Great experience! Loved the kayaking and the boat was very clean and caption was great! Saw some dolphins and got some great pictures! Would definitely go again!

My husband gave me a $100 gift certificate to this place a couple of Christmas ago. We wanted to book a special anniversary sail. Unfortunately, we did not see there was an expiration date handwritten in VERY, VERY small print along the side of the gift certificate. When my husband called they would not honor the coupon because it was expired. We are very disappointed. It seems like they could have been more understanding, Especially after the year we have all just had, which is a big reason we did not use it last year. We probably would have booked another excursion we had planned with our grandkids..had they honored it. However, now we will go elsewhere.

We had such an awesome experience on our private sunset cruise. (Private due to covid) You absolutely cannot beat the price Kathleen D Sailing is offering for this! What a beautiful experience and a big shout out to our great captain! Captain Potter!

These guys are the best in the area. We had friends in town from Chicago and we took the sunset cruise out of Marina Jacks. Their boats are always super clean, friendly staff on board, and we had a great time. One of our friends couldn't make the cruise very last minute as he had to ship Breast milk and the captain was kind enough to let us cancel his ticket with no hassle.

Outrageous sunset

A Fantastic 2:00 hour cruise of Sarasota Bay! Our daughter was in town from Colorado and we wanted to give her a unique Sarasota experience, this is it! Captain Steve was a wonderful host and made us feel comfortable & relaxed. I would recommend Kathleen D Catamaran....highly! We want to do Ana Maria Island and long boat key, next! A Sarasota Gem!

This was really an awesome experience that made my wife's birthday special. The team does all the can to provide a very comfortable and relaxing tour. Even tough it is a 2 hour tour, the captain is not limited and will ensure that you get the best possible spot to see the beautiful sunset. We went a little longer due to winds and to stay away from the traffic, but we really appreciated that they went the extra measure to ensure the passengers had the best vantage point to view the sunset.

We had such a great time with Captain Kit on our sunset cruise. The boat is beautiful and having only 4-6 people on board made it seem like a private excursion. The captain was awesome with the kids. We ran into some weather and were unable to see the sunset, but they refunded us part of the charges without us even asking. We'll definitely be back!

This was our second year sailing with Kathleen D sailing catamarans. The first year our captain was "The resident Rastafarian " who's name escapes me. He was so pleasant and made our sail extremely enjoyable. This year our captain Russ was also a pleasure. We ran into many lovebugs and he was kind and understanding of the situation. He tried relentlessly to avoid them to no avail. We ended up ending our sail early and upon arrival to the dock, he informed us that they were going to refund half our fee. This was very unexpected and only shows the true character of this company. We will most definitely be using them again next year.

We were a family of 4 and only had another 2 for the trip so we felt like we had our own private catamaran. Russ was a great Captain and provided some fun facts and great conversation. Had the perfect sunset and the weather was amazing. Highly recommend!

Went on a morning sail with my daughter and son in-law. Russ was a very amicable and capable captain. We went shelling and kayaking and were not disappointed. The boat was great and fun to ride on. For anyone who wants to experience Sarasota and its islands beauty this is the boat for you.
