I wish I could give Jody and the Wylie 65 a million stars haha, the entire experience was absolutely EXCELLENT!
Our Captain this trip was Saxby and good lord, him and his team made this experience absolutely unforgettable. We rented with Jody for a team outing for our company, about 30 people total onboard. So naturally, we brought a lot of snacks, alcohol, and of course lunch. Well, the entire team could NOT have been more accommodating and helpful. They helped us load up the boat, they unboxed all of our beer/champagne, and put it on ice. They laid out our food for us. It was like having a fully paid help staff on board. We had to do very little.
Saxby and his crew were amazing gracious and wonderful people. So incredibly kind, nonjudgemental (to the folks who don't know how to sail, or maybe had too many beers) they were so pleasant and easy to talk to. They basically planned the entire itinerary for us, so we had to worry about very, very little. They took us all around the bay, we did a biology team building event that they put together for us, we went under both bridges. I could go on and on and on. If you need a large boat for ~30 or so people, this is the one for you. No question.
The entire time my team kept approaching me telling me what an amazing experience it was. The boat itself is huge and impressive. Lots and lots of space! They had tons of coolers and fridges for the food and alcohol. Saxby and his team clearly knew exactly what they were doing and were very experienced and ready with recommendations or even just fun facts about where we were going or what we were seeing.
All around, a huge success. I cannot recommend Jody + Wylie 65 enough, we had an absolutely fabulous time! Thank you so much!!!
