Andrew. Our Captain was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!

Exit Strategy was in good shape and ready with provisions on board. Even though we have used the Moorings before the new information packages were excellent. Staff was very helpful. Planning another trip for next year.

Well maintained boat. Very good customer service.

This review must start with Captain Andy & his amazing wife, Chef Linzi who were not only unbelievable welcoming, fun, and interesting to be around, but also incredibly organized and flexible over the course of the week we spent with them.

Our party of eight sailed the BVI’s for the first time and the two of them made it one of the most memorable trips we’ve ever taken. From the customized itinerary to the onboard fine dining (breakfast, lunch & dinner); each day was filled with something new to see, explore, and of course eat.

I’ll add that The Moorings, as an outfit for chartering these amazing vessels was also equally great to work with and made organizing our special trip very easy.

As a group, we all agreed that we’d sail again with Captain Andy & Chef Linzi in a heartbeat and would highly recommend them if you are considering a charter with crew. We’d like to personally thank them again for an amazing experience.

Shelly and Richard made every moment of our trip magical! Our boat was spotless, the food incredible, and their company was so lovely.
Reservations, locations, and itinerary were planned and executed easily thanks to them!
Thank you for the incredible adventure aboard the Knotty Toddy. Shelly and Richard provided a vacation filled with pure joy and memories of a lifetime.

As the year comes to an end we reflect on our most wonderful celebration trip with Moorings in November. We spent a week sailing around the BVIs on a luxurious catamaran superbly crewed by Sophie and Robin. Nothing but high praise and thanks from us for their friendly but professional care. Delicious inventive meals were provided by Sophie. She also magically kept our berths spotless when we weren’t looking. Robin steered us around the various islands and bays making the most of the amazing swimming and snorkelling in the area. We felt totally relaxed, helped from time to time by the fabulous cocktails that Robin conjured up. We’d done a similar trip for our 50ths – the 20 year gap was worth waiting for and we would highly recommend.

Trip on the water was great. The weather tried to hinder us, but we prevailed.wasn’t hard with this great boat. He been on a rainy day the inside was a great place to Stowe out.

Thanks for the fantastic charter on Seas the Day with crew Andy & Linzi. Lifelong memories of seas, sun, snorkeling and even a little nautical learning. Appreciate the thought put into our itinerary and the menu throughout the trip. Looking forward to future trips!

There were three couples that we vacation with often on this charter. We were blessed with having Richard and Shelly as our crew. We all have been on many different trips but this was very special because of Richard and Shelly. We all enjoyed that they would interact with us and we all enjoyed our conversations. I know that we all would charter with them again. The only downside was I gained 7 pounds from the fantastic meals we were served. Planning our next charter. Thank you Richard and Shelly.

We had a fabulous trip in no small part due to our captain, Anis, and our fantastic chef, Teri. Anis was appropriately safety cautious while also encouraging fun and adventure. He planned our stops well and handled the boat masterfully. Teri is so sweet and accommodating- we all wanted to bring her home with us. Her meals were delicious- we have all tried to replicate them upon returning home. It was a great trip.

Lovely crew (Richard and Shelly), fantastic food and drinks, They were super knowledgeable with great recs for places to go for snorkeling, relaxing, beaching/bars, exploring, and hiking. Our early 20s kids say it’s their best trip ever and want to go again which is the highest praise! Such thoughtful special touches went into our table settings, a birthday celebration, and food which was amazing! HIGHLY recommend the Moorings and specifically Richard and Shelly to anyone wanting a pampered, customized vacation!! Thank you!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our trip was amazing!Anis and Tery were the very best we could’ve asked for! They cooked amazing food, took us everywhere we wanted to go and kept us safe the whole time. We had such a great time with them! We look forward when we can travel with them again we highly recommend them for any plans. You have to travel in the future.

Nicest charter base I’ve ever been to. Lovely facilities while waiting to board and upon return of boat. Pool, showers, bar, restaurant, shops, etc. Most importantly, the boat was in great condidtion and the staff was very friendly – providing much assistance with loading and unloading luggage and thorough check-out process.

There were only three of us on a 46′ Power Cat, so we had crazy amount of space and room, but we could have had 3-5 more people on the trip and probably felt the same way. The boat was super clean and full of toys to really enjoy the trip above and below the water. The boat’s autopilot was easy to use and off autopilot, it was easy to maneuver (with the help of experienced deck hands!). We enjoyed cooking and eating in various spots around the boat and the lounging areas were well-designed to soak in the sights. Launching and retrieving the dinghy was a synch. We never worried that the dinghy wouldn’t start or anything.

The trip was amazing. Our crew Shelly and Richard made the trip. Shelly made every meal a delight. We sometimes couldn’t choose our favorite because they were all so good. Richard gave us the best sailing experience ever!.

Moorings have a big base in Road Town with some great facilities. Check in and check out very efficient and when we had an issue that needed attention the service was pretty prompt and resolved the issue efficiently. The BVI is a lovely area to sail in.

This was a genuine vacation – getaway – for our adult family. We had ideas, but Anis put together a daily plan that made every moment absolutely pleasurable. We had just the right amount of time on sail, playing in the ocean among sea life, and on land exploring spots perfectly tailored to our interests. Tery, his lovely crew mate, made every meal a feast for us – again, tailored to our tastes. The food was superb and the presentation was always remarkable. BTW – go with Anis’ suggestions for cocktails. OMG! Thank you for those nightly concoctions. We look forward to our return and new adventures with Tery and Anis in BVI. Cheers!!!

Everything about Moorings is first class.
The boat was very clean and maintained.
The captain was great.
The chef made us great meals and was very accommodating to dietary needs.
Our family had a great vacation.

For my husband’s 50th birthday I chartered a 46 foot power cat. Our trip started with an overnight stay at the Moorings hotel which made everything super convenient. The following morning, we met our captain/skipper Rico. Rico was instrumental in us having a phenomenal trip. He was pleasant, comical, respectful and an absolute pleasure to be around. He assisted us with our itinerary and watched the weather and water conditions to make sure we had the best experience. He helped us with snorkeling spots and educated us on the vessel.
The entire trip was beyond amazing and a fabulous way to celebrate a milestone birthday. A trip of this magnitude is hard to put into words but we can not wait to return and will absolutely be requesting Rico for our next adventures.

The overall experience with the Moorings was fantastic. Our whole family loved the trip from the boat, scenery, food and especially the crew of Wayne and Katy. They were top notch in every aspect from sailing experience to culinary skills. The views both above water and the fish below were exceptional. We hope to go back again and enjoy it all over again.

We had the BEST time with Captain Andy & his wife, Chef Linzi. I joined my BF and his family for a celebration of life (being alive) for their father. We are so thankful for him and to have been able to make this beautiful trip. Captain Andy gave us Chart Lessons each morning after Chef Linzi wow’ed us with her amazing cooking skills. Breakfasts, lunches, and dinners were outstanding! Chef Linzi’s Nibbles were amazing and they included top notch beverages prepared by Captain Andy!! They were both so accommodating and shared their stories with us like they were a part of our family. It was a natural, fun vibe on the boat. Thank you, Captain Andy & Chef Linzi for an unforgettable trip to the BVI on Seize the Day!! 12/10 recommend this crew!

Captain Andy and Chef Linzi made this the best trip of my life…and it’s not even close.

Our travel group consisted of different ages, tastes, and preferences. After a fantastic week at sea, we all returned home with an experience that felt like it was tailored specifically to each of us.

Andy and Linzi have been in BVI for many years, and it shows. Whether it was a lively, bustling bay with many other sailors (as some of the group preferred) or a quiet cove to watch a sunset in silence (as others leaned towards), Andy knew the exact spots that our group would enjoy. He took us to all of them safely and with everything that we needed for a good time.

And the food…WOW. Chef Linzi kept everyone amazed from sunrise to sunset. I can’t recommend her enough.

The two of them are a perfect match to create a dream vacation.

I will 100% be back for another charter and will be recommending The Moorings – and specifically this captain/chef duo – to friends and family in the meantime.

Cannot say enough good things about Captain Josh and First Mate/chef extraordinaire Rebekah! We went with two other couples on this amazing trip of a lifetime. Every detail was thought of from the check-in at the Moorings to having desired provisions on the boat to the daily itinerary. Seriously worth every cent and so grateful for the opportunity to sail leisurely through the beautiful BVIs. Thank you, Josh and Rebekah for taking such good care of us!
