Captain Chris was fantastic!! From booking to boating, nothing short of amazing. First time tubing and knee boarding for most of us, we couldn’t have done it without captain Chris! We had the best girls day and cannot wait to book again! Thanks so much!

I got the opportunity to spend a day on the water with Chris this past weekend. We fished a tournament together on Cumberland lake me as his Co-angler. It was a wonderful experience and he put me on fish so I was able to place in the tournament. Aside from the fishing, he was a pleasure to be around and learn from. I hope to get the chance to fish with him again. Thanks Capt, Chris, and good luck this weekend.

We recently enjoyed a Low Key Water Sports Package In Nolin Lake hosted by Boating Adventures With Captain Chris! I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to dive into a world of aquatic excitement. Captain Chris was so patient and kind, and our boys had an absolute ball as you can see from the video posted. A 10+ rating for anyone of all ages and we can't wait for our next Adventure. The boys said this was the highlight of their summer vacation in Kentucky. It was their first time tubing and now they feel like they are Pros! Watching our Miles take his first leap from the boat to the water was a highlight! High Fives all Around Captain Chris!!
