We have done both the Tango and Lambada, basically identical boats but we always preferred the crew on The Tango. We have done back to back on both also to make for basically a full day on the water. These boats are usually packed to capacity, maybe 60-75 people. No 1 SXM is a great option if you want to be out all day and with a small group. The owners do a great job and the food/snacks are a nice option.

I am not sure what the "official" Heineken cruise is. I see it goes out of Bobby's Marina where the other boats go out of Simpson Bay, which is much more convenient for you.

We have been out with basically no wind and little racing and too much wind with rough seas, broken sails and some sick people.

Personally, I would go with No. 1 SXM as I like the boat and people and my second choice would be getting on The Tango.

Good luck!
