Great service and customer support

Clean tidy boat. Nice skipper and chef. Good food & wine. Nice sailing and places to stop to swim and relax.

Quality and comfort of the boat. The Moorings held the prices and were excellent throughout the Covid and booking process.

We booked our catamaran and captain through The Moorings in Tortola.
Our captain was excellent, his supporting staff, reception, boat repair and provisioning, not so great. The captain that was assigned to our boat was a No Show. Luckily his last minute replacement was exceptional! The woman at the front desk (with the large red glasses) really shouldn’t be in a customer service role. Not helpful and not friendly. As a result we left a day later without a functional water maker or grill. Once away from the dock, we enjoyed our boat, our captain and the beautiful Islands. If you bring children, be sure they are swimmers, they will love it.

The trip was a 8 day catamaran sail around BVI.

The best part of the trip was the marvelous Captain Matthieu Martinez. He took such good care of us, so kind, helpful and knowledgable. He is a great asset as a Captain.

The boat is very comfortable, spacious and well appointed. Beds seem smaller than advertised, but still substantial for a boat. I had a forward, smaller cabin.

The cabins in the bow end of the boat are quite noisy when the air conditioner, generator &/or water maker are running. I would recommend bringing noise canceling air pods.

Romano and Silvia far exceeded any expectations I had for the charter. The boat was clean, in great condition, and guidelines for safety were clear. Romano communicated effectively and was knowledgeable about weather, sea conditions, and what stops to prioritize. Silvia’s cooking was top notch. She was thoughtful in her planning; making sure to accommodate our group preferences. Not only were the meals timely and wonderful, the presentation was beautiful. I would recommend The Mooring over and over, with ultimate praise to Romano and Silvia.

Our crewed sailing charter with the Moorings in the BVIs was everything we had dreamed of. Captain Lucy Rees and chef/first mate Mark made it the perfect vacation. The crew were expert sailors, very knowledgeable about the locations and made everything enjoyable and effortless for us. I give this pair my utmost recommendation.

We had a 5 day cruise in the BVI with the Moorings, and it was just the absolute best! Our captain George and chef Coops were both amazing! Both of them really went above and beyond to make sure we had an excellent time. Coops’ food was delicious and honestly better than I would have even expected, and George did an admirable job navigating what were somewhat rough seas during a storm. The boat was kept in clean and sharp condition the entire time. I certainly couldn’t recommend them enough!

Briteny and her team made our family vacation incredible. Great customer service for anything we needed. Would charter with them again for sure

Just completed five nights with George and Coops on the Funky Miracle. George captained the boat amazingly through good weather and bad. He worked hard to ensure everyone had a fulfilling and safe time. His sense of adventure matched our own. At sunset, his creativity was in full form as he would create a specialty drink each evening to add to the fun. He honored our every whim! (Ask George about the kneeboard) Coops prepared meals for us and helped George in every way. Coops went above and beyond and our meals were delicious. The presentation made us feel like we were in a big city restaurant! Everything we specifically requested was taken care of. The sunset charcuterie became a favorite and her professionalism and empathy endeared her to us. Coops was awesome, knew the boat inside and out and was a true professional. What a wonderful crew!!! Can’t imagine the trip without them.

We had an excellent trip with four couples on our crewed BVI charter with The Moorings Company. Our Captain, Francesco was an experienced sailor and made us feel very safe. He choose wonderful places to share with us thru the BVI and had great recommendations for restaurants and special spots along the way. Our Chef, Nika was an excellent cook and made unbelievably delicious meals for us. She was extremely accommodating to special diets as well. Our crew was friendly and made our experience a fun, safe adventure.

Seas the Day with captain Andy and Chef Linzi is a fantastic way to take a first class vacation. The boat and the crew were first rate. Highly recommend.

Everything exceeded our expectations! Captain Andy and Chef Linzi made everything a trip of a lifetime! Captain Andy included us in making the itinerary that were exactly what we were looking for! Chef Linzi was an absolutely accomplished chef that kept us looking forward to every meal! They are quite a team and we were lucky to have them show us around the beautiful British Virgin Islands!!

Eight of us guests on the boat, ranging from experienced to first time (and fearful) cruisers). We all had a fabulous time and wouldn’t hesitate to go again. The snorkeling was unbelievable. The views were incredible. Captain Andy is knowledgeable, attentive, and flexible in order to meet the needs and wants of his guests. Chef Linzi’s cooking was outstanding, delicious, and healthy. Captain Andy mans the grill. We all agreed that we would rather eat on board than go anywhere else to eat. They gave us an experience we will never forget. Much thanks to Captain Andy and Chef Linzi.

What a fantastic vacation. So relaxing sailing from island to island. Captain Andy took us to Amazing snorkeling spots and Chef Linz’s meals and evening Nibbles along with the Captains cocktail were amazing g

Great trip to share with friends and family. Captain Andy is very personable and made sure to make it the trip we wanted. He kept us up to date and always included us in the itinerary decision making!
Linzi is not only a kind person but also a phenomenal chef! We ate VERY well and she made it another highlight of our trip.
They spoiled us in every way in a beautiful, relaxing location and we very much appreciated it all!!

We had a fantastic 10 sojourn through the BVI. The boat was wonderful and the crew even more so. Captain Cosy was very capable and friendly. Jan, our chef, prepared us some amazing meals in an incredibly small space. Loved every minute.

Moorings – A World Class Operation run by people who are skilled & knowledgeable and understand 1st class service!

Captain Andy & Chef Linzi were an incredible duo who provided my family and me with truly superb service. They are both so personable and delivered a genuine 5-star experience from start to finish.

Captain Andy crafted the perfect itinerary for our group and was extremely accommodating throughout the entire trip. Chef Linzi not only prepared the most amazing meals—so good that many days we didn’t even want to leave the boat—but also kept everything impeccably clean and organized. Managing a group of 10 on a boat that size is no small feat, and she handled it effortlessly.

Together, they created such a relaxing, fun, and seamless experience for our family. Having done a similar trip in the past without a captain and chef, I can confidently say I would never go back to doing it any other way.

As Captain Andy said on day one, he hoped the week would feel like 2–3 weeks—and somehow, it really did. Every aspect of this charter was a 10/10: Andy’s sailing expertise and knowledge, Linzi’s incredible food (especially her cocktail hour nibbles—an 11/10!), the cleanliness of the boat, and the overall atmosphere and vibe.

We have a strong feeling our group will absolutely be back to sail again with Captain Andy & Chef Linzi.

The boat was prepped and ready. All of our pre requested food items were already on board. The boat was comfortable for the 8 of us. No problems with the boat. The staff at The Moorings who helped us with the boat were great.
The front seat staff at check in were not so helpful. Young women at counter acted like she didn’ watt to be boteredered with customers. Otherwise all was good

Captain Andy and Chef Linzi were absolutely incredible—they made every day in the BVIs feel truly special.

Linzi’s cooking was a standout from start to finish—everything from perfectly done surf and turf to casual favorites like pulled pork sandwiches was unbelievable. Every meal felt thoughtful and elevated, and we were always excited to see what she’d create next. She never missed.

Andy’s expertise is on another level. From knowing the best spots and getting ahead of the crowds by securing top moorings early in the morning, to understanding the waters and safety in ways others simply don’t—it made the entire trip feel seamless and stress-free. You could tell we were always in the best hands while still having an amazing, fun sailing experience.

I’d 100% recommend them and would absolutely come back just because of this amazing duo. Easily one of the best vacations we’ve ever had.

Cannot say enough good things about Captain Andy and Chef Linzi. What a husband-wife team that make the trip unforgettable. Both are easy to get along with and very professional. They made us feel at ease and safe throughout the entire journey. Their intimate knowledge of the area and their recommendations for ‘go-to destinations’ were always spot-on. Loved the way Andy shared nautical tidbits throughout the trip and Linzi’s food was amazing.

We traveled with my cousin and his family and it is common for each of us to call one another ‘cousin’. Mid-way through the trip, we were addressing Andy and Linzi as ‘Cousin Andy’ and ‘Cousin Linzi’ as our comfort level was so high with them both. Hopeful they will take us up on our offer to come visit us in Cape May, NJ.

We’ve bareboat chartered in the BVI many time over many years, starting in the late 1990’s. This time I decided to let someone else be responsible and do all the work, so we chartered a 58′ cat with a captain and a chef. IT WAS HANDS DOWN THE BEST EXPERIENCE OF OUR LIVES! Our captain, Cosy, was exceptionally nice, helpful, attentive and made our requested itinerary work out great. Jan, our chef, made every meal a gourmet experience, tailored to our preferences and beautifully presented. We were blessed with perfect weather and the 10 day blew by. We can’t wait to do this again. GO! You won’t regret it one bit.
