Sailing with the Wind - Amazing experience - just a couple of days ago we went on a 3-hour cruise, under the sail, there is nothing more serene than being in the ocean with just a wind, quiet gliding through the ocean with beautiful views of Miami and legendary Stitsville - a forgotten city in the middle of the ocean. Captain Rod is experienced, warm, inclusive, interesting, and engaged, feels he fits into any company well. We are going to make many of these trips with Captain Rod and highly recommend his services!

Sailing, It's an Experience! - For our 25th wedding anniversary, we wanted something special, and our two-day sailing adventure with Rodrigo was the perfect choice. My wife and I both had experience sailing on lakes, but ocean sailing was a whole new level for us, and it exceeded our expectations. Rodrigo was a fantastic host—easy to talk to and constantly engaging. By the end of the first four hours, it felt more like he was a friend. He encouraged us to be as involved in the sailing as we wanted, whether it was steering the boat or handling the ropes. For those who have never sailed, you might be surprised by how sailing can be both exhilarating and relaxing simultaneously. And let's not forget the meals! Rodrigo is an excellent cook, and dining on the ocean was a unique experience. Dinner was especially nice, watching the sunset and Rodrigo grilling steaks at the back of the boat. All of the meals were unforgettable moments. Whether you're an experienced sailor or a newbie, I believe you will thoroughly enjoy sailing, especially with Rodrigo as your host.

Perfect Sunset/Proposal Sailing - I was proposing to my girlfriend, and Rodrigo was absolutely awesome and made sure everything was perfect. He helped me pick the perfect time, took pictures, and helped me plan. As well as, his communication was perfect on how, when, and what we would do. Took all of the stress off of me. And if you get the opportunity to his food was delicious. This was an amazing and relaxing experience, and was the best one I could’ve chosen. The sailing was perfect, and he even gave an awesome little history lesson on the area which I loved as well!

Couldn’t ask for a better boat or captains - Steve and Rodrigo were great captains, great with the kids, and made the sailing an amazing adventure. The skirt steak was amazing and changed our view on skirt steak! If we go back to Miami we would definitely look to charter with them again. The boat was great and they are willing to cater the trip to your liking. Highly recommend, especially with kids.

Sunset sail on the Bay - We had a terrific time with Captain Steve. He sailed us around the bay and took us to see Stiltsville, the Lighthouse and gave us some history lessons as well. We all enjoyed the beautiful sights and amazing sunset.

Overnight Sailing Adventure - What a Blast! - We had a blast sailing with Captain Rodrigo and Chez on a 3 night, 4 day sailing adventure from Miami to Key Largo and back. The trip exceeded our expectations. Several surprises - the delicious taste and variety of each meal, the flexibility in our plan to snorkel where we wanted, the pictures they provided following the trip, the firework show we were able to see on New Years, and the overall attentiveness to our needs from blankets, to chairs while on the bow etc. The snorkeling was better than any I have experienced in the Caribbean. The boat was comfortable for 4 people. They welcomed our participation in sailing as much or as little as we wanted to and they were eager to share their sailing stories and knowledge. I really appreciated Rodrigo's approach to planning the trip with meetings in advance and sharing our route for feedback. Will be back again!

Sailing the Best of Biscayne - 10 stars if i could! From booking to the end of the trip, Rodrigo was absolutely fantastic! Communication was top notch, the boat was fantastic. Lots of room onboard! The cabin underneath has a great kitchen and galley area for meal prepping. Rodrigo really took the time to figure out what kind of adventure we wanted. Did we want more of a laid-back environment or really go sailing. This is booked for my husband’s 42nd birthday my husbands very much and detailing and Rodrigo made his day! My husband was smiling ear to ear. Is Rodrigo allowed him to help sailing the boat and really talk my husband the ins and outs of sailing . We brought on board a couple of snacks as our first charter we did not really know what to expect a Rodrigo does offer amazing food that we will be taking advantage of next time when we book! Rodrigo really knows the area, lots of history of the area, and it was an absolute gem to be around!he even got some amazing photos of us and emailed them! I really cannot wait to book our next trip with Rodrigo. We did it for our excursion this time, but definitely would do longer. The experience was so much fun that the time flew by! Thank you Rodrigo and steve for an amazing experience and looking forward to seeing you guys again very soon.
