Dave made this so easy, I give him a few ideas and he cultivated and crafted it to life. I couldn't believe how meticulous and beautiful the day was. My sister was truly brought to tears. There was a customized champagne flute, a customized birthday welcome sign on an easel, fresh flowers, balloons, the colors and decor were honestly all on point!!! We were even able to come up with a chef inspired menu to hit the notes of our food favorites and Dave even has menu customized and laminated for the event. The crewmembers were some of the nicest top-notch service personnel we've ever met. We were even able to come up with a drink menu and they were bartenders on deck too! Truly was white glove service all around. If you put your contract in with Marquis Charters, you will not be disappointed as every dollar will be worth it!!!

Our captain, Rowan, was personable and pleasant, and gave us space to say goodbye as we needed. I know Captain Kirk's couldn't control the weather, but if they did, it couldn't have been a better day. Beautiful sunshine, the water was sparkling, and our loved one had the send-off he wanted. Many thanks to everyone at Captain Kirk's for a pretty much perfect experience. We highly recommend them for anyone looking for a comfortable and sensitive voyage when scattering a loved one's ashes in the Bay.

I took a liking to him right off the bat. I knew I wanted to get some captain training after buying a boat almost 20 feet bigger than the one I had previously so I reached out to him. He's great to work with. He shows up on time. He builds your confidence quickly. He builds off of your strengths and works with you on what he thinks you need to safely operate a boat correctly and safely. He's not a rigid teacher. He makes you feel comfortable in this process. He's very patient. I highly recommend him if you need any type of boat training. He's also a one stop call. No matter what you need in the boating world he either has the guy on his team or he knows the right guy to send you too. During my time training with him over a weekend I noticed him great after care. He was helping one customer after another with their needs. Big and small. Great company. Thank you

I gladly recommend Riptide Charters…read more It was my friend's last wish to have her ashes scattered at sea in front of her favorite beach in Half Moon Bay - Miramar Beach. I did some research online and found Riptide Charters - Captain William Smith. Captain Smitty has been offering his scattering service for decades and he holds all the necessary licensing. His vessel Riptide is conveniently located at Pillar Point Harbor at H dock, easily accessible and there's free parking at the harbor. I gave him a call and everything was smooth sailing from there. I got the necessary permit from the funeral home, and we just had the ash scattering this past Sunday. It was very dignified and memorable and I would like to thank Captain Smitty and his crew for their professionalism. Next to a great turnout of the organizational part of the scattering, we had great weather that day as well! Thank you!
