Art was great. He completely customized our sailing trip for us on the go as conditions and interests changed. First off, when booking our excursion, Art thoughtfully looked at the weather forecast and picked the perfect day and time for the hands-on sailing we wanted to do. During our sailing, on our way out, we stopped to view dophins and pelicans up close in the channel. While we were out, if we saw dolphins or sea turles we'd point the sailboat in their direction to get a closer look. For most of our trip he let my daughter, son, and I sail upwind and downwind, practicing our tacking and jibing. We were having so much fun, (per Art's suggestions) we ended up staying out an extra hour to watch the sunset. We were one of the last boats in that evening. It was hands down one of our best sailing experiences and Art is such a friendly and accommodating captain. Whether you want to be hands-on and sail like we were, or just kick back and relax and let Art do everything, I highly recommend heading out with Captain Art! You will not be disappointed.
