This was a wonderful, full day sail around the Island of St. Maarten, with a snorkel/swim stop. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, beverages, and rum punch were included. Diane and Trevor were wonderful sailors and a pleasure to be with. Truly a great value and experience. The sailors just added a trapeze you can use to jump into the ocean. It was... more

We had a great time on Random Wind, there were 16 for the day we went, and you never felt squished like on some excusrions. Diane was a great hostess and the captain was a hoot! They were still serving breakfast on board, the lunch and snacks were good and Diane would make sure you always had a refreshment in... more

I have done the Random Wind day sail before and couldn't wait to do it again. It did not disappoint. It was such a wonderful relaxing day on a beautiful sail boat. The snorkel location is beautiful. The lunch was fabulous and the tarzan swing was a hoot. Everyone on the boat had a wonderful time. I went with 5... more

What a great way to see the island! The crew was able to turn an already great day on a boat into an exceptional experience purely from their inviting and hospitable attitudes. I lost my sunglasses the day before and was not able to find another set prior to our departure. Thanks, however, to the generosity of the sailboat's crew... more

Our day out on the RandomWind, was the highlight of our trip! Diane treated us as if we were her guest and not just paying passengers. The day started out by being picked up at Ric’s Place in a little boat and taken out to the sail boat. Breakfast awaited us, croissants, fruit, meats, coffee and juice. They also had... more

June 10, 2009 - Our day on the Random Wind started with breakfast at Rics Place (included in the price of the ticket), then a dingy ride to the boat, a quick vote on where to go and off into the blue! We sailed to Tinntamarre - a beautiful unspoiled island with great snorkeling and mud baths! After some time... more

Was in St. Maarten early in March during the Heineken Regata. Was interested in some new and interesting experiences so spent the first day of the Regatta on the Random Wind observing the races. Granted, I and only I got ill, the weather was rainy and the winds high and, unfortunately I had other ailments at the time. The staff... more

The tour ran in rough seas, White caps on the ocean.. Tour operator said it would run regardless. After getting on within the first hour people were becoming sea sick even after taking bondine. At first stop the hostess gracious gave everyone an option to be bought to the nearest beach and find your own way home. 7 of twelve... more

We were on an Eastern Caribbean cruise the week of April 4th, 2009. Decided to try a different excursion than the crowded ones the cruise lines offer. After a Google search we found information about the "At Random" This is a navy tender that is being used as a day trip boat. We cannot say enough about how wonderful it... more

My wife and I plus 3 other couples did a private charter in early April and it was our best day on the island. The Captain Dean lets us pick our schedule and even ran our time long because he was having a good day with us. Plenty to drink and lunch was very tasty. Also, served some tsty snacks... more
