Captain Trevor and Lee were great hosts on the boat! It was fun to sail out to our first stop with good tunes and run punch. There were only 7 guests so it felt like our own private cruise on a beautiful boat with beautiful scenery. Lunch was delicious and the Tarzan swing was the highlight. Captain Trevor's backflip was... More

Sailing on a regular sailboat with few people is more enjoyable to my wife and I than being on a large catamaran. Diane's sailboat has a max of 20 people and it never felt cramped. Diane and Trevor make the trip relaxing and enjoyable. The drinks and food were superb and the Tarzan swing entertaining. We highly recommend this excursion. More

Di (owner), Trevor (captain) and Caroline (Di's 5 year old daughter) do a great job at making the day an easy one. Caroline is very social and wonderful. Di makes everyone feel comfortable, makes a great chicken curry and rum punch, and shows the rest of us how to dive off the Tarzan swing! Very fair price (book through their... More

Diane and Trevor treat you like old friends from the first time you step on board.The boat is awesome and Diane couldn't have been a more pleasant host.They make you feel at home and comfortable even if you have never sailed before. Food,drink and music for the asking. You have to try the Tarzan swing!! April 19,2012 More

My son and I took this day trip with Random Wind. Ages 21 & 55 and we had the best day. The service and food was wonderful. Everyone loved the Tarzan swing was the BEST! I would do this trip again the next time we are in St. Maarten. Thank you Random Wind! More

We were a family of 3 and there were two other families on board. We all book this trip based on reviews on here and were not disappointed. It was a fun time even though I got a bit sea sick. Lots of swimming, drinks and snacks. Lunch was plentiful. I would highly recommend this excursion. More
