Fishing Charter on 38' Dawson Sportfish Yacht in Norfolk, Virginia
Damani was excellent and the boat was tidy, well kept, and perfect for our needs. We were even able to see the boat a day early to ensure all of our personal items would fit inside the cabin, which they easily did. I would absolutely recommend Damani and Salty Girl charters to anyone.

Melges 32 - The Ultimate Racing Experience
The boat was in perfect condition, ready for anything we could ask for. Doug sails and races on a weekly basis, often in this particular boat, so his feel for the boat, the wind, and the waters we sailed in are well honed. The boat is forgiving, and Doug was unflappable. An encouraging beginner experience, and very fast under experienced guidance. I did not hope for as good an experience, and cannot offer a higher endorsement. Top marks.

My first time on a boat and it was absolutely amazing. He made sure we were comfortable. During the trip I began to get a little motion sick but he took care of me. Our trip couldn't have been better. Thank you so much making my birthday so fun and memorable.
