Anyone sail the Winifred?

[og719]

I've noticed a couple of mentions on this board, but would love to hear opinions on this day trip. Any problems with timing, as far as getting back to the ship on time? Sounds like a good excursion. Thanks!

Just sailed her on the 13th.

We met Capt Sharon at 9:30 between B and C docks in Redhook. She had us back at 3:30, in time for some shooping. Our ship left at 6pm.

Hi,

We sailed on the Winifred in March. Had absolutley no problems with times and getting back to the ship. We totally enjoyed ourselves and would recommend it.

We sailed on 'Winifred' a few years ago and had no problems with the timing issue. All of the 'private' excursions people are VERY aware about the time you need to be back, taxi situations, etc. If they messed up by having someone not make it back to the ship on time, then they wouldn't ever have any recommendations or repeat business for their excursions. Bad word travels MUCH faster than good!

 

I too would highly recommend using Capt. Sharon while in St. Thomas -- off the beaten track, very relaxing, and away from hordes of people. We enjoyed it very much.
