The boat was immaculate, fully equipped

“ Tyler made our day on the river an incredibly enjoyable experience! The boat was immaculate, fully equipped, and totally ready to go when we arrived. Tyler's quick training session of boating operation and his knowledge of the James River was invaluable."

Service was impeccable...

I highly recommend Kingfish Boat rental for For your next boating getaway! It’s in a beautiful area of the James River! Service was impeccable from the very first time I called with a few questions. Booking was simple, easy and informative. We came prepared with all our fishing gear, snacks and beverages and had a ball. My two year-old had so much fun on his first boat ride/fishing trip and made many good memories with the family! Thank you, Tyler and Kingfish Boat Rental for a wonderful, peaceful and worry free day! We will do this again.
