Reviews

Guest Comments for Captain Sam
Sam is a total legend. He was competent, welcoming, patient, and most importantly, for us, he knew where and how to have a good time.
We made a real friend this week, and wonderful skipper. He’s very personable and went above and beyond for everyone and the crew.

Sam is a smooth operator who is calm cool and collective at all times. He brings a vibe that is easy to match and a contagious smile that eases our worries. I would recommend a sailing experience with Sam to anyone who has a true longing and passion for the sea.

Sam was an absolute legend! He went above and beyond with anything we ever asked. He booked everything, made sure everything ran smoothly, and we had so much fun with him. I love him to be my skipper again!

Captain Sam was very helpful and accommodating. He made sure we all are having fun while keeping us safe.

Sam was amazing! I was trying to make our yacht week experience better, getting off the best places to swim and creating a great atmosphere the absolute best, great job!

Sam, the man. Zero complaints, very professional, his mind on the job. Could be my skipper any day.

Best person ever, very helpful and easy to get along with. He made our trip runs smoothly. It wouldn’t have been the same without him!

Sam was absolutely incredible. We always felt at all times. He was an expert and safe seller. He helped out with everything around the boat and worked hard to make sure we had a great time when we went to all of our destinations. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Sam was absolutely amazing! Every minute of the day he was there to help us with anything we needed! Our air conditioning was broken. He fixed it and we broke three esky’s for our drinks and he got us new ones! He went above and beyond the call of action.

Sam was incredible. He was a great balance of being a really good skipper but also making sure we had a great time. He made us feel so comfortable and looked after us while we were out. He took us to so many incredible places and always had a smile on his face. He felt like part of our family, and we will miss him!

"Rolf was an absolute GEM. He fit in so well with our group and provided us with a lot of laughs (and great looks)! He was very experienced at sailing so we all felt very safe and he was even able to handle an extremely dramatic girl with sea sickness. The week wouldn't have been the same without him and we'll be personally requesting him for our next trip!"
2024
"Our skipper was great, super helpful and friendly. Professional and experienced beyond his years! Felt incredibly safe the entire time and had some great conversations.
10/10 couldn’t fault him!"
2024
"Rolf was capable, kind, fun and made sure that we were all safe. His safety briefing was excellent and his skills while driving and anchoring the boat were amazing. He provided good recommendations about things to do on shore and felt like a dear friend by the end of the week."
