It was a beautiful day for sailing. I have never been on a sail boat before, what fun! My friends and I sailed with them at the beginning of April, 2013. Captain Dave, his first Mate Jocelyn, and Sophia (the sweet pup) made it a great day! The food was fabulous and we were never without something to drink. Very... More

My kids and I have visited St. Thomas many times, but we've never been out on a sailboat. Our day with Capt Dave and Jocelyn was wonderful, and we all had a great time. The hospitality was warm, the food was exceptional, and Dave found all kinds of good spots for us to snorkel and swim. This was a memorable... More

It was simply a lovely day, perfect weather, a wonderful lunch...best pork chop ever! Jocelyn and Dave were so gracious and made us feel so welcomed! Our 15 year old daughter enjoyed herself as well...so relaxed she took a snooze. Capt. Dave handled the boat with such ease and shared lots of stores about the islands and we stopped in... More

What a great experience! My Kids loved Steering the Boat. The food was great! Snorkeling was fantastic!

The day after exchanging vows in beautiful St. John, we took our family on a sailing trip with Captain David (Capt. Dave had a prior engagement) and First Mate Jocelyn. The service was incredible and the ride spectacular. Jocelyn made certain we were never without a drink in hand, and the snacks were quite delicious. Snorkeling was amazing, and we... More

We have sailed before in St Thomas with another company that was pretty disappointing and we tried Oh Be joyful based on other TA recommendations. This was a GREAT DAY !...our captain, who filled in for Capt Dave did an outstanding job on a pretty rough day. His knowledge of the area as well as his skills were clearly evidently... More

We took a sailing excursion with Captain Dave and first mate Jocelyn on 02/23/13 to celebrate my brother-in-law’s 50th birthday. The group consisted of 4 couples and Dave’s boat accommodated us well. The day was windy which was perfect for sailing but also made the waters around St.Thomas/St. John a little choppy. Two of the people were prone to sea... More

Captain Dave said with sincerity that he hoped we would have an experience to remember, and it was that plus more! EXCELLENT! Relaxed, knowledgeable, accommodating, kind, funny, and some of the best food in the Islands (try his pork chops!). The food had a 5 star presentation, and oh be joyful!...the greatest Bloody Mary's! Very fine sailing, and wonderful snorkel... More

As I write, I cannot think of enough superlatives by which to describe the experience provided by the Oh Be Joyful charter. Although we were a party of eight, Capt. Dave and his crew were attentive to our individual whims, and provided the best sailing experience one could possibly hope for.Each one of us were made to feel as if... More
