Thanks everybody for the feedback. I feel like I need to clarify a few things... the group going has all been on sailboats multiple times. When I said we had "no experience sailing" I just meant for a full 7 day stretch. Everybody is a beginner until they're not! Our group is 4 couples so we'll know everybody on board, short of the captain.

I've spoken with most of the big charter companies on the phone (who all seem nice) who answer all my questions and are very informative. There are just so many, I didn't know if there was some aspect that made one better than the other.

I'd love the opportunity to make a connection and speak with some individual owners on here if available. For reference, we're looking to go the week of July 1.
