Enjoyed our day sail, a small intimate setting, with a couple professional sailors(a wonder couple) to catch the wind with.
A perfect day gave us a opportunity to visit a great reef with more tropical fish then I've ever seen. The quarters are a bit tight, but this allows meeting some fine people with a common goal, meeting the wind and waves and enjoying some great snorkeling. Take medication if your prone to sea sickness, or if you never been on this beautiful sail boat. Half the 'crew' got alittle sea sick. The only real negative was that the food tasted a bit like charcoal lighter fluid. I barbacue everyother day in the Summer so I'm finicky about that. That's a small issue compared to a great sail we experienced though. Besides seeing a huge variety of tropical fish(which we hand fed), I saw a couple of manetees as we sailed to our first snorkeling destination. That was real special. The last time I saw manetees was in Blue Springs, Florida last year.
In summary. this was a great sail if your looking for an intimate, relaxing setting with the sea as your aquarium for the day.

I would recommend this to anyone!!!! Bill and Ingridge were gr8!!! The food was amazing, the sailboat was a blast, snorkeling was spectacular. If you have the time to do it...it's a must, we hope to be back.

Off to spend the day snorkeling with Capt Bill and Ingrid of the Erin Go Bragh III. Set the GPS (we brought from home) for Puerto del Rey and 25 minutes later we were in Fajardo and found the boat. Bill and Ingrid were pleasant , friendly and knowledgeable and were great hosts. Due to one of the guests already having been to one of the offshore islands before Capt Bill asked if we’d like to go to Vieques instead and we all agreed so off we went on a bigger adventure than we expected or paid for – all because the Capt wanted to be accommodating to his guests. Due to the Christmas winds, we made a quick passage to Vieques. Capt Bill easily turned over control of the wheel to whomever wanted it and gave us a chance to feel the power of a 50’ ketch under sail in 20-30 knot winds – quite an experience. We then snorkeled for several hours, had a great lunch (chicken and ribs) barbequed on the boat along with salads and bread, thirst quenched by all you can drink sodas, fruit juices with or without rum. Then headed back for a late afternoon sail back to the mainland, more drinks and fresh fruit were served before reaching the dock at about 6pm. All in all a great day. Snorkeling off Vieques was quite good we encountered stingrays, puffer fish, trunk fish, squid, blue tangs, red snapper, blue runners, and starfish to name a few. The western tip of Vieques where we stopped had a particularly good grouping of soft corals with many colors of sea fans, etc. All in all a great trip well worth the $89 tab.

The Erin Go Bragh trip with Captain Bill and Ingrid is easily one of the best experiences one could get in Puerto Rico. They have lots of experience in the Waters and have done thousands of snorkelling trips. This was really assuring for a non-swimmer like me. They made sure that my wife and I are comfortable. They take a maximum of only 8 people including them, so there is a lot of one to one time and snorkelling opportunities. To top it all they cooked a wonderful lunch in the boat. I would highly recommend Erin Go Bragh Charters to anyone wanting to go on a Sailing and Snorkelling trip in Puerto Rico.
