He was friendly, professional, and took the time to walk us through everything, which made us feel completely comfortable heading out on the water. I never had an experience renting a boat like I did with BROSF. They are by far my go to boat rental company anytime I need something in this area. Josh was responsive, helpful with local tips, and clearly cares about making sure his customers have a great experience. If you're looking to rent a boat in the North Palm Beach area, it would truly be a pleasure to work with him. I highly recommend Josh and Boat Rentals of South Florida to anyone looking for a smooth and enjoyable day on the water.

I am not new to boats, engines, surveys, or the buying process. I have rarely encountered anyone with John's combination of technical sophistication, experience, judgment, and straightforward common sense. What is extraordinarily rare is discussing the hull survey, overall systems, diesels or outboards, its not just what he knows, but how he thinks. He is logical, patient, candid, and able to take complicated technical issues and turn them into clear, actionable decisions. There is no drama, no salesmanship, and no tendency to overstate problems or minimize them. He simply works through the facts and helps you understand what matters. A small example is taking borderline moisture meter readings on a hull and turning them into the need for thermal imaging so you don't run into a problem that was hidden later. Looking at sophisticated outboards and realizing you can't re-sleeve this particular model but have to bore scope the cylinders for the plasma coating. These things are beyond the usual surveyor and beyond the usual engine, but a chip shot for John. If you are looking for a surveyor, a master diagnostician for engines, help evaluating a difficult hull issue, or simply an experienced second opinion before buying a boat, John is a rare and valuable resource. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

This review is based of numerous things. Number one, John Banister is a CROOK. You don't believe…read moreme? Send me a message for the full break down. There are plenty of other surveyors across the pan handle, do not hire this man. John Banister did an initial quote for a walk through a survey after we completed our boat, the quote was $4,500. He did the pre purchase walk through for $1,500. HE DID NOT NOTICE THAT ONE ENGINE WAS TOAST. $200k later and we have two new engines. We paid John Banister for thermal imaging of our vessel for $2,600. That was without a shadow of a doubt the most worthless report we have ever paid for. 9/1/24 we completed our vessel, about 8 month after we contracted Mr Banister. John told us the price was now $3,800 instead of $3,000 to come back. We have all of this clearly stating in writing, John is trying to fabricate some story that it was initially for a pre purchase survey. Hey listen you assmat buffoon, nothing changed here except your price because you felt it was too low. I don't care if we have to pay $10k, you are a liar and a cheater and you don't deserve to touch anybody's boats. This man is a thief! I will be reporting him to the state license board with all of our written communication hoping to have his license revoked. We will be suing him for his negligence with our initial reporting and hopefully drown him in debt. This man is a complete asshole and POS!!

Here's my short (and long) of my recent experience with Finatix Scuba Diving and Tammy Goodbar…read more The short version; Tammy and Finatix are my "go-to" for dive instructions and dive guides in the West Palm Beach area. Professional, accommodating, attentive and very, very safe. She just did a refresher for me after 4 years without diving. She was gentle but firm in confirming my skills in gear prep, dive planning, buddy procedures, hand signals and both beach and boat procedures. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for scuba dive training or dive guides. The Long Version; I first met Tammy when I was doing a underwater macro photography workshop at the Blue Heron bridge in Riviera Beach, Florida back in August 2016. At the time I had been a certified diver for almost 30 years. Tammy was one of the guides and I was lucky enough to be in her group. I was impressed with her professionalism and her eye I spotting the little critters we were there to photograph. Over the three days of the workshop I got to see that my first impression was not a fluke. Day after day Tammy was a pro wrangling the photographers and uncanny in spotting subject for us to shoot. I left that workshop impressed and with her number. By the time the Covid 19 pandemic hit I had some non-Covid medical challenges that required a couple major surgeries. The results of which made my ability to continue scuba diving a question. I live in California and although we have some great diving the water temperature is never really warm. When considering how best to determine my ability to dive I remembered diving with Tammy in the (nice warm) waters of Florida. At the beginning of 2023 I called her to see if I might retain her to review my abilities and skills one-on-one. She was immediately on board and we determined that June would be a good month for both of us and the waters would be warm. I booked her on the spot. I got down to West Palm Beach this last Saturday (6/17/2023) and came by Finatix to select rental equipment, sign the ever present paperwork and review our plan for the next couple days. We set a time to meet for the beach dive at Blue Heron bridge the next day. We met there and went through setting up the gear. As balance issues are one of my residual challenges Tammy insisted on carrying my gear to the beach. We reviewed our dive plan and got in the water. On descending we reviewed some skills and started the dive. Tammy led and kept an eye on my checking that I was "OK" regularly. Inn our 50-minute dive we managed to spot; Southern Ray, Eagle Ray, Yellow Ray, lobster, crabs mating, A Sharp-Tailed Ray feeding and a playful Octopus. We ended the day with an agreed time to meet for a 2-tank boat dive the next day. Tammy took the gear and brought it to the boat dock as well as getting it on-board. Before we boarded we reviewed boat procedures again. We went out for our first dive and she was careful to make sure that I could safely manage the difficult task of getting into the water off a rolling boat with heavy dive gear on my back. We continued practicing dive skills and cruised the reef seeing more great stuff including several sea turtles and eels. As this was drift style diving, we came up after doing the required 15' safety stop for 3 minutes in mid-water. A good test of buoyancy control. The boat picked us up and she monitored my ability to remove my fins, hand them up and climb the later with my gear on. After a surface interval we did a second dive then headed in. Tammy took care of the gear, signed my logbook and insisted that I had accomplished all the skills review that would confirm that I could still dive. I know the next time I'm down in the West Palm / Riviera Beach area Tammy and Finatix are going to be my first call.

She was patient with me and explained everything clearly for every step of the way.
