Because of recommendations on this board, I reserved with Capt'n Phil's Wayward Sailor and booked a trip to Jost for a day trip. Shared his boat with a couple and their two teenagers.

The Capt'n and his crew gave us a guided walking tour of the area around Foxy's. I really enjoyed that part of the trip and learned a lot about the history and vegetation.

I have only been out with one charter and we loved it. We went with Lion in Da Sun. Josh was super nice and took us where ever we wanted to go. We went to the Baths and he gave us a tour. We went into some of the rock formations that I don't think everyone gets to see. He was very informative and professional. He was also alot of fun. We also ate lunch at the Willy T, snorkeled the Caves at Norman and snorkeled at Booby rock. When we go back we plan on using Lion in Da Sun again. I resently saw a trip report were Josh climed a palm tree and picked a coconut for his passengers. You can also look at my trip report.

If anyone is looking to share a Jost trip let me know. Wife and I were planning on just taking the ferry but if there is someone who wants to share let me know.
