Great day with Captain Dan! I would recommend it to anyone. Our family had a fantastic time

We had an amazing excursion with BoatingVI! From the marina breakfast recommendation before we boarded to the finale toast when we got back, every minute was bliss. Capt. Dan is a living encyclopedia of the islands and has been in the business long enough to have personal stories of some of the most interesting characters to have ever called the islands home. The boat was smooth and comfortable, even in choppy water… so much so that I (a typically sea sick person) had a little nap on the way back. We went to Virgin Gorda, where we wandered The Baths and took in one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. Lunch was clean-the-plate delicious at Pirates Bight on Norman Island. And then we did some of the most pristine reef snorkeling you can find in the Caribbean. Fish galore, a 40’ wall of coral, then a swimming tour through oceanic gardens. Really an A+, perfect day on the water. We’ll never forget it! If you’re taking a water trip, do it with these guys. You won’t regret it. Thanks Capt. Dan!!

I had a very specific itinerary from St. Thomas to Jost Van Dyke, BVI. They nailed it! The boat was awesome. The captain was excellent. They made arrangements to expedite customs, which went flawlessly. It really was a perfect day. I highly recommend.

My family and I booked a half day trip and had an amazing time! We enjoyed it so much we booked a full day trip the following day and then another half day. We had Captain Dan and Captain Brian on our trips. We can not say enough good things about both of them and about the trips they took us on. We were able to see wonderful beaches and the boat trips were the favorite part of our vacation to St. Thomas. We will absolutely book with them again when we come back. Thank you Captains Dan and Brian! -Mike, Michelle, Vinny, and Grace.

Captain Dan is my go to boat captain in the Virgin Islands. He is very kind and he has great knowledge of the surrounding areas. I highly recommend him for your next excursion.

BoatTing VI's 40' Intrepid is an excellent boat for 2-6 people. It sported 3 400 hp outboards and could move us quickly but smoothly from spot to spot. Captain Dan guided us around St John, stopping at various snorkeling spots, filled with parrot fish, angelfish, blue and black tangs, filefish, trunk fish, ballyhoo, a moray eel, nurse shark, a turtle, and so on. His knowledge of the history of the history of the island we found to be unparalleled. We ate lunches at Lovango and the boat Pizza Pi in Christmas Cove. We will continue to charter with BoatTing every time we get on island. In fact, our daughter has already booked them for 2 days when she and her family arrive in 2 months.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, ValueWhat a great experience today with Capt. Colin! We had such a great time. Thank you so much. Highly highly recommend!!

Positive: QualityThe boat was impressive and Capitan Colin showed us all a great time. Will use them again, and would recommend them to anyone.

MOST INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE ON ST THOMAS!! Took a day trip with Capt. Colin on the 40' vessel and had the most amazing time. From the minute we met up at the front office to saying goodbye, the service was top notch. I am struggling to find words to describe how great of a time we had. Colin provided the most incredible service, a great time, tons of awesome local information and knowledge of the islands. Made several stops around St. John to snorkel in all the best spots. Music was on point, the vessel was beautiful, luxurious, and this trip made memories that I will remeber for the rest of my life. 11/10 recommend, I cannot say a single bad thing because this was just perfect from beginning to end. If you come to St. Thomas, this experience is a must for your itinerary. Can't wait to come back and do it again!
