Our captain and first mate were great! We had two infants on board, and 7 children that they accommodated to perfectly. They got us to and from crab island quickly and made sure we had the best time. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

Amazing time!

Captain Luke and partner were great, helped with anything and had fun experience. Will be back

Boat experience

A chartered boat is the only way to visit Crab Island! Our Captian and First Mate were exceptional, they were attentive,  personable, and outgoing. The Hot Tin was a wonderful boat,  having a shaded cover whenever you want it, was a huge bonus.  We look forward to next year.

Kayla and Nick are the best!!!

We had a great day with Luke and Kayla at Crab Island!

Great Day T Cran Island!

Awesome experience ! Family had a great time !
Definitely will do again !!!
Thank you !

"Kickin It With The Family"

I highly recommend having the captain and deckhand they both were great host and made the experience very enjoyable.

Crab Island excursion

Boat was clean and captain and mate were friendly

We chartered a pontoon for a party of 14. Our captain, Anthony, and deck hand., Carolyn, were amazing. They were super friendly and made sure we all had a fun experience. We will definitely book another Crab Island trip with them.

Great family experience!

There was a total of 8 of us on July 4th. For how busy it was we were all so thankful for having Anthony and his deckhand Victoria. They were so fun and so easy going. Had a very good knowledge of the area and knew just the perfect spot to go. We would definitely do this again and look forward to coming down to visit again soon. Thank you Anthony and Victoria for wonder time out on the water.

Sooo much Fun!! Highly recommend!

I would come back and rent again. Everyone was nice, helpful and thorough, keeping me informed. Couple of things I would consider changing…Put the boat operation and safety video on your website, make it easy and available, unable to view it. Once the waiver and the link expires, you can’t go back in make changes or corrections. A staff member sent me the link after request, this saves us both time and money and could be avoided. The video is very helpful and should be readily available and viewed as many times as needed for a first time boat operator or especially an inexperienced boater. Also, I suggest putting the rental insurance options early on and BOLD print, not buried in the fine long winded print. Makes you feel blind sided when you get to the window to pay… people don’t like $$ surprises ($75-$500) A final thought is some of the wording about if staff has to come get the boat “for any reason” is not at all warm and fuzzy felling to the customer. Sometimes boats just break down and have issues out of the control of the customer. Hopefully this is not the case. If so, you should revisit this policy. 

Thanks!

Professional

I have used them several times and  have excellent customer service. Super helpful and always friendly. Would recommend a million times.

Mrs.

I booked a pontoon boat rental through TripShock, which apparently acts as an agency for individual rental operators.
When the rental I had chosen fell through, TripShock proactively found an alternate operator and made all the arrangements to switch my booking.
A woman from TripShock called me to let me know what was going on and answered all my questions, and TripShock followed up with e-mails and text messages. They even told me the best place to park near the marina.
Oh, and the rental from the replacement operator turned out to be less expensive than my original booking, so I got a partial refund, too.
Before I started, I was a little wary of booking through an agency instead of contacting individual rental operators directly. But I am so glad I went to TripShock.com. Their web site is a great place to find a lot of offers, and I can't say enough good things about their customer service.

Good boat, great customer service

The crew was really nice! Boat was perfect.

The crew at Pink Pontoon was incredibly friendly and the boat was great!  They helped us load our stuff for the day, have a short overview of the boat operation, and even lent us a nice Bluetooth speaker which we had forgotten!  100% would recommend using them!

Excellent Pontoon Rental!

Very nice people and everything went well.  We had a great time and great experience.  We would only suggest having ramps to get on and off the boat.

Loved renting here!

Taylor was an excellent captain and very knowledgeable. We had a great time.

Great Time

We had captain Taylor, though also got to meet captain Chandler too!  Captain Taylor tailored (no pun intended) our trip to exactly what we wanted.  Want to see dolphins… we saw dolphins.  Want snorkel… we snorkeled. Want to paddle board…we went paddle boarding.  He matched the sarcasm to a T with my teenagers and had us just wanting to adopt him as one of ours.   Incredibly courteous, incredibly kind, and impeccably knowledgeable. Truly felt like he was one of our family members.  Will do this again!  Captain Taylor, we’ll try to get you that invitation to my son’s wedding.  

Absolutely Amazing

We loved our trip & Captain Chandler is a cool 

Excellent Captain

From beginning to end, it was PERFECT! Booking with Captain Ron was a breeze. He is extremely thorough and the process was explained very well. Captain Ron did a great job choosing our Captain.
