This place is nothing but a bait and switch! I purchased a Monterey M6 which by the way has been…read moreturning out to be nothing but garbage! Do not buy a Monterey product. They will not warranty anything and utilize more fine print than you can imagine. I was sold this boat with a 7 year bow to stern warranty which I was told covered everything for 7 years. Being new to boating I trusted the Brodies (Owners of Yankee Boating) First they ordered me the wrong boat! Interior wrong, helm wrong, all electronics wrong. Mind you it was delivered begging of boating season so obviously not being happy I didn't want the wrong boat, the deal was I would sign papers on this boat start making payments and use it and they would order the new one for the next year! Next year comes new boat is late and in the body shop for a problem with the decals. Get the boat first couple years are ok little issues become bigger issues but I don't want to be without boat till end of the season so I compile all issues after 4yrs and in October 2024 contact Josh In The service dept and says send me pics I will contact Monterey and we will take care of issues. So after 5 months of no communication I called and he said we haven't heard back I'll call you Monday (3days later) and of course nothing. So 2 weeks later I go in and Charlie who was not very nice either I think because I bothered him on lunch said Josh was on lunch looked it up and said I don't see anything he will call you today I promise.lol Yeah a week and a half later Josh calls me and says all warranty has been declined there is nothing we can do!! Not happy I say have Andrew Brodie call me (the owner). In the mean time I call Monterey and the guy says none of these thing are covered and the 7 year total warranty was nothing what I was sold when I bought the boat! Here are issues. Sea Deck is pulling up everywhere, all of the hinges on everything that opens on the boat are litterally falling apart. Gel coat is cracking everywhere! And the 5k touchscreen helm option is delaminating and coming apart. It clearly says on the bs 7 yr warranty and issues w engine instrumentation is covered. He said well I was the one who declined warranty and Yankee never even sent pictures of the screen! I said well I have them I will send them to you and he would not take them from me said they had to come from dealer. He then asked if it worked I said yes but falling apart and I have to keep it covered so it doesn't get wet and he said well it works so not warranting it. So obviously frustrated I hang up and wait for Andrew Brodie to call me because to this point thought we had a great relationship in me buying a over $100k bought and paying it right off, he will surely take care of this situation. Get the call from him days later and he says well warranty is black and white nothing that we could do!?!? What???? You and your brother told me this 7 yr warranty covered everything!!! He says no not everything then the slime ball salesmen the REAL Andrew Brodie comes out and starts reading all the fine print and picks the warranty claim apart and I say this has been going on for years and when I called service to complain was told compile the problems we will take care of it over winter here we are because all of the fine print warranty has passed. So bottom line in my dealings with Yankee Boating,Monterey, and Andrew Brodie watch out he is that slimy used car salesmen that your parents warned you about when you were a kid selling you a Monterey product that truly is garbage and both him and the manufacturer know it and run the fine print game better than anyone in the business!

This was a great experience with my friends!…read more Our group came here for a friend's birthday celebration. We all packed our own drinks and completely forgot the most important part; the cups and ice. But no worries! Our guide had the boat fully equipped with ice cubes and cups and we were all able to enjoy a nice, fun and relaxing ride in the lake. We got full control of the bluetooth speakers and had a nice time meeting the other patrons and sharing music with each other. Overall, this was very comfortable and enjoyable for all of us. Additional notes: The bathroom was also very clean. The young man driving the boat gave us a nice, smooth ride despite slight choppiness in the water. There is ample shade on most of the boat with a nice sit-down area to enjoy the sun as well. Thank you!

Tim was very sweet with our kids, keeping them safe, but also entertained. We wanted a short tour around the highlights of the lake, and we wanted to spend a little time swimming and tubing- we did all of this and truly enjoyed our time. Tim is an excellent captain and Bolton Boat tours is a world class company ! Definitely recommend!!! We noticed Tim taking out a bachelorette party after our trip- so it is the perfect choice, no matter the occasion !

We did the 1 hour cruise on the Horicon last week while on our vacation in Lake George. It's a…read moregreat way to take in all the scenic views of the lake, and get a little history lesson to boot. We also enjoyed a few cocktails from the bar. The cruise is dog friendly too, that was important for us, because our mini-poodle wanted to go. Reading many negative reviews concerning the crew, but we thought they were friendly & very professional. The Captain is proud native of the area. We'd recommend this shoreline cruise to any First Timers to Lake George. But basically, it's the kind of activity you do once, One & Done.

What a disappointing experience to start off 2024!…read more Overpriced and underdelivered! Terrible value for the cost. The food was poor and ran out early on. The first deck was overcrowded making exit in case of an emergency nearly impossible and producing a disaster. The first deck was very cold despite being advertised as heated. Only the crowd did anything to warm up the room. The price of $50 per person was overly expensive and we were unaware, until boarding, that it included food and entertainment at the restaurant on land. We were not interested and would have preferred a two-tier price structure. Also, the window flaps were filthy and we could barfely see outside. I will not book with you again.

We went out on the Adirondack and the boat was large enough for all the patrons on board but by far it seemed that the best seats on board were on the upper level. The lower levels were challenging to see the fireworks because most of the windows didn't open and the best option for seeing was to go outside to the staircase. Even there the roof overhead made for difficult viewing. There are other options in the area for viewing fireworks by boat and we would most likely try a different boat- either with this company or another in the same area. All of the staff were friendly and made getting on and off rather easy.

A Great Family Bucket List Event!…read moreWouldn't have thought of doing this, but any visit to southern end of Lake George makes the parasails hard to miss. Figured, why not; glad we did) SCHEDULING: 4 We visited Lake George on Tuesday & decided to parasail on Wednesday. Drove back (an hour) to see nobody PS'ing on the lake. "Closed". Cued to go online to book, which in turn 'call to schedule'. Done. CUSTOMER SERVICE: 5 Kiosks process was smooth with obligatory liability waiver, suiting up with life jacket and harness. Crew was friendly while efficient getting us situated on boat - with a final point that there is a very small possibility "you'll get wet"....so plan accordingly. Adding, "We have waterproof phone sleeves with lanyards should you wish to take those up with you for pics." (Note: competitor company advises that use of one's personal electronics is a safety hazard and banned from use on their boats - they offered a $30 photo service shot from the boat) The RIDE: Customers wait their turn to go up, turns out party of three will always to slotted to go up together to save time (max weight 500lbs). Solo flights could only happen if one is over 200 lbs. Tandems are fun with parent and kid combos. You're harnessed onto the parasail and are supporting rope is winched out hundreds of feet, pulled by along by boat. Higher than I expected. Duration is approximately 10 minutes which I didn't time - but seemed plenty enough. Crew offered a water touchdown which amounts to be let down into the lake for a momentary wetting.....and lifted back up before final boat landing. (We asked for feet only which was plenty wet for our purposes) NEXT TIME: My kids & I would definitely use Joe's service again on our next trip up to Lake George- Best value of the two vendor (personal photo op from height). What would I do different? Take wide angle selfie video of flight & ask for a deeper water touchdown mid flight. *BONUS: - Now for a 10 year old's perspective... Parasail joes was awesome. It was thrilling ,scary ,fun all that stuff .It was pretty cool and it was my first time parasailing and it was pretty cool there might be a better place so I can't completely say five star but it's good for a first time and I might change my opinion later sooooooo yeah.
