Pat and her first mate, Lean, provided an awesome sailing, snorkeling, dining experience. Our lunch was cooked on board, served on china. Dessert was death by chocolate served on china with a silver spoon. Pat took us to Maho Bay where we enjoyed some of best snorkeling ever. Highly recommend. More

My family visited St Thomas on December 12 and were very excited about our sail over to St John. We were not disappointed!!! Pat had arranged for a taxi pick up at our cruise port and Trini did a great job of getting us to the marina quickly and shared a lot of history about the island with us. At... More

We were lucky enough to be Pat's first sailing since her return from Bermuda. She offered us a modified cruise-ship day since we wanted to hang out longer than a half day, but couldn't spend the entire time on a full day because of the cruise ship schedule. Getting a cab to Red Hook was a piece of cake. There... More

In planning our vacation in St Thomas, we did a lot of Web surfing and decided to go for a one day sailing trip. This turned out to be one of the real highlights of our trip! Pat and first mate Mandy were superb. In addition to Pat's in depth knowledge of the area, islands and sailing, she brought us... More

My family and I just returned from a cruise to the Caribbean on the Carnival Dream. Typically, we book a ship shore excursion, but I wanted an excursion that would be more custom. Pat was so quick to return my questions via e-mail. When we arrived in St. Thomas, we got a taxi to Red Hook and met Pat at... More

We sailed with Captain Pat and Ray on May 31, 2011 during our stop over in St. Thomas during our cruise. First and foremost the level of customer service from booking to end of day was perfect. From the moment that you set foot aboard the independence you feel very welcome and at ease and by the end of the... More

We made plans to sail with Capt. Pat and Ray for two full days--just the two of us and them. Why? While we enjoy beaches and snorkeling, we really just wanted to sail and sail and sail. And that we did! Pat and Ray are full of island information and stories, they are fun to be with and certainly know... More
