I would like to say what a fantastic trip we had. James is such a kind and considerate skipper, going out of his way to make sure all the guests were happy, as were all the crew. The Proud seahorse is a beautiful ship, comfortable and so nicely fitted out and so pleased you left the hot tub on deck. Congratulations on your new ship.
We sailed on The Proud Seahorse's maiden voyage around Skye and the small isles. What a lovely boat, beautifully fitted out and so comfortable. After being welcomed aboard with champagne and canapés we were introduced to the crew, their first time together. No hiccups, everything went smoothly.
Our charming skipper James,very experienced and knowledgable watching the weather for our comfort aided by Maddy who never stopped making sure we were all cared for.
Freshly made bread, cakes or biscuits each day with delicious meals prepared by chef Peter. Taken ashore by Nigel our wild life expert for the week who went the extra mile literally, looking for Puffins on Canna.
All the guests really had a super time and to crown it all off a soak in the hot tub! (Not all at once might I add). Wonderful.

We found the whole process very easeful and Emma just lovely. All was managed beautifully with weather, conditions and the passengers. A great balance, not too long at sea and going ashore felt timely and open, not over controlled. Our wishes and mobility always explored and agreed upon. Excursions agreed not imposed. We loved our cruise so much, the fellow passengers especially will become lifelong finds. May we make a special mention of the crew. ALL were such a delight, exceptional in their kindness, organisation and knowledge. We will miss them too and we must say Will in his unassuming quiet way seemed to have a breath of knowledge that was amazing ! Callum a young enthusiastic positive guy that will be a total success in life and Angus….what can we say a Chapter in his own right wonderful skipper and person.
