  • Great day on the water

    We had a great day with Andy on the water. He was so attentive to our youngest daughter who wanted to captain the boat. We chased the dolphins, listened to some great music and ate and drink some food. Thanks Andy for making the girls first sailing experience a great time.

  • Awesome

    What an awesome experience! They were friendly and easy to talk to. We took our 3 year old and it was perfect! We got to see tons of dolphins, airplanes and lots of other boats. We will do it again!!!

  • Capt. Andy is an excellent sailor and his Morgan 40' boat "Emerald Lady" a dream to sail. Very relaxing time on the boat sailing the beautiful Destin coast and bay.

  • sailing with bonnie and andy

    Thank you so much, even though the weather didn't cooperate, we had a great time doing some good sailing with Captains Bonnie and Andy. They were both professional, and made the whole experience a fun day. When I go back, I will go with them again, and maybe this time, the clouds will move away.

    I would recommend sailing with either of these captains at anytime.

  • Sailing in Destin

    Captain Andy was very nice and accomodating; including everyone in the experience. He allowed my husband and son (experienced sailors) to take the helm and they learned somne valuable sailing tips. The Emerald Lady could use some updating and remodeling but is getting a new inboard motor soon. Wish we could have been out longer and sailed in the gulf instead of just the bay but it was cold and the weather can't be controlled. Thank you for your hospitality.

    You guys are coming back to help me remodel right? I had a blast with you guys over the Holidays after a long hiatus from sailing. Come back when we spend our summer nights on the Gulf. This time you guys are driving the boat the entire time!

  • We had a fabulous afternoon sailing with Capt. Andy and second mate Capt. Jack - both great fun and very knowledgeable about the area and good sailors. After cruising down the harbor we were escorted into the gulf by dolphin and sailed along the coast. Refreshments and catching some fish and well as a brief sortie into the bay on our return. We will be back!!

    We both had a blast with you guys too! I like how you refer to Captain Jack as second mate. I could get used to that. Take care. See ya guys the next time you come around.

  • We had a good time with Captain Andy on a 2.5 Hr Sunset cruise. You can't go out very far in that amount of time, but it really didn't matter to us. Our oldest son (7) enjoyed piloting the boat from time-to-time, and both our boys enjoyed seeing a fish reeled in. The boat was a little older than others, but still got the job done perfectly and did not take away from the experience. I would definately recommend a trip with Andy.

  • Boat was a little old and in somewhat of a disrepair. The cruise was down the beach which we would have liked to go out to sea. Captain Andy was very enjoyable and had a couple of songs to sing. Trip Shock was easy to work with, just think they need to research their clients a little better. Overall, for the money it was reasonable.
