Have any of you used these guys? How are their service compared to New Horizons?

Thank you,

John

John,
We've used Stormy & Pirate's several times, and I'd say they're every bit as good as the New Horizons group. The biggest difference is their boats: New Horizons' are faster, so you end up visiting one additional destination during the day. New Horizons' typical itinerary is The Baths, lunch at Marina Cay, Diamond Reef or Monkey Point to snorkel, and Jost Van Dyke to finish the day. Stormy Petral or Pirates Penny also start at The Baths, hit Cooper Island for lunch, and typically the caves on Norman Island for snorkeling before heading home.

The crews have always been great, and I'd go with either again with no hesitation.

Best,

Last year we loved our trip on Stormy. Can't remember the captain's name, can you? I remember the girl's name was Megan.
Both were AWESOME! Can't wait for this year's trip!
