| Review: | Highly Recommended Everything about the class exceded my expectations! Captain Francis is not only an excellent sailor, but also a great teacher. I learned a great deal more than I expected and both my wife and I have gained greater confidence in our sailing abilities. Plus, we had loads of fun! I give the boat a score of 9/10 because one of the throttle cables broke on the second to last day. Nothing that could have been anticipated. However, that gave us the additional opportunity to learn how to maneuver a cat with only one engine! I think the little quirks that popped up like that helped us deal with real-world problems we could expect if we were on our own. Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | Virgin Islands Bareboat School Had a great time and learned quite a bit. Capt Francis appeared very knowlegable and is a very good instructor. However, the boat needed a few minor repairs. Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | Action fun and education This is one of the best ways to spent a vacation. Having action during a stormy night sailing. Meeting very nice crew/classmates and excelent teachers. Teaching was done according to everybodies needs. We learned a lot and still had plenty of fun. I would like to do this again. Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | Great Sailing Zero to Hero was a great course - well paced, nice mix of classroom and practical lessons and and steady building of knowledge, skills and confidence. I loved it!! Good location, accommodation,crewmates, food , weather , and best of all, extremely experienced skippers who know how to effectively pass on their knowledge to rank beginners. Chris and Matt are teachers extraordinaire! Overall, a truly affirming life experience. Comments [ 1 ] |

| Review: | Great Time in the USVI with Fairwinds My girl friend and I had a great week learning to sail with Fairwinds. I had never sailed before so this was a totally new experience. I learned a lot from Captain Francis, he was willing to answer any questions and took his time to ensure we learned the skills to propeorly handle the boat. I was so pleased with the class that I going back to take the advance sailing course with them. Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | OUTSTANDING Although a little expensive at first.....during the course, and afterwards, I realized how much it was worth it. The Instructors were outstanding, the boats were superb and the on-shore accomodations were very nice. I have been talking it up to co-workers and friends, and would highly recommend this Gulf Charters course, to anyone! Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | mixing pleasure with business.. Did the zerow to hero course with Iron Iwan here below. The course was dense, comprehensive, and enjoyable. The instructors were all quite experienced sailors with 100s of thousands of global hours logged between them, course material was great, facilities were good, we felt well taken care of by the gulf charter team. New friendships were forged, all in all it was a serious but at the same time very enjoyable experience that I could recomnend to anyone. Comments [ 0 ] |
