Jim was awesome and so friendly. Everything was smooth from pickup to drop off. The weather was chilly so he adjusted to where he knew the wind wouldn’t be terrible while we were shelling. So really every day is a good boating day! Great day all around. Thanks Jim!

Fantastic experience sailing with Captain Jim! The communication beforehand and the hospitality while on board were both excellent. He was super flexible with our departure time and took great care of us as a group. The Iremía is a gorgeous boat with every convenience you need for a day of fun in the sun. There is tons of lounging room, a great sound system and even a paddleboard! I highly, highly recommend a day sail with Captain Jim. It was an A+ day on the water and we would book again in a heartbeat!

- AngieAngie★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5/5 stars (5/5)Day Sailing on a Beautiful Luxury CatamaranJul. 04th
We did a full day charter with Jim on July 4th and had a fantastic trip! He was very generous in accomodating our group of five friends. The catamaran was beautiful, well appointed and spotless. We brought our own food & drinks aboard and just enjoyed the leisurely sail to Egmont Key. Capt. Jim singlehanded the boat perfectly, even when we experienced a brief storm squall. He was fun & knowledgeable, and had a great playlist of music for sun & sailing! I will definitely charter with Jim and Barefoot Sailing again! I highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurious day on the water in St. Pete Beach sailing with Capt. Jim!

We had a fun day with Captain Jim!
Boat is very nice. Plenty of room for my family of five.
Packed in as much as we could.
We stopped at Egmont Key. The old forts were neat, and we saw ten tortoises.
After Egmont we headed to Shell Key, which was beautiful. Had lunch there and got out of the boat to look for shells.
Stopped at another beach to look for more shells and then headed back.
On the way back we saw some dolphins and a manatee.
Highly recommend Captain Jim and his boat!
