My husband surprised me with a sunset ride and it was awesome! Tommy, Chris, Cisco, and Phil made the trip very pleasant. The appetizers served after the ride were ok.

We took a Sunset ride with Don, Chris, Phil and Mike. Don was our captain and he did an awesome job. All of the guys were so accommodating. I highly recommend a trip with this group.
