We chartered Kuralu for the day...on a stop over in Tortola; supposed to stop at Sandy Spit for a swim and snorkel, but the water was too rough. Gary sailed about 5 minutes away to Little Jost Van Dyke, and we were able to swim and snorkel for 45 or so minutes. After that stop, we sailed to Jost Van... More

We took both charters that Gary offers going to Sandy Spit and Jost Van Dyke and Norman Island (the caves and the Indians). Gary and his crew Lauren and Edward were extremely professional, friendly and went out of their way to make sure our sailing experience was the highlight of our trip to Tortola. Lots of fish (even barracuda which... More

It's been over a month since our trip to the BVI. I day dream about our week we spent together in paradise almost everyday. We decided to do a day sail at the last minute of our trip. We had already been to Jost and Virgin Gorda, so a day sail to Normand island and the Indians was perfect. The... More

My wife and I spent the day with Gary and Laurie yesterday, and had a great time. The catamaran first took us out to Sandy Spit, which is a picture perfect beach you could make a Corona commercial at (depending on who you ask, it was.) A nice reef runs right off the beach, good for snorkeling and drops to... More

On 4/10/13, went on my first day sail cruise to Yost Van Dyke with Captain Gary and Lauren on Karalu Catamaran Charters. It was the most amazing experience I've ever had. I'm in love with sailing now!! Lauren was so friendly and informative. I really enjoyed chatting with her! Captain Gary was so knowledgeable and provided a comfortable, relaxing sail.... More

Back in mid-March my wife and I, along with another couple, spent a great day on the Kuralu with Gary and Lauren. Their knowledge of the local area and friendly attitude was much appreciated. The excellent weather and beautiful waters near Tortola were memorable. Lauren recommended to a couple of sailing books to me that been a good read and... More

Today was a great day! We booked Kuralu for a daysail to Jost van Dyke for our party of four. We left the dock at Sopers Hole promptly at 9:30 after introductions and a professional safety briefing by Captain Gary. We enjoyed a fine and brisk sail (main, jib and staysail sails all up) to Sandy Spit for some snorkeling... More

Six of us who were on a cruise together went out for a day excursion with Captain Gary, his 1st Mate and Grommet the sailer-dog. We had a wonderful time! Some people snorkled while others relaxed on the boat, and we all enjoyed a delicious lunch and drinks. We had asked specifically if they could take us to the Soggy... More

We recently returned from a weeklong visit to Tortola -- including a full day sail with Gary, Lauren and Grommet on the Kuralu. It was perfect from start to finish. Most importantly, the Kuralu limits its passenger load to 14 people, allowing everyone on board to have ample space to enjoy the ride, the scenery and the company on board.... More
