What I love the most is hearing about the renter's day. Hearing the great times that were had and knowing THOSE memories are what I was helping create.

4. What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?

There was a family with a young girl, perhaps 12 years old. I don't know what her background was, but she seemed to be more of a 6 year old mentality. She was so excited to see the water but terrified to get on the Jet Ski. They finally got the girl on it and when we went back for the pick up, the girl was jumping around and begging to go again. The parents couldn't stop thanking us. My most heartwarming was a elderly gentleman was quickly going down hill and loved fishing. His daughter and wife patiently took him out, they had never operated a boat only him and his mind wasn't quite there enough to captain it. When they came in that evening, the smile on his face told the whole story. That was his last boating trip and I am honored to have been able for it to be with our boats.
