Truly a memorable sailing experience - ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the best experience with Captain Oliver celebrating our 38th wedding anniversary! Captain Oliver was incredibly knowledgeable about the area where we were sailing and made the evening so special. He included my husband, John, in steering the sailboat while he hoisted the sails, and even let me join in to help as well! We enjoyed a bottle of wine we brought along, and when the evening turned chilly, he provided a cozy blanket. The music was fabulous as we sailed along the river, watching a stunning sunset. Returning to see the beautiful lights along the Cape Fear River was the perfect ending to a perfect night. Highly recommend Captain Oliver for a truly memorable sailing experience!
