Caption dave runs a tight ship. He made several comments to the boat about keeping kids quiet, «I do 7 tours a day and I can’t do them with all the chatter and side conversations». The boat only holds 13 people, which was 3 families, so 6 adults and 7 kids (all under 8). No one was being especially noisy. Just kids excited to be on a boat. If you want an authentic crusty sea captain look no further.

Captain Dave is a local who grew up on Kidd Island (yes, as in Captain Kidd) in the Thimbles. His smaller boat can get navigate the inlets better than the bigger Sea Mist. And Captain Dave gives a colorful and often hilarious history and commentary of the islands. He reminded me of «the dude» from Big Lebowski meets Jimmy Buffet. Highly recommend Captain Dave if your looking for a more personal and less touristy cruise. Great trip.
