Best Couple activity! - It's a fun amd light water activity. Elizabeth and Taylor (yes, those were their names!) were amazing! They gave clear instructions and were very patient. The water was perfect, it wasn't too hot. The views were stunning! We really enjoyed it!

FUN TIME, GREAT STAFF!!! - My wife and I did the one hour Mini Powerboat Rental to tour the intercoastal and admire the beautiful mansions and luxury yachts along the way. Probably the closes you'll ever get to that kind of wealth and what it can buy? Had a good time! Watch out for smart asses who intentionally drive by trying to soak you with their wake. Ron

Here for a good time, not a long time. - The girls working the front desk were funny yet precise. Gave us all the info we needed quickly and didn't drag on with a lecture. Common sense applies here and the ladies can read if you have it or not pretty quickly. The boats were great. Enough power to have fun but not anything crazy to get yourself in trouble or an accident. Would recommend to anyone looking to kill time after a cruise waiting on their flight!

A highlight - Fort Lauderdale will never rank very high on my “favorite cities” list. But, if friends tell me that they’re going, I’ll absolutely tell ‘em that grabbing the mini power boat for an hour or two is the thing they’re sure to genuinely enjoy and remember.
