Has anyone ever sailed with Flying Clouds. They get mixed reviews on TA so I’m wondering if anyone here has ever done an excursion and how was it?

I would be interested to hear what others have to say as well.

Depends on your expectations.  It's a very popular excursion.  You can have fun and go with the flow, or sulk because it's crowded.   Also, they rarely go under sail, due to time constraints and the fact that they are in the harbor for a good part of the trip.

I enjoy the trip.  Rose Island is beautiful, and if you do the all day tour with lunch, it's a nice offering.  If you don't mind Styrofoam and plastic forks, it's fine.   Some complain because they like to.

The same for others in this category.

We did it last November and enjoyed the day.  Wasn't too crowded that day.   Lunch was good.

    The Flying Cloud is a small catamaran - I believe there were fewer than 20 passengers aboard. The crew were all extremely helpful and congenial. We each were able to get one free soda and one free rum punch from the bar on board. Large bowls of chips were put out for the return trip.

    We took the Flying Cloud excursion and were very pleased. Price included ride to and from the boat, snorkeling gear, lunch and lots of tasty rum punch. The boat is a catamaran which is a fun design that includes a portion of the deck that is mesh on which you can sit of lay like a hammock. Really fun way to ride.
