Was a very nice trip and afternoon. The only thing better would have been if we could have used the sails. Very informative guide and enjoyed him very much. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon.

Thank you for your kind review. You are exactly right that not having the gift of wind to move SV/Shamrock along on the waterways feels like a missing piece of the experience. I wish we had control over such rare times when the coastal breeze leaves us with no choice but to move our 17 ton hull along with the help of a 60 hp diesel auxillary. I hope you will come back for a future adventure. Just send us a note referencing this review and I'll discount your next adventure. All my best, Captain Jim

Afternoon sail with family ,breeze was just a enough just to have a smooth sail. Jim was very professional and knowledgeable.

Thanks so much. We had a Bermuda High hovering over the Wilmington coastline and the weather made for a gentle experience of running northbound with the SSW 9 knots of wind. I'm always amazed that such light winds can move 17 tons of sailboat. Until the next adventure, all my best, Captain Jim
