A perfect night with friends. Matt was welcoming, kind and easy breezy. Fun swim at sunset and it was all pretty magical for this land locked gal visiting Rowayton.

Captain Matt is amazing. This was our second trip with him. He is a wealth of knowledge about the area and super laid back. Would go out with him again anytime!!

My spouse and I chartered the Drift to experience the Norwalk fireworks and boy oh boy are we happy we did. We had a fantastic time. Captain Taylor was a great host and made you feel safe with him at the helm. The Drift is truly a wonderful boat!! Highly recommended.

Even with a storm Matt and Taylor did an amazing job providing great service and safely got us home. Kids and adults had a blast for fireworks! Will be back for other charters!

Outstanding evening. First a sunset cruise of Rowayton followed by front row view of the Norwalk fireworks from the boat.

A lovely experience from beginning to end. Captain Matt was friendly and kind. Also I might add most knowledgeable about the area. My brother and I grew up in Norwalk and his details were most enjoyable.
