Had a fantastic day with Captain Charlie and Nikka. I mentioned we were celebrating a birthday and the boat was decorated when we arrived. Both were patient and accommodating with my mother, helping her into the boat and out of the water. The restaurant they recommended for lunch was excellent. We loved sailing and swimming. Best birthday ever?
