“The pros and cons of a more intimate snorkeling experience...”

The Erin Go Bragh is a sailboat with up to six passengers, as opposed to the large catamarans with up to 40. I've done both, and enjoyed both. I thought I would prefer the Erin Go Bragh, but I actually didn't . There wasn't much room to move around, and the "head," or bathroom was a little funky; the crew insisted that used toilet tissue be placed in a wastebasket--yuck! It was nice to get to the snorkeling location and not have it crowded, although the catamarans did arrive eventually.
One thing I did like about the larger catamaran is that they actually had snorkeling vests, which were comfortable. The large, orange vests used on Erin Go Bragh that are worn backwards are cumbersome and not made for snorkeling. My family and I also felt more comfortable with the fact that one of the crew members of the catamaran was always watching while we were snorkeling. On Erin Go Bragh, Cpt. Bill and Ingrid were preoccupied with getting lunch ready( a really good salad, but so-so barbecue consisting of dark meat chicken and not very lean pork) and weren't really keeping on eye on the snorkelers, let alone in the water with us.
So...if you really like small and privacy and intimacy, go with Erin Go Bragh. If you want a more professional approach to snorkeling, a real bathroom, and a water slide, try one of the larger outfits.

We had a great time aboard the Erin go Bragh this past weekend. Capt. Bill and Ingrid are both very warm and make you feel comfortable aboard their house boat. It was a relaxing way to spend the day. The snorkeling was great, and Ingrid's food -- YUMMY! We compared this with other snorkel tours in the area, and for just a few dollars more, you get a much more personalized experience. You will feel catered to.

We just had to book this charter after reading the reviews. It was the highlight of our trip to Puerto Rico. Captain Bill and Ingrid were truly exceptional hosts. My husband, 2 kids, and I had a wonderful time snorkeling and sailing. Captain Bill and Ingrid are such fun to talk to and both are excellent cooks. For such a small fee, we got fabulous food and many hours of excitement. You don't want to miss this experience.

Spending the day with Capt. Bill and Ingrid was definitely the highlight of our trip to Puerto Rico. We were in Puerto Rico for a meeting, and stayed a few days after the meeting was over to enjoy the sites. And we chose the perfect excursion! We had great snorkeling, great food, great drink, and the most delightful hosts who are so well informed and kept us entertained with their stories. Thank you so much Bill and Ingrid for a fantastic day!

Our day with Captain Bill and Ingrid was certainly one of the highlights of or June trip to PR and Vieques. First off, there were no hastles or problems with the booking procedure. The sailing day began with a pleasant greeting from our hosts at the dock. There were 4 other people (their maximum) booked for our trip. This was no problem at all since there is way more than enough room to move about the large (and attractive) boat. As we sailed we had the option to laze around or help Ingrid pull sails and such. There's no pressure or need for you to do anything but enjoy the ride, but if you enjoy learning or helping you can do that.
We sailed for several hours, stopped to snorkel, and before we knew it it was lunchtime. Captain Bill grilled the meat on back of the boat (cool little grill) and Ingrid did all the rest while we enjoyed the open bar. The food was very very good. Then, off we went to another reef for a bit and then set sail for the dock with the shamrock sail up the front mast. gorgeous. We would go back in a minute and found this day to be great fun and a terrific value as well. Very reasonable for a full day's activity and food/drink. Best regards, Don and Sue from Missouri
