out the best in him. I found him to be fun and carefree (in a good way). ************************************************** I had a great time renting with these guys. It's not some sort of posh rental situation. I get the impression he simply sizes up your abilities to pilot the boat via phone and in person based on whatever the hell his method is. He then gives you the keys to the boat. There's a lot of freedom, you're not followed around or given some sort of two square-mile area to boat. If you want to take the damn thing to Portugal he could probably care less as long as you pay him. It's a boat, you assume a risk. if you have no clue what you're doing or need a completely brand new boat this is not the place to rent from. If you want to get out on the water in a reasonably well maintained boat then this is the place for you. If you are 'high maintenance' you need to look elsewhere. It's not cheap but then again look at where he is and look at his overhead, with all that taken into consideration it's a pretty reasonable deal. Customer request: Please get more boats, please update the boats just a tiny bit. Just a little bit of a sprucing up and maybe procure one more center console 19 foot +/- would be great. K.S.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! There are so many reasons why Don and his business are terrible, that I think…read moreit's easier to bullet them out for you! - Booked and fully paid for a six-hour trip 1.5 months in advanced. - Don then ignored all messages, texts, and emails up until 2 DAYS BEFFORE THE TRIP, at which time HE WAS TRYING TO CANCEL THE TRIP! - We had 12 folks total, with some flying into Boston for this day! - After saying cancelling is not an option for our group, Don refused to give us our original trip of 1 pm - 7 pm. He would only give us 10 am - 2 pm because he had other parties booked for our time that he'd rather not upset. - When we booked, it stated food, beer, and liquor beverages included in our package, then Don tried to say this was not included once I got him on the phone. We had to fight back on this too. Just an awful experience. We finally decide to do the four-hour trip between 10 am - 2 pm vs our original six-hour trip between 1 pm - 7 pm because it was that or nothing, and the group had been looking forward to this day for months! Then Don shows up late on the day of the trip. And then he docks early and tells us to get off the boat before it's even 2pm. Also, the food was maybe enough for 6 people, not 12. And there were NO liquors as we were told there would be after our fighting about all the other wrong things happening -- just a cooler of beers. Perhaps he was saving the food and liquor for the parties he preferred to take on the water (his words, not mine). Apparently one party was a repeat customer and the other party was a bachelorette party so, forget about us booking 1.5 months in advance - we were just super unimportant. Don knows he messed up and admitted to such. He said the only way he would take us on the water (even though HE TRIED TO CANCEL and gave us a hard time) was if I promised not to give him a bad review. I did promise to not give a bad review IF for the two days leading up to our trip if he actually did what he said he was going to do. Well, he did not, so here is my review. And on top of all the things I've already listed about him being late for our modified trip, not giving us the appropriate food and beverages, not communicating, etc. he was also just a straight jerk to us, his dog, and his staff. DON'T BOOK THIS GUY!!!!
