I have trouble expressing how much I enjoyed our day sail on the Winifred. It was one of the most wonderful experiences we have had in a long time. The sail was relaxing and the snorkeling invigorating. I have been telling everyone who has ask that sailing with you is the best way to see the Virgin Islands. I even met a travel and tourism representative for the Virgin Islands at a trade show the weekend we got back and told her all about the amazing time we had sailing.
Thank you for a wonder vacation experience,
~ Zeke and Amanda Changuris
"We began our sail at 9:30 in the morning with Captain Sharon and First Mate Jacquie. Only one other couple joined us on this day sail - it was like having a private charter! We began the day by sailing around St John, and our guides were quick to point out all of the surrounding islands as well. Everyone was extremely friendly and knowledgable about the area, and Jacquie was a wonderful snorkel guide. We were able to see eagle rays, turtles, star fish and an array of fish while getting information about everything we were seeing. After snorkeling we had a delicious lunch, a few rum punches and settled in for the sail back to St Thomas. We returned to dock around 3:30 and couldn't have been happier - it was well worth the money spent. I would recommend this for anyone - couples old and young (we are in our twenties while the other couple who sailed with us was middle aged), families or small groups. It was the highlight of our trip - Sharon was the best! (She even e-mailed us pictures from the sail - you really can't ask for a better host!)" ~ posted on "Trip Advisor"

"I just wanted to write a quick note and tell you how impressed and blown away my wife Laura and I were with our day on Winifred. With great respect for the preservation of the reef and sea life your first mate showed us many wonders below the suface of the sea. After traveling to more than 13 countries over the years and experiencing many adventure in my life my day-trip aboard Winifred ranks at the top!" ~Mike and Luara Dickerman

"Thanks again so much for your thoughtfulness and providing such wonderful memories for our entire family! Your guidance really helped me overcome my fear of the ocean and to be able to enjoy a truly breathtakingly beautiful life experience with snorkeling." ~Kris Hershberge, Wadsworth, OH
"The sail over to Honeymooners Island and Cannel Bay was exquisite and the snorkeling was just as you said...amazing...... Hands down, sailing with you on Winifred was our favorite activity on St. Thomas! The one thing from our trip that we do regret is waiting until the day before we left to sail. If we had had another day we would definitely spend it sailing again on the Winifred. I guess there's always our next trip." ~ Melissa Sray - Michigan
"Winifred is a beautiful boat, and you have a right to be proud. I will remember, as long as I live, the trip across to St. John. Debsue and I sat forward, getting drenched by the spray coming over the bow. Unforgettable. And then there was lunch... It was as close to a perfect day as I can imagine." ~ Jim Walton - Elgin, Illinois
