点评:Our half-day catamaran charter unfortunately was not a good first impression. The dock location is at what appears to be an abandoned home that is currently for sale and quite run down. Getting down to the dock required walking down many steps with railings that felt old and not very sturdy. There was no one there to greet us, which made it difficult to find the boat through the overgrown brush.
Once onboard, the captain and mate were personable when we spoke to them, but they did not go out of their way to engage with our group. We were told we would visit two snorkeling spots, but we were only taken to one. We had also asked about seeing some beaches on St. John, which did not happen. The trip mostly consisted of stopping at one snorkeling location and then sailing.
That said, the time on the water was still pleasant and enjoyable, it just didn’t meet our expectations based on what was described. The catamaran itself was roomy, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of space for our group of eight to relax in both the sun and shade.
At the end of the trip, we were brought back to the same dock and left waiting for our ride at the abandoned property along a very busy road, with no bathroom or amenities available, which was not ideal.
Overall, while parts of the experience were enjoyable, it fell short of expectations.
翻译:我们预订的半日双体帆船之旅的第一印象并不好。码头位于一栋看似废弃的待售房屋内,而且破败不堪。下到码头需要走很多台阶,扶手感觉老旧且不太牢固。没有人迎接我们,这使得我们很难在茂密的灌木丛中找到船。
登船后,船长和船员在我们交谈时态度友好,但他们并没有主动与我们互动。我们被告知会去两个浮潜点,但实际上只去了一个。我们还询问了能否去圣约翰岛的一些海滩,但也没有实现。整个行程基本上就是在一个浮潜点停留,然后继续航行。
尽管如此,在水上的时光仍然令人愉快,只是与之前的描述不符。双体船本身宽敞、干净、舒适,足够我们八个人在阳光下和阴凉处放松休息。
行程结束后,我们被送回同一个码头,然后被留在繁忙公路旁一处废弃的房产里等候接送,那里没有任何卫生间或其他设施,实在令人失望。
总的来说,虽然部分体验令人愉快,但整体效果却低于预期。
