We had the best experience

The boat was perfect, clean, and in the best condition. We went to the sandbar and spend a wonderfull Day. These was the second year that we rent with Klaus and always a memorable experience.

Awesome day on the water.

Klaus met us at the ramp right on time, gave us instruction and recommendations and we were on our way. We went up and down the coast, ran into a couple schools of dolphins, and swam on sandbars. We then stopped up in Anna Maria island for a late lunch and headed back down to the ramp. Klaus was there to greet us right on time. There were no unexpected charges and Klaus was great to work with. We will definitely do this again next time we’re down here.

Best boat rental

Klaus is the nicest person. We’ve rented twice, two different boats and each time was 10/10 experience. The boats are top notch and perfect for a family day on the water. Communication from Klaus is amazing which makes everything go so smooth. Our family will always rent from Off The Hook Boating.

We had a great experience

The boat was in perfect conditions and it was a very straightforward process to both check in and check out - we got caught in the rain and we were able to meet a little earlier to check out which made our day so much easier - we will definitely use Off the Hook again for our next adventure

Our experience was fantastic.

The boat was in excellent condition waiting for us when we arrived to the dock and the accommodations were perfect for a great day out on the water. Klaus gave us all the ins and outs of the boat some recommendations of places to go and some hints for places to find to fish. He was flexible and let us extend our reservation from the water because we were having such a great time. When we got back he was there ready to greet us. We will defin
