The captains were just great, entertaining and well informed. We have been coming to the Bahamas and learned so much! The boat was awesome and a great time. They were able to get my 84 year old mother on board with great care and she too had an amazing time. We are so glad we picked this tour and are spreading this experience at our time share! A must do in the Bahamas!!

The captain Marvin and his helper I think his name was Tim were both fantastic, knowledgeable and really went out of their way to make this delightful. Highly recommend.
