This is my first time fishing in Florida and in the Gulf. My friend (who recently moved here and…read morehas a boat) and I decided to charter a local Captain for local tips and experience. For background; I have fished in numerous places throughout the world and have been on many a Charter boat. Our experience with Captain Mike Rabon ranks up there in my top 3. We told him what we were looking for and he exceeded our expectations. Captain Mike not only put us on fish immediately but explained and took the time in providing tips and techniques. I highly recommend chartering with Captain Mike.

I can honestly say that in 30 years of owning multiple boats and dealing with numerous dealers that I have never found a dealer for car or boats that conducts business like Antonietti Marine. The owner truly cares about there clients satisfaction, from parts to service these guys go the extra mile. They have been there for me every step of the way. I highly recommend them if your looking for a new boat, need service or just need a part. The old joke of the best days of owning a boat is the day you buy it and the day you sell it must have never worked with this company. I can't say enough good things but I'll sum up this review with a THANK YOU. You have made owning a boat a pleasure.

I don't know where to start…read more This was the absolute best day. We started at the River Ventures Dive Center at 6:30AM, where we were offered coffee, tea, hot cocoa and snacks, and spent the next bit with an educational video and a wetsuit fitting. From there, we took a bus to the dock, in the most gorgeous sunrise light. let by our Guide Nat. Captain Emerson met us at the covered, heated pontoon, and our group set off through the water, for the protected manatee zone. The water was FULL of our sweet sea potatoes... in fact, it was difficult to even get off the boat because our new friends swam right up to the ladder. Nat had given excellent instructions. We immediately leaned into our pool noodles and gently followed her lead through the water. It took just moments before manatees were all around us. We stayed calm and quiet, and they either continued snoozing, or swam up to investigate us. Nat was on point with the camera, and with showing us things like the tarpon and sheepshead fish, and she was also shared little details about the manatees as we floated. Of course, with nature, there are no guarantees, and I really had no idea what to expect, but I was absolutely delighted by the interactions we had. The cold snap absolutely played into our favor, and I am so glad we showed up with our adventurous spirit. When we returned to the boat, there were more snacks, as well as hot cocoa, coffee, tea, and a variety of drinks in the cooler (water, beer, wine, soda, and white claws). We were so grateful for the boat covering and heater as we made our way back to the dock, and we had great chats with Nat, Emerson, and the other group on our tour. Was it cold? Sure. But the water felt great at 72ºF, and our wetsuits did a wonderful job of protecting us and keeping us buoyant. Our experience was incredible, from booking, to engaging with the staff with any questions we had, to the actual tour itself. The photos and videos were absolutely phenomenal, as well, and we were happy to purchase the package, as well as some gifts from the souvenir shop. We will be back for more manatee viewing, or to try one of their other tours. Thank you so much for the best day!

After the transaction I left the lot to proceed home. I made it 18 miles down the road and noticed smoke coming from the right trailer tire. I pulled off to inspect and found that the bearings in the hub were shot and it was metal on metal with no grease. I immediately contacted Mathew and was told to either find a repair shop close by or go to Walmart and buy grease and pack it with grease to get home. I asked if they could send a service technician to make the repair and was told they can't send a technician that far. Basically the sale was done and I was left stranded. I found a mobile trailer repair service and their findings were that there was absolutely no grease and the trailer had not been serviced or they would have noticed it. Not only were the hub, and bearings ruined but the axle was now ruined as well. I tried multiple times to contact both Mathew and the owner Brad Yeager but they won't return my calls. Per the mobile trailer repair service, had I not pulled off, the potential damage could have not only endangered my life but those on the road around me. Their lack of help and accountability is truly disgusting. I would not recommend their business to anyone.

BUYER BEWARE - I was looking for a reference for a business that does piling repair and called…read moreDecks and Docks Hudson, FL 17438 US Hwy 19 Unit 5 Hudson, FL 34667 Phone: 727-755-8100 to ask if they knew anyone? I got an enthusiastic referral to Fear No Fish Underwater Marine Services, Springhill Fl (727) 271-0722. I called Fear No Fish Underwater Marine Services and explained that I was looking for repairs to stilts on a stilt home. I figured a piling repair company would be the next best thing. June of 2022 after multiple delays in making the trip to our place to give us an estimate, Nick Herring arrived. We showed him the stilts and explained we wanted to repair rotted pilings. He felt that the snap jackets he used on boat docks was the solution. He gave us an estimate. It was not cheap. However, we liked Nick's candor. We also liked supporting small businesses (especially since Covid had challenged so many) and agreed on the plan to add snap jackets to the pilings. Nick explained that it would take a week or two to do all. We were not in a rush, but eager to get started. I did a search for Fear No Fish reviews and found only listings and no real reviews on Facebook, Google, or Yelp. I asked for their business information and got their Sunbiz.org Limited Liability company information from Krista, his wife, the company CEO. We gave the requested hefty deposit. The next week Nick was to start -- once he got his supplies. The week came and we were told the machine that makes the snap jackets broke down. I was suspicious since I got the referral from Decks and Docks. So, I called Decks and Docks and they said they had supplies. So, I called Nick, and he said the person I was talking to doesn't have all he needs. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. MY MISTAKE. I should have sought a full refund from my credit card company and moved on. However, the property is remote where few hired hands are available and since I'd worked with lots of home improvement contractors over the years for my day job, I understood cash flow challenges and was unusually sympathetic to a small business owner and his family. We wanted this to work. July I was fretting about what to do as we waited for the supplies to come in. Finally in AUGUST Nick had supplies and came with a crew of two and worked a whole week. I was feeling better. I met Krista on one of those trips. I was feeling good about a week's work. We had paid a deposit equal to 10 piling repairs. He had 4 completed that week. Nick asked for an additional infusion of cash to pay his employees that week. I felt that we were moving forward and agreed. I even said jokingly, "I have money in the bank of Nick." I chalked his issues up to procrastination. He was traveling an hour and a half to our place to work. I was understanding. Nick made some observations that week in August 2022 about the differences in the dock piling work and this stilt work. I respected that. I called a friend in construction and asked his opinion. We paused, hired a Structural Engineer. The new plan: repair the remaining pilings including the old rotting concrete with strong ties. Nick wanted to do the work and gave a new estimate. We approved. Repairs were to resume in October. November no work happened. December Nick revealed he ordered the wrong size strong ties. January, we ordered strong ties and got them in 10 days. We cancelled our work with FEAR NO FISH UNDERWATER MARINE SERVICES in January and requested a refund of the monies they were holding. We got some back from our credit card for the infusion of extra cash, but we still have money due and wanted to settle on the balance from the remaining unfinished repairs. As of June 2023, one year from the start of this agreement, we still have not received the balance of the money due us. Fear No Fish is no longer communicating with us. We're reasonable people. We gave every chance for this to work. Please do not make the same mistakes we did.
