Awesome time!

John was the perfect captain. We went to celebrate my fathers birthday. It was the perfect way to get to know the area, while still having fun eating, drinking, jamming to music and hanging out with the small intimate party! I highly recommend this trip!

Sail the gray!

Super fun outfit with great staff. Boat was nice, captain was informative and interesting. Only drawback was the weather (gray May, June gloom), but no one's fault. Great time!

I recently watched a film called SonicSea by the NRDC. It explains how noise pollution from shipping and oil drilling is harming the sonar communications between whales and dolphins. Would these sailing experiences harm ocean life?
