Gustavo was highly organized and hospitable when planning the trip. We were curious about the different aspects of sailing and he taught us so much! We had a blast and he was really considerate of the whole family. So much fun & can’t wait to do it again!
We had the most incredible sail with Marc. He was so generous and patient with teaching our little boys how to sail the boat, how to read the compass, steer and direct the boat into the wind etc… we had an absolutely perfect day and the whole process couldn’t have been easier from booking to departure. We will definitely book Marc for another sail!!
Eddie was the perfect captain, he had such a great vibe. We were late to the boat because our Uber driver got lost. He gave us as much extra time as he could. The boat was nice and clean as well. I will definitely book again the next time I’m in California.
We had a very memorable experience. We chartered the 60’ Azimuth Yacht. The interior was built of hardwood and leather which gave off a really soothing and welcoming ambiance. We’ll definitely aim to do it again soon!
