We had a wonderful experience! Eric made my boyfriend’s birthday extra special with loads of dolphin and whale sightings. The sailboat is beautiful and well maintained. Everything was spectacular and communication couldn’t have been easier. Hope to enjoy another sunset cruise with Eric again!
Captain Eric and his First Mate, Nate, showed us a wonderful time sailing out of Oceanside Harbor. We highly recommend the Captain and his classic sailing ship! My family & I chartered the boat primarily to disperse my mother's ashes. Although this was a somewhat sad experience for us, Captain Eric could not have been more helpful and empathetic. He even provided a bucket for that purpose. Nate's hors d'oeuvres and the champagne were top notch quality and most appreciated. (Not one of the seven in our party experienced motion sickness.) We also appreciated the Captain's willingness to take pictures of our group. He had shared lots of interesting "sea stories. His love for his boat, and the care he devotes to it, really shines through. All in all, our morning was a relaxing & pleasant experience thanks to Captain Eric & Nate!
I can’t say enough great things about Eric and the experience. The boat is a classic beauty sure to impress just about anyone. The captain has the right mix of professionalism and know-how while keeping things comfy and fun. Have no doubt when booking. This is the perfect sailing adventure you’ve envisioned.
