I really enjoyed my sailing experience with Doug Matchett and Troy Stilwell. They were attentive, professional and friendly. Would definitely sail with them again, looking forward to the next trip!!

Captain Troy, Thank you for our amazing sailing trip in Italy. He’s experienced sailor and I was with Captain Troy on my sailing trip in France back in 2019. Now, it was my second time with him sailing in Italy. When we arrived in the port of Torre Annunziata from Pozzuoli, Captain Troy contacted taxi cabs to drive us to Pompeii. It was amazing experience to explore in Pompeii with Deaf group, guide and interpreter. In Pompeii, it was fantastic to see a lot of the ancient streets and city ruins from 2,000 years ago including ancient breads, snack bars, villas, temples, and paintings. WOW.

After touring in Pompeii, we sailed to Sorrento, Positano, Capri, Porto d’ Ischia and Procida. Those places are so fantastic places to visit.

Thank you, First mate Brian Mehan and Second mate Kam Lo. They worked hard to satisfy our needs by cooking and serving for us. Brian is an hilarious guy and he made us laughing. We enjoyed every minute with him.

Overall, my favourite is Capri (too bad we didn’t go Blue Grotto Anchor due rough water) and Positano…very beautiful view. I love Sorbetto, and oh my god Gelato Hazelnut, Pistachio and Chocolate, Taste is so goooood!! If you are not allergy to nut, try it and drink Limoncello!! Big adventures!

Definitely I will go back with them on our next sailing trip!

Had a great time. Free to roam on each island and land without time limit is a plus. My 2nd time with captain and 1st mate were awesome people and I would go again with them.

We really enjoyed our journey with Troy and the crews. It is so much fun to hop from town to town. It was worth it.

The Amalfi Coast sailing trip was one of the best I have ever had (my third)! The views of villages clinging on the mountainsides were gorgeous. Captain Stilwell and the crew were great. One area that need to be improved was the dinners prepared and served on the boat (we dined out a few times and their cuisine was awesome).

What a lifetime experience for my husband & I had In Italy!!! Troy, Brian & Kam did an amazing job taking care of us. We were their first group and it was their first time sailing in Italy as well. It was a learning experience for us all. I felt very comfortable with Troy bec he knew the other captains that I sailed with at Cape Cod. This is my 2nd time sailing but first time for my husband. We both are planning for more sailing trips in the future. Italy is definitely on our list to return back. So much to see!!!! We had a blast with everyone on the sailboat. We love our group! It was our first time meeting them all. We hope to bump into them again in the future!!!

It was my first experience to ride and sleep on a sailboat in Italy for 7 nights. I highly recommend traveling on it along with Deaf captain and crews

The sailing trip in BVI was great! We were hooked with the gorgeous view of the islands, water, and the weather was just perfect! The whole experience was well deserved for us to be away from the everyday life just to unwind and enjoy the beauty of being on the water. We did get a chance to go scuba diving at Copper Island with Troy and it was great! There’s no comparison of this trip with others so its recommended to go sailing in all different places. Thanks to Troy Stilwell and Tom Peets, co-captains for their great service.

We immensely enjoyed our sailing trip to the BVI. Captains Troy and Tom put together a thoroughly enjoyable itinerary with beautiful locations and fun activities.
The boat was very comfortable and had plenty of room for socializing or just finding a peaceful place to relax.
There was plenty of food and the meals were great.
We felt safe knowing that the captains had decades of experience between them and we are looking forward to our next trip with them.

I am Deaf and I absolutely love sailing. Recently, we joined Deaf Sailing in the beautiful crystal clear blue waters of the British Virgin Islands. The catamaran we were on was just simply beautiful. The weather was just perfect, sunny with temps in the 80’s! Our cabins were very comfortable. Our Deaf captain, Troy Stilwell and also Deaf first mate, Tom Peets did a phenomenal job planning ahead and making our sailing trip enjoyable. Troy was also our amazing chef! Troy is very knowledgeable about the BVI region and shared his passion for adventure with his sailors. Tom just fell in love with BVI. I had so much fun and I’m going back there to sail with them next year! Please join us! You will thank me later.
