Thank you for another successful and delightful Horizon Yacht charter and Horizon ASA school experience. From start to finish, our interaction with you was professional, friendly, courteous, efficient, and fun. We are so glad we returned to Horizon for 2024 and look forward to continuing to do so.
Please extend our appreciation and gratitude to ALL staff, on the water and behind the desks, who contributed to our wonderful experience.
If only we would visit you more often (SMILE!).
If anyone is passing through New York City during the 2024 sailing season, please let us know, so we can hope to get you on the water and return the hospitality.

Captain Dom is the greatest! As is all the staff at Horizon. We had to alter our dates last minute due to a death in the family and everyone was very sympathetic and accommodating. Even prior to that incident, the whole Horizon family made our trip a breeze (no pun intended) and ensured that we had everything we needed as first-timers. Highly recommend this company.

Dear Horizon, Courtney, Sandra, Henry, and Jalon,
We can’t thank you enough for all you have done over the years to make this dream trip possible for us. Stan and I have been sailing the BVI since our honeymoon in 1986 and sailing with Horizon since 2000. Through the years we have sailed with our own children and this year also sailed with 3 generations to include our 3 and 4 year old granddaughters for a perfect week. We can always count on everyone at Horizon to take great care of us and we are so very grateful for this week where our lives came full circle and we were able to share this beautiful place with the 3rd generation of our family.

Cara was fantastic as were all of the staff at Nanny Cay – we had a fantastic time, sailing the islands and at your home base. I forget the name of the mechanic who came over to fix the generator while we were on the hook at Foxy’s but he was quick and efficient and left everything just as he found it after completing the work. I love the pride everyone there has in their service and will be recommending Horizon to everyone at the Grapevine Sailing Club – Thank you very much!

The greatest holiday of our lives. Everything was perfect from Horizon Yacht Charters, from the info during reservation and the build-up to the trip, to the whole support and sailing experiences. “Air Guitar” was appointed really well and sailed beautifully. On leaving the boat the support and help offered was first class and we would like to thank Tubes, John, Sandra and Courtney in particular for being there for us every step of the way.
I always recommend Horizon Yacht Charters to those I meet when sailing, as I am confident that the boats and the team there will ensure the best ever holidays for those others.

This is the fifth time I have done a bareboat charter with Horizon, four times here in the BVI and once in St. Vincent. The staff was great getting it all set up, the boat was in great shape (I’d actually chartered this same boat 3 years ago, and she’d been maintained extremely well) their online briefing and charting materials meant that we were on the boat and out of the marina in an hour. Similarly, when we were done, we were checked out and off the boat very quickly.

This was my eighth charter with Horizon. And as always, the boat was immaculate and well equipped. Your crew handled the briefing and answered all our questions and we departed on our cruise in good time.

Your team has never disappointed us which is why I keep coming back.

We just wanted to let you know what a fabulous week we had on Moondance last week. All your team were super - everything was so well organised and everyone was incredibly friendly.
We also wanted to let you know that our skipper Captain Tom was fantastic. He was very informative and so easy to get along with. He looked after us all so well and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Thank you for a wonderful 2023 experience, (February 4-11, 2023), our first, with Horizon. From our first contact with Christalen to our last day, farewell with Sandra and Courtney, we could not be happier with the experience. Please also extend our appreciation to John, Henry, Vijay, Will, Kieran, Cara, the gents at the fuel dock, and everyone else who worked so hard behind the scenes to make our experience easy and delightful. Everyone’s friendliness and courtesy were so appreciated.
Beyond everyone’s exceptional efforts to accommodate our requests and needs, one key differentiator, from our experience with other BVI charter companies, was knowing, in advance, which boats we would be utilizing. This allowed us to hit the ground running upon arrival, thanks to each boat’s excellent Horizon-produced manual and video, as well as fine-tune our planning and manage the expectations of our fellow sailboat guests.
We look forward to returning to Horizon in the future, recommending Horizon to others, and continuing our newly formed friendships in the interim.
Thank you so very much, Horizon friends.

Great service from reservation to arrival to departure. The boat was really brand new and a great boat. The operating manual was well put together with pictures and explanations in detail making it easy as a reference. All necessary items were on board. We called once for service assistance as the AC lines had to have the air bled from the lines, was able to get easy help on the phone (provided Lime mobile) and fixed the issue easily, in just a few minutes. Sailing characteristics were good, the boat was solid in the wind and once moving it tracked well. At slow speeds the high freeboard had to be managed with respect to the wind, however that high freeboard gave excellent below deck headroom and accomodations so well worth it. It was a great experience and we would charter with Horizon again!

Horizon and BVI was an excellent choice for our family’s first bareboat sailing experience! We chartered a 42 Lagoon named Casbah III from Horizon Yacht Charters. This Lagoon 42 had a large, full stateroom in Starboard hull and two smaller, full staterooms in Port hull. My wife and I were in one of the smaller rooms, and my adult son was in one of the smaller rooms. My daughter, son-in-law and 2 1/2 year old granddaughter were in the larger room. This boat was PERFECT for our family! The experience with the Horizon Staff and Nanny Cay facilities and other establishments was excellent. The sailing was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed every area we visited – Peter Island, Soper’s Hole, Jost Van Dyke including Foxy’s Taboo and the bubbly pools, Marina Cay and the snorkeling there, The Baths at Virgin Gorda and Cooper Island. I would recommend Horizon and a BVI sailing experience to anyone. It was my first bareboat Captain experience. I have a 38 foot monohull sailboat. For any prospective Captains thinking of doing this for the first time, as long as you prepare well and take full advantage of the videos and manuals Horizon provides, you can do this!

We arrived on the last ferry so it was late. Arriving at the facility and finding our boat was very easy. We appreciated the board at the front of the dock that showed where our boat was. The lights and A/C were on, and it was very inviting. Cara came by the next morning, and we walked through the few items I had questions on that I didn't remember from the video. She was very helpful and knew the boat really well. Cara helped us embark and piloted the boat to the fuel dock where she handed it over. The rest of the trip was wonderful. The boat performed well, and we didn't have any significant mechanical issues.
Great company, great experience. Thanks so much.

Darrel Hearne | February 2021
A while back, some friends and I got to spend a week onboard the good ship Luna, a 46’ Nautitech catamaran, one of the boats in the Horizon Yacht Charters fleet. The experience was overwhelmingly positive, and I thought it fit to share my review of the boat, company and charter experience.
First, a bit about me – I have been operating charter vessels in the BVI for the past fifteen years, and spent several years working as a bareboat skipper – you hire a boat and you hire a captain. Suffice to say that I have chartered a multitude of different boats in the BVI, from many different charter companies.
My week onboard Luna was slightly different; it was myself and some good friends, just vacationing, so not a working week for me. Having been on board many bareboat charters in the past, my expectations were low. Bareboats tend to get a bit beaten up and look a bit tatty early on, in my experience – the result of credit card captains not taking the proper care of them, or the management company trying to cut corners in the maintenance. To say that I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement. The boat was pristine. Spotless inside and out, and none of the usual bareboat nicks and scratches I’ve come to expect. Understand that I run a high-end luxury crewed charter yacht these days, so I have high standards. I couldn’t find fault. At all. The cushions were immaculate. The towels and bedding new and lacked the usual bareboat mystery stains. The boat was impeccably maintained.
In addition, the boat was equipped way better than any other bareboat I have ever been on. Properly stocked with a good assortment of pots and pans, plates, glasses, cutlery etc – enough to actually cook a real meal, should you so desire. I’m used to a warped pan and maybe a broken spatula on board, but the owners of this boat had spared no expense and kitted her out properly. Fridge and freezer space galore – way more than we needed for the week. An ice maker on board, as well as (if you can believe it) a water maker. Oh, the luxury of hot uninterrupted showers. A/c was ice cold throughout.
Then I got to take her out and put her through her paces. I’d never sailed a Nautitech before – this version is the 46’ flybridge, featuring powered roller-furling in-mast mainsail, with a self-tacking jib. Fully rigged for solo sailing, this boat was an absolute joy to sail. Every line runs straight to the flybridge helm station, and I single-handed the sailing side of things the whole week. Easily. The self-tacking jib was an absolute eye-opener. Honestly, couldn’t be easier. As for electronics and nav equipment, she has everything you could possibly want onboard. Full disclosure here: she’s not a fast boat. She’s built for comfort and ease of use. The roller-furling main means no battens in the mainsail, and the self-tacking jib makes for a somewhat baggy bottom profile. This is not the boat to take racing. If you want to drift along in ease and comfort, though – I highly recommend it.
All in all, I give her a solid five-star rating, with two additional thumbs up. Great boat.
As for my dealings with Horizon Charter Yachts, all I can say is that they were extremely professional and competent. Definitely my best experience ever with a bareboat company. Emails were quickly replied to, information was given clearly and their manner was friendly and courteous throughout. Here again, I cannot find fault at all.
All in all, a great week on a great boat, from a great company. My sincerest thanks. We’ll be back for sure.

Every point of our charter was very smooth. From the initial reservation all the way through the ASA courses we took on board. Dom was an excellent instructor and we learned so much that week. I was impressed with how clean the boat was for being 5 years old, most specifically the engine compartments.
Looking forward to going out with Horizon in the future.

Firstly, thank you for one of the most amazing experiences we’ve had. We did a 7-day charter on Cosette II with Captain Dani as our instructor for ASA101, ASA103, and ASA104. Everything about the trip was perfect. When we arrived, the boat was just as pictured, clean, and well-maintained. We loved our week in BVI and Captain Dani went above and beyond to teach us while also making sure we had fun. She was the real high point of our trip. She was absolutely amazing and we couldn’t imagine a better person to spend 7 days on a boat with and learning from. Not only was she a knowledgeable and fantastic teacher, but she was also so fun and lovely to be around. We couldn’t imagine a better captain/instructor and would recommend her to everyone, any of our future sailing trips will absolutely be with Horizon/Captain Dani. It was an absolutely perfect trip and we hope to be back soon! We could not recommend enough. Thank you again.

Cynthia & John Hicks | 1-9 December 2025
We spent the week sailing with Royce and found him extremely polite, kind, knowledgeable, and thorough. All of the pre-sail precautions and instructions were very complete. Royce guided the 3 gentlemen members of our group on preparing to pick up a mooring ball, handling the lines, etc. as well as docking and general safety with a tremendous amount of explanation and patience.
We enjoyed the conversations we had about his love for his family, the BVI and in particular Tortola. He shared his knowledge about each of the islands we visited, accompanied by some colorful stories of past trips and local islanders. These gave us a wonderful insight before we embarked to each island. He shared the history of many places we sailed to and passed by. We love history and enrichment and Royce checked all the boxes.
Royce has a unique way of putting all the guests at ease while maintaining a safe and pleasurable trip for all members of our party. If we choose to charter another sail in the BVI, we would request Royce as our captain again. He was wonderful in all aspects. Bonus... Royce has a great playlist which we enjoyed topside next to him as we shared stories during our sails. He is a true gem!

Everything was great! We felt that the communication with the office to book the boat was very personal, all our questions got answered quickly and that was a big reason why we chose Horizon over one of the bigger companies.
The boat was in perfect condition, with lots of space. We had a kind checkout skipper (Noah) for 2 days. He helped us get to know the boat and the area and when we dropped him off we were very confident to sail the boat for the rest of our trip.

Last week my family and I had the opportunity to spend a week sailing the BVI on the Casbah II. We have been chartering with Horizon for over 20 years and you guys just seem to get better every time.
The complexity of travelling internationally via planes and ferries is at an all-time high but the help, advice and flexibility of your office staff made that manageable. Your boat descriptions and providing the manual in advance helped us get familiar with the boat and make sure we brought just what we needed. The tight check-in and check-out schedule we had to allow maximum boat time in light of the reduced travel options worked flawlessly.
Again, we were on the Hakuna Matata IV (previously Casbah II) and, with the high winds and seas last week, we got to see all she has to offer. Just great sailing for which the BVI is well known. You guys are just the best.
I’d say don’t change and you’re the best and the best doesn’t stand still. I know you will come up with new ways to make our next charter even better. We can’t wait for that time.
Enjoy the Holidays and our family wishes you a very prosperous and safe 2022.

Dear Horizon Friends,
Thank you for another successful and delightful Horizon Yacht charter and Horizon ASA school experience. From start to finish, our interaction with you was professional, friendly, courteous, efficient, and fun. We are so glad we returned to Horizon for 2024 and look forward to continuing to do so.
Thank you, too, for the hand-holding with our first broker experience for “Calypso Express.” We now have that process down and hope to bring more broker business to you.
Please extend our appreciation and gratitude to ALL staff, on the water and behind the desks, who contributed to our wonderful experience.
If only we would visit you more often (SMILE!).
If anyone is passing through New York City during the 2024 sailing season, please let us know, so we can hope to get you on the water and return the hospitality.
Best,
Jonathan, Dave & Mathieu

We started sailing 10 years ago and have chartered with other operators in the past. We say this only, so much as to indicate that we have others to which we can compare Horizon. It certainly is not to say that others were poor, but to say that you hold a high standard.
We really appreciated the timely emails prior to our arrival, and your video assets were exceptional. The boat specific videos were very helpful. Getting us off the dock in a timely manner was appreciated and you were very prompt when we returned to the fuel dock. You have mastered responsiveness for sure. The boat is 5 years old and it appeared and functioned as if you just took the wrapper off. Your maintenance staff should be commended for their efforts. We would be delighted to charter from Horizon should we find our way back.

I had an awesome BVI charter with you in April, where my wife, Patty, and I, had Dom Hutchinson as an instructor for the first 2 1/2 days. We had 6 guests, and everyone still raves about the trip. Dom, our 114 instructor, was great and really made us comfortable and capable of handling the boat. Horizon was absolutely awesome, and that was my 4th charter thru 3 other companies that couldn’t hold a candle to you guys! This was a terrific charter from front to back with super helpful staff, excellent equipment, and service. Really, you guys were great. We will be back!

This is the 4th charter with Horizon in about 3 years. We have never been disappointed either with any of the sailing cats or the interaction with the staff. Henry and Cara are always very attentive and a pleasure to deal with. In all, we have never dealt with a Horizon staff member that we didn’t appreciate. We highly recommend Horizon and our next charter will definitely be with them again.
