    Most renters rave about Jim and his crew, praising their friendly service and helpful local recommendations for spots like Coatue Beach and the harbor's best sights. The boats themselves get consistent praise for being easy to handle, making them ideal for first-time boaters who appreciate the reassuring guidance from staff like Gianna and James. Regular customers keep coming back season after season, which speaks volumes about the overall experience. The convenient location and simple online booking process make getting out on the water refreshingly straightforward. There are a few isolated complaints worth noting. A couple of reviews from 2022-2023 mention issues with boat condition and reservation mix-ups, though these appear to be outliers given the strong track record from repeat customers. The recent feedback under new management suggests improvements have been made with newer boats and better service. For those wanting to explore Nantucket's coastline independently, this remains a popular choice where you can grab lunch, cruise past the lighthouse, and find your own quiet beach spot for the day.

    The trip was nice however. The two employees Gabe and Sam were very respectful but they had no what they were talking about for example Sam tried to to tell me the extra seat was in the fuel tank and this Gabe guy keep insisting we go to “sharking” not sure what that means but overall nice kids. Make sure to not go when you see these guys lol.
