Top notch skipper and boat. Nothing too much trouble and highly knowledgeable on marks, techniques and local fauna and flora. Caters for all ages and great with novices. Quality gear. Very highly recommended.
Skippers Reponse: Hi Justin, it is always a pleasure to host you and your family. Thank you for taking the time to drop me a nice review. See you again soon. Andy

Sophie Murdin (13/08/2023)
What a wonderful morning we had exploring Plymouth Sound (and a bit further afield) and swimming off the boat, in the lovely company of Andy and Trish. Highlights were seeing dolphins, and swimming off Drake's Island and in beautiful gullies at Pier Cellars near Kingsand/Cawsand. Andy and Trish provided us with hot drinks and snacks, and at all times explained procedures on the boat clearly and with good humour. We all felt completely safe and had a magical time.
Skippers Reponse: Thank you Sophie for such a wonderful review. It really was our pleasure to host you Dartmoor Divas. It was such a pleasant morning and yes the dolphins inside Plymouth Sound was a real bonus. Hope to see you all again when the weather picks up and Summer finally arrives.

My friends treated me to a day on Andy and Trish's boat for my 60th Birthday. We are a group of 9 cold water swimmers who just wanted the chance to have a couple of swims in good placed in Plymouth Sound. We had such a good time! Andy and Trish were so organised and had obviously put a lot of thought into our swimming and boat safety. Andy had even bought a new ladder to put on the back of the boat for us. Her gave very clear instructions about the direction of tides and how to summon the boat back if we were in trouble. I felt completely safe with him and Trish in charge. Added to the wonderful swimming, we saw dolphins close up to the boat which was just wonderful. Hot tea and coffee were provided and Andy and Trish were so friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend a day/half day on Patricia Rose to anybody wanting a great time and wanting to feel safe.
Skippers Reponse: Thanks Anna for your great company and and a gleaming review. Trish and I had a lovely morning with you all and it was our privilege to be part of your celebrations and memories. We hope to see you all again soon, when Summer arrives, best wishes Andy & Trish
