We all know the boats thoroughly, we see them all every day. Not only does this make us extremely on the ball when it comes to maintenance, but it also means our bookings team is able to answer any questions, no matter how specific or unique. This also helps us to match you up with the right boat.

We have been out on the water on all of them, we know their layouts from memory and we also know all the little quirks.

We used South River boat rentals this past weekend for a bachelorette party and had the absolute best time. Special thanks to Captain Chris and the rest of the crew who were all kind, courteous, and informative. Definitely will be returning! - Gabby Cooper

Amazing day on the pontoon boat with our extended family. Graham was a WONDERFUL captain and host. He took us to a quiet area to swim, dragged all 4 kids in the tube, and slowed the boat so we could look at wildlife up close. Worth every penny! Highly recommend requesting Graham as your captain. - Meredith Bove
