    Captain Ed and Kim made our scalloping trip such an amazing experience! They were both so friendly, energetic, and great to spend the day with. The boat was clean, comfortable, and perfect for the trip. They knew exactly where to take us, and we quickly reached our limit with scallops! We had a fantastic time from start to finish and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a great scalloping adventure. We’ll definitely be back! 🐚🌊
