I was on a family vacation to St. Thomas, VI. I had never been to the Caribbean, and my partner and I snuck away for a sail, and chose Captain Max for my first sailing trip ever, and first experience snorkeling. IT WAS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE...the sky was blue, the water was calm, and Captain Max made... More

We loved our day with Captain Max and first mate Julie. Both were focused on providing a great experience and sharing local knowledge. Great conversations, good food, as many drinks as you wanted and they even packed up our snorkel gear at the end of the day. The weather was in question at the beginning of the day, but it... More

Had a great time sailing with Captain Max, mate Julie and one other couple during our recent vacation on St. Thomas. Sailed from Red Hook over to St. John, stopping to snorkel at Hawksnest & Caneel Bay. The snorkeling was great at both locations. Julie served a great rum punch but she didn't come around to fill our glasses as... More

Four of us were stopping at St. Thomas while on a Cruise. We wanted to go snorkeling and see the beautiful water and Island of St. John. We easily arranged the excurison via e-mail with Captain Max. Her boat will hold 6 but we decided to keep our sail private and just the four of us went. She arranged for... More

This is the second time we have sailed and snorkelled with Captain Max and both times it was the highlight of our vacation. The first time we only went for a half day and it definitely wasn't long enough. We had our adult children with us the first time and they thought they would get bored on a boat all... More

We sailed with Cap. Max to St John in April. Overall, the trip was pretty good ,but there were some definite pros and cons. The pros: Julie the mate was an absolute doll, we did see turtles,a nurse shark, sting rays and bunches of conch and the lunch was very tasty . The cons: the boat was too small for... More

Sailing with Captain Max was the pinnacle of our amazaing week in St. Thomas. We were sailed to Caneel Bay at St. John. The snorkeling was amazing, not only incredible fish but the coral was the most striking that we have seen. We saw turtles and squid as well. The sailing was extremely relaxing. The lunch provided was very yummy,... More

Loved our sailing trip to St. John's with Captain Max & Julie today! Gracious hosts, great lunch on the water, good snorkeling around St. John's, and great company. Glad we took the trip. More

My husband and I found another couple on our Princess cruise to share expenses on a private day sail with Max, and had a great time. Our only complaint would be that it takes so long to sail to St John's to snorkel that we did not have as much time in the water as we might like. But to... More
