Super Hosts, great boat, and magical places we would have never thought to visit!

Our time with Captain Ray and First Mate Jennifer was fantastic. They were a joy to be with and for our first charter trip we were pleasantly surprised at how fun sailing was. Food and service were very good. We were on a short trip of 3 nights but got all we wanted from it. They have many options for anchorage depending on your duration of trip and interests. We had 3 that really fit our desires. First night in Brewer's Bay and morning snorkeling was great. Then it was off to Bucc Island sanctuary where it was just us, 2 Catamaran and the birds. So awesome to go out on deck and night and see the Milky Way and so many stars without all the light pollution of civilization. Then off to St. John and anchor at the National Park with beautiful clear water and semi-private beach. We are tall (over 6 ft) and the main cabin was a wedge shaped bed but it was manageable for our stay. You are definitely ready for sleep by the time you get to that point. Our son stayed in the Port cabin and had his own space and head which was nice. Ray and Jennifer had so much local knowledge which made our time on the boat and afterwards very enjoyable. Would recommend you book a trip on this boat.

A few friends and I stayed on the boat for a week with Ray and Jennifer and had a trip of a lifetime. They built us an itinerary the fit our preferences perfectly, cooked us wonderful meals, sailed us to secluded bays and beaches, and showed us the best snorkel and swimming spots. Most importantly, they were a joy to spend a week with. 10/10 vacation — Ray and Jennifer took care of us and we’ll plan to travel again with them in the future.

We had an awesome time!! It was so relaxing! Ray and Jennifer are so nice and always were sure we had everything we needed. I can’t say we won’t be back! Such a fun trip!! 😊

The week we spent on board this boat exceeded our expectations. The boat was very comfortable and the food both tasty and plentiful. Ray and Jennifer are excellent "tour guides" and a lot of fun.

We were looking for a sailing vacation in a warm, sunny locale with lots of activity. From the moment I connected with Captain Ray, I knew he would help us design a trip we’d enjoy. With his questions to get to know us, briefing documents and preference checklists, I had no doubt we would be well taken care of. The 2nd member of the crew, his first mate Jennifer, made sure our stay on the boat was comfortable and took our interests into consideration at every step. She helped us get used to ‘life on the water’ very quickly. They both know the US and BVI extremely well and guided us effortlessly on land and in the beautiful blue Caribbean.waters telling tales and giving us a few history lessons at every island.

A week aboard this boat is a trip of a lifetime – and my family and I have been fortunate to have sailed on her twice! It is difficult to put into words what a wonderful experience sailing the islands is. To be on the water, smelling the salt air, feeling the sun on your face, and enjoying a breeze is a feeling that can’t be topped. We were able to visit beaches that wouldn’t be accessible without a boat. We were able to enjoy the best meals prepared by welcoming locals that we would have never know about since they are off the beaten path. We were able to learn sailing basics and, if we wanted, help with some of the sailing duties. Both trips Ray and Jennifer were the ultimate hosts. They planned the itinerary around our interests – from snorkeling, to exploring the islands, to relaxing on the beach. Delicious onboard meals were prepared according to our likes and dislikes, all the while being able to try new delicacies only the islands were able to offer. Our comfort and enjoyment were their number one priority! Even though we just returned from our sailing vacation, my family and I are already planning, and very much looking forward to, our next trip with Ray and Jennifer!

Nothing like ripping along at 8+ knots with all the sails out. Then dropping the sails and anchoring off a bright white, sandy beach with crystal clear turquoise blue waters lapping the shore. Ray & Jen are great hosts and know all the awesome spots to visit in the Windward Islands (Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Bequia Island, Union Island, Tobago Cays, etc.). They're great hosts and their boat was amazingly comfortable.
