Good experience - Learning the proper maneuvering of a boat. Having a more detailed map with the buoy numbers indicated would be helpful

Great experience! - Great experience! I have never driven a powerboat so this was a fun activity. It was simple and safe. There are only 3 gears: throttle, idle, and reverse. They remind you that gear shifts need to be gentle not abrupt. I came prepared with the temporary boating license. They give you instructions on where to go and a map. There are certain channels that you can't go into. Cell phone navigation also works when on the water and they said that all boats have a GPS tracker on them. They said you can call them if you get lost on the water but that did not happen to me. You have to call them to dock the boat once you are done. Overall an amazing experience, highly recommend! BTW, I paid a few bucks for street parking but there were plenty of spaces.
