I booked a sailing afternoon with Captain Doug for my family of 5. The wind Gods were not happy…read morewith the hot summer, so we had to postpone the sailing until the conditions were right. Captain Doug was great at communicating about this, he understood that my 3 kids (7,6 & 4) were not going to be happy in those calm conditions because it tends to be too hot and a little boring. After a couple of reschedules, we went out on a cloudy day. We were a little concerned about rain but this man knows his weather and assured us it would be fine - maybe a couple of specks of rain, and it was exactly like that. Besides, he told us about his bimini (the big umbrella-like top that covers the whole sitting area) in his beautiful Lady Anne, a 30' Catalina boat, and exactly how to dress for the occasion. My kids were super excited, more about the innards of the boat, which he graciously let them explore, than anything. They went to see the cabins and the head (bathroom), and they were thrilled about the kitchenette. Then he let them grab the wheel, and at the same time he taught my wife and me about pulling the sails up, getting the front sail (Genoa) nice and tight, and a very awesome general 101 about sailing. We had a blast out there, realizing that Lake Lewisville is bigger than we knew. For a few hours, we forgot about everything else, we were the crew of a sailing boat that was able to harness the wind power to move pretty fast. We zig-zagged through the lake, then under a bridge where the Captain commanded the 3 little crew members to yell their lungs out (while taking some energy off, thanks!!), and then back to the marina. The whole afternoon created some memories that will be with us forever.

We wanted to reminisce about that experience. When I told Captain Dave the purpose of the trip he was as excited as if he were visiting his own beloved uncle. We discussed logistics of getting our uncle on the boat. Once we realized we could do it we booked the trip. You only have to look at the smile on my uncle's face to know this was a five-star trip.

I requested a refund in July, and was told the instructor was out of town again and would reach out when he returned. It's now September and I've heard or received nothing. This is highly unacceptable for an organization that claims it supports wounded warriors and disabled veterans. 10/2/2021 In response to the owner's response. I do appreciate taking ownership for missed communication, but expeditiously means "in a timely manner". My original request for a refund was 3 months ago, and as of today I have yet to see the refund. Once the refund is seen, I would be more than happy to return the knot rope, cert book, textbook, and the drawstring backpack they came in. Aside from that, I was offered for my family and I to attend a discovery sail at no cost. I declined due to time constraints now that summer break has ended. I will say this. I chose this school based on the reviews found on Google and Facebook which are really great, and at the recommendation of the ASA. I'm sure the captain is great and believe that other people may have had great experiences here, this is just mine. Take it for what it's worth. 4/22/22 We are now in to a year since I started this process, and this company has yet to make good on their "expeditious" refund. Nothing whatsoever.

Specifically requesting a Tri-toon. ​We showed up on the saturday we booked for and they said they had us on a ski boat. I told them no so they gave us a boat. This boat had many broken areas and was infested with ants and roaches! We found some on the dock which they provided glass cleaner to us to spray the bugs....OK. when we got out on the water and went to get the life jackets that compartment was infested with roaches. The engine was leaking gas so there was a distinct gas smell the whole time. And a fish smell. Which we chalked up to being at the lake. When we pulled back up and started unloading g our stuff we found a full trash bag in a compartment under the front seats that had fish guts in it among other trash. They did comp my gas at the end. Which was only a quarter of a tank. They clearly gave us the spare boat or something since they got the reservation wrong. We made the most of it but that is ridiculous. We were also one of the first groups there and the only group with a full day rental. Wont rent here again unless they give me a day free. Be careful. Dont accept the red boat. Yall do better. ​

It fit a lot of people and didn't feel crowded. We were allowed to bring food and drinks on the barge and blast the music as loud as we wanted. Once out far enough on the lake you can jump off the second deck or if you prefer climb down the ladder on the first and swim around. I would definitely recommend for a birthday, bachelorette party or even just to enjoy the view of Lewisville Lake. The only downfall is that there was one bathroom which got kind of hot and was pretty tiny but wasn't dirty or anything so that's a plus. The barge itself isn't anything fancy but lake appropriate in my opinion. Would like to come back and ride again soon.

I talked to Patricia on the phone several times and don't understand why all these other reviews are so rude to her- she was great to work with and I had no issues. We had 100 people, so as everyone got there the process was efficient to sign in and get everyone on the boat. We could bring our own alcohol and food, and play music as loud as we wanted. We also had some friends join us from another boat, and they were flexible about that. Everyone had an absolute blast. Everyone working on the boats was friendly and helpful, making sure we were safe but having fun. I would highly recommend booking one of their party barges, it was a great time, no hidden fees (like most other companies), and they were easier and helpful to work with. It was perfect for what we needed, and I'm so grateful they helped make our college graduation celebration such a success!
