On our last trip we had a sister boat with a Moorings Captain while I had the bareboat. Not only did he not ask preferences of them but tried to steer the other boat to ports where he had girlfriends and/or parties. After about 2 days of this they told the captain to follow our prearranged schedule and mirror us. I believe a good skipper as Louis suggests will ask for your preferences and take you where you want to go but have a prearranged idea....seeing Spanish Town shouldn't be on your list...:) I was also not happy that he left the other boat and took the dinghy for hours at a time... He was exception as opposed to rule in my experience but I think knowing what you want to see helps. I would strongly encourage you to avoid the Interline Regatta agenda https://www.moorings.com/sites/defa...2019-interline-regatta-itinerary-web.jpg
