Captain Morgan was Amazing!

Captain Morgan was amazing and allowed us to totally customize our charter to do all the things that we wanted to do! On top of that, he was just an awesome human being with a ton of knowledge to share.

Amazing staff

The staff that Getmyboat has is truly amazing. I ran into an issue that I caused & when I called for help I always got an answer & whoever I spoke with was extremely kind. I was truly dreading trying to reach out for assistance regarding the matter but when I did I was left in awe of my experience. I wish I had names to thank people specifically but the team here is so amazing.
