For a relaxing evening outing on our Ocracoke mini-moon, we opted for a sunset cruise on a schooner with character. Captain Rob is full of stories, quick wit and ready to answer any questions of his maximum 6 guests. The capacity limits ensure a fun ride and chance to get to know fellow passengers along with the captain, or just... More

Exchanged a couple of emails with captain rob. They purchased a new schooner earlier this year and its only a 6 passenger boat. My kids are really disappointed, but ahh life goes on.

If you have kids,... More
