Excellent day on a wonderful real yacht, with a fantastic skipper who really knows how to get the best from the available conditions.

Awesome day sail for our family of 4. Loved it all. Especially exciting to see Orcas! The service, snacks and lunch and island stop for a snorkel were all brilliant. Definitely recommend for a great day out on the water.
