We had a lot of fun sailing with Pete and his crew. My friend and I were able to help bring up the main sail and steer the ship. Pete provided historical information about the island and about some of the famous people that have lived there.

Lucked out with nice weather and some good wind. Enjoyed the crew. Captain Peter very knowledgeable of the area and large homes along intercostal waterways. Deck hands very helpful and fun helping with sailing (grinding). How wouldn’t want to sail on a world class sail boat!!!

It was such a fabulous experience and Captain Peter is quite an interesting person. He was so friendly and eager to take your picture and make sure you had a nice sail.

It’s hit or miss. The operator cancelled. They called the afternoon before and cancelled due to not enough bookings.
