Thumbs down beware - Treasure harbor marine charters- Fl. Keys

This charter company is out of Islamorada...Fl keys. You get what you pay for. boats are all junk. All the ports/hatches leaked. We refused the 1st boat and then took a 33(or34)ft. Watkins. Leaks...equiptment did not work and holding tank pump was broken. Actually had to use a bucket. Interior wood so rotten that we got splinters. No chase boat. It goes on and on. and this was the better of their boats!

Rotten wood generally is too soft to give splinters...

If you paid for your charter using a credit card, you should ask for a refund.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Suppose I should have been more specific...instead of wood, I should have said wood laminate.

As for credit card co...I got nowhere since I paid before their 3 month cut-off.

Sorry to hear that, I used them about 4 years ago and found them reasonable for the price, guess they have gone down hill. We took the 33 ft watkins, it had a couple of minor issues, but everything (except the anchor light) worked. But no issues that required a "chase boat"
