Called last minute as we didn't know our schedule with all the craziness going on. Capt was open and lite hearted, which made the whole trip that much more fun. Great boat, really clean and plainly of room. We caught grouper, snapper and Mahi Mahi all in 6 hours. We only scheduled a 4hr, but was having so much fun, the captain let us extend it. Will 100% do this again, and can not recommend this trip enough.
