“Great boat, even better people. Excellent guides with a good sense of humor, giving very good and detailed briefings. We got to see some of the best locations in St. Johns, with a bonus visit at Elfinstone reef, as well as snorkling with dolphins. Well kept modern boat with excellent kitchen, nice and big cabins. Very happy with the experience and would not hesitate to go again.”
