Float DC is a fantastic and fun experience. After you sign up online, you and your group meet at…read morethe dock and he gives you the code for entry in case you have to go back and forth. The driver cannot drink so determine before you go who is doing what and then the DD of the boat will go through a 15 min overview of the boat, steering, storages etc. Everyone must sign waivers online beforehand and the driver is required to take a test on boating safety and protocols. The boats have Bluetooth capabilities so bring your phone and connectors. Life jackets are required and depending on your time slot you'll have a good amount of time to go out and come back. Steering can be a little slow so as the driver you have to be aware of your surrounds and abide by boat etiquette. If you've never steered a motor or sail boat before you may want to take a lesson or hire a captain. Handling the boat in rough water would be difficult without sone experience. All in all we had a really great time and I'd rent again but do a longer session so we can go further down the canal. Definitely recommend for all my water enthusiasts.

Goboat was a great experience. I really want to give the experience a 5 however, it was missing a…read morescheduler. I booked on Father's Day and there was a lot of double and triple bookings that took place which turned my 2-hr 1:30 booking into a 2-hr 2:15 booking. I had baby boomers in my party so explaining what was going on to them became a little tedious. Even with that hiccup, Benny & Vusi still delivered great customer service, they were helpful in instructing us how to use the boat, as well as personable and professional. Once on the water, I truly no longer cared about the scheduling situation. With that said, I will very much likely be back.

We were misled by the former membership director of carefreeboat club DMV who made verbal promises…read morethat were never honored in the contract. After signing up, we were overcharged on the initiation fee, and Carefree Boat Club DMV made multiple unauthorized withdrawals including charging a credit card that was not authorized for recurring payments. They also charged us on random dates not stated in the contract. Despite acknowledging these issues and promising refunds and payment pauses, they continued to draft payments on our account. Scary and frustrating! I've called and emailed the membership director, reservations, and member services, but we've been ignored at every level. It's been a scary ride not carefree at all. If you're considering joining, read every detail and be extremely cautious before providing any payment information. This has been a frustrating, stressful, and disappointing!

The prices were reasonable and they had plenty options available to rent (single and double kayaks and paddle boards). They provide the life jackets as well, so you don't really need to bring anything with you. You can make reservations in advance, but they had plenty of availability when I went mid-day on a Friday.

My hunnie shared he stumbled across this place online and being that we love hanging out in the water decided to give this a try. My husband was our captain which provided a romantic intimate evening for just us two.

Went for a sunset cruise for a friend's birthday on 6/29 and it was so nice. The ride is roughly 1.5hrs and you essentially loop the Potomac at Georgetown. It's BYOB, music and food so I'm just rating the views and service. There was a bathroom on board but I didn't use it. The captain was very kind and didn't bother us much outside of giving us the safety precautions and telling us to have a good time. I would definitely do this again.

Entrance is at the wharf by gordon Ramsay's hells kitchen. The greeting we got at the gate...yaaasss! The waiting area was super nice, with bathrooms available. Ms. Taylor came to get us and escort us to the 38-foot "LUXURY" yacht we had booked. We had Captain Ed and Ms. Taylor as deckhand serving us our drinks we brought. They did have a thing of ice water, which was nice. The boat was nice. Comfortable for us. There was an air-conditioned downstairs "inside area" with a bathroom and kitchen area (bedroom too), but we stayed upstairs and in front when we were allowed. Linking up to the blue tooth for music was easy. Had an amazing time and had amazing weather. Got a tour of the larger boat... and already my party of 7 are thinking of bachelorette plans in the future. I have lived in the area for so long and never thought to do this. Saw an IG ad.over a yesr ago. I charter boats in other states often, but never in DC.
