We Didn't Want To Leave!
We had a fabulous week aboard Captain Kris’ catamaran. We were a little apprehensive at first as there were no reviews, but as soon as we met Kris and boarded the boat, all our apprehension went away! Kris is a very kind and patient person. He is a very experienced sailor and told us many stories of his past sailing expeditions – including going to Antarctica! The boat had plenty of space for us all to spread out. We had sent Kris our ideal itinerary in advance, and he told us it was optimistic. We had great weather for our week, and were able to get in every spot we wanted to stop at, and then some!
The first night Kris had Painkillers ready for us – and they were amazing - even better than that at the Soggy Dollar Bar! We cooked most of our meals on the boat – which took some time as the stove and oven are a bit small for cooking for 9 people – but we had no issues. We helped Kris with the moorings and he even let my son drive the boat at times.
We very much appreciated all the amenities on the boat including: snorkel gear, a paddleboard, a single kayak and an inflatable tandem kayak, pool noodles and chair floats to float in. Kris also has an Optimist which is a mini sailboat that he used to teach kids how to sail on. Most of our group had a turn learning to sail – even the men! Kris took his time and taught each person individually as much as much as they wanted.
If you are considering this kind of vacation – we highly recommend Kris and his catamaran!
