Dear Captain Rob-
Thanks again for the great time and wonderful experience! I will never forget the wonderful crew and wonderful time you guys gave us!

Well, I sure can't thank you and your crew enough for the experience I (and my family) had. I would be delighted if you would use the pictures and my emails on your website. I meant every word I said/typed. I will be looking forward to the new web-site page.
Thank you so much for the memories and for the opportunity for helping you out with the page on the website. Email me if you need anything else or for anything for that matter.

Thanks!
Anne Kapla

Review from Cruise Critic

I cannot say enough good things about this. This was the highlight of our 11 night RCI Brilliance cruise that we just returned from. We have been on 6 cruises and I think this is the best excursion we have ever done. This is the first time I have posted a review on ANYTHING, that tells you how strongly I feel about it!
I did not have a lot of information when we decided to book this, lots of people asking questions but I did not find a lot of answers, and the price was SO LOW, I have to admit I wondered what the catch was?
I also have to say that I was very UN-impressed with the Fantasy daysail in St Thomas, which we did 2 days before this. We paid 3x the price and there was absolutely NO comparison. We really kicked ourselves for spending so much money on that one, but that is another story.
Anyway, "we" include my husband and our 3 yr old daughter. I was a little nervous about bringing her on something like this, but it turned out great, she had a blast.
Cpts Rob and Mike made us feel welcome immediately. We were very surprised there were only 3 other people on the sail except for us, we expected it to be full. (I can't believe that the cruislines were selling out these jam-packed catamarans and no one is booking this one) Rob and Mike were so nice and hospitable, always offering drinks and seeing what they could do to make you happy. The food was SO good, trays of cheese, bread, mussels, and they actually had a full grill connected to the back of the boat where Rob grilled BBQ chicken! They had the most amazing rum punches, I normally am not a big rum punch fan but I just kept drinking them and drinking them! They had Buffet playing in the background, it was a perfect day.
Our daughter got her sea legs quickly and was mesmerized by the tall sails and watching Rob climb up into the mast to set the sails. We were very lucky to have a clear day with smooth water, it was absolutely beautiful.
The highlight of the trip was when we stopped to swim. Our daughter had a floaty vest on and was happily floating next to the boat in the clear water with my husband (with a beer in one hand and a noodle in the other) - when Rob asked me if I might like to climb up the mast and jump from a perch WAY up there - I decided, "Why not?" (more to see the shocked look on my husband's face) I shimmied up there and JUMPED into the water - 35 feet in the air, my daughter yelled "That's my mommy!" as I jumped - I will never forget it!!
The only time our daughter acted up was when we told her it was time to get out of the water, and then when it was time to get off the boat! I also overheard one of the others that was on the sail with us (an 18 year old boy who was traveling with his mother) say that it was one of the best experiences he had ever had.
As you can tell from this lengthy review I thought this was well worth sharing with others - I have learned a lot from these boards and wanted to make sure I passed along this gem of a sail to others.

Review from Shoretrips - C Spolentini

(Here's) an email to let you know how fantastic our excursion was!! It could not have been more PERFECT from the beautiful weather, fantastic crew, small group (we had 5 and there was just one other couple!), great food and rum punch and breath taking scenery. We especially enjoyed snorkeling in the most beautiful water we’ve ever seen. Even my mother-in-law (who swore she was just going to stay on the boat and watch) got in and floated around with the help of the noodles they provided for us. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants an excursion AWAY from the big crowds that come off the cruise ships. We kept commenting that it felt like we were out on a friend’s boat for the day.

Review from Shoretrips - J Risner

Our last excursion of our trip and by far our favorite excursion - was the Pirate Ship Adventure in St. Maarten. It was absolutely wonderful and we encountered no difficulties at all. The Captain and his mates were terrific, the food and drinks outstanding and we all had a great time - I would return to St. Maarten just to sail with them again!! Overall we had a wonderful experience with Shore trips. You always want to get the most of every minute on the islands that you can. We are so glad our agent recommended Shore Trips. We appreciate everyone's effort to insure we had a great trip
