Max is wonderful and provides a great day of snorkeling as well as lunch! We stayed at her apartment as well at Lions Gate and that was wonderful as well. Her and her 1st Mate Jordan did a great job serving us and making us feel special.

The first time she was sold out, the second time we were booked and then our ship was diverted becaused of a hurricane, and the third time we were not in port long enough. When I found out we would be porting... More

We recently traveled to St. Thomas on a cruise. I booked a trip with Captain Max in advance after reading her stellar reviews on tripadvisor. To be honest, her reviews are all fantastic and they are right on the money; our experience was nothing short of phenomenal. Our morning began with a bit of chaos as we were a little... More

My husband and I recently traveled to St. Thomas and were lucky enough to be able to book a sailing excursion with Captain Max and her 1st Mate Emma. We had the best time ever....Captain Max and Emma couldn't have been more accomodating and they definetely know what they are doing. We sailed to a beautiful bay at St. John... More

Each time we come to St Thomas, we book a different charter. This time, we booked with Captain Max. Max had emailed me a number of times, so I knew to get to Red Hook and where to meet her. We boarded a small dinghy and went to the sailboat. Climbing into the sailboat wasn't too difficult but my spouse... More

My husband and I sailed with Captain Max & her mate Emma last week. It was the best excursion of our cruise (and we had a couple of other really good ones!). Friendly service, great food, great snorkeling locations. Transportation to/from cruise ship pier was smooth. I highly recommend Captain Max to anybody visiting St Thomas!

I recently had the opportunity to sail from St. Thomas to St. John with Captain Max & 1st Mate Emma on 'Lou', the sloop. I had such a great time that I now will include 'Sail with Captain Max' on every trip to St. Thomas. Captain Max is a very knowledgeable and competent captain. Her 1st Mate Emma is very... More

I went on a solo vacation to St. Thomas and sailed on 3 different boats out of Red Hook. I had a great time on each, all were a little bit different. What set Capt Max apart was the wonderful friendly nature of Max and Emily. They were great! I felt like not only did I have a great sail,... More

A perfect day with Captain Max and first mate Emma! Beautiful boat, friendly and knowledgeable crew, great food - everything was wonderful! Because the boat is small with only 6 passengers Capt. Max and Emma make sure the day is tailored to you. You can sit on the bow and just enjoy the sail and scenery in peace and quiet... More

I’ve been in the islands for donkey years (ie, a very long time) and sailed LOTS. Captain Max is a real gem, her taste in boats rivals her great pick of crew, Emily. Oh what a picture perfect day – reefed main for sweet sail in small swell and a fair breeze to crystal clear bays loaded with fish, coral,... More
