We chartered the sailboat as part of a company team building event. Great way to get away from the office and bond with colleagues. Lots of laughs, food, and swimming in the Thimble Islands, as well as a beautiful sunset and attentive Captain and crew. Would definitely recommend to others.

To celebrate my brother's retirement, I treated him and his wife to a day of sailing. Luckily, they asked me to join them! Eric was a gracious host and helpful every step of the way--from arranging the gift certificate to choosing a convenient date. As an inexperienced sailor, I especially appreciated his calm and steady manner and his patience and assistance on board. My brother had a great time talking with the captain about technical matters, and my sister-in-law and I just sat back and enjoyed the beautiful sail into Thimble Islands. Sailing with Captain Treu was really just like sailing with a friend. We are looking forward to the next special event to celebrate at sea!

After wisely postponing our trip due to weather Eric picked a two days we could really enjoy. We sailed out of Stonington CT and were included in every aspect of the sail from docking to raising sails. Except for my sister who just read her book and enjoyed the ride. Eric is an open book of sailing knowledge and willing to share with an easy going humorous personality. Our over night in Sag Harber was spent at a local Pub followed by a tour of the town. While sailing around the Shelter Islands on our trip back we enjoy the scenery and a great lunch. I had never had a Bagget before but now love them. I look forward to my next trip with Eric on a longer get away!
