We had a fabulous 2 hour cruise with Catboat Charters on a Wednesday evening in early June. The couple was knowledgeable about sailing and would point out interesting sites. The boat was clean, had a bathroom, and made for some great pictures! Captain Kurt provided ice, cups and plates for our personal beverages and food. He was personable and available by cell phone. I would highly recommend booking a cruise with Catboat Charters in Edgartown.

This was a perfect experience. The boat is beautiful and feels luxurious, but the best part, was seeing the Edgartown harbor and surrounding areas by water. Captain Kirk and Priscilla were the perfect hosts. They had ice, cups, seltzers etc for us when we arrived. They know lots about the area and answered all our questions. They even let us DJ the Bluetooth speaker throughout our ride. Definitely recommend for all!!

This beautifully restored Catboat caught our eye in the Edgartown Harbor years ago. We inquired about who owned it, and heard about a young entrepreneur using his sailing expertise to launch an incredible brand. We have been sailing with him from the beginning! As island residents, this is our “go to island experience” when guests arrive. Captain Kurt is a gracious host who lets you share in his world of catboat sailing and makes you feel like a part of the family. As his brand has grown immensely, he is humbled by those who followed him from the beginning. Catboat Charters will always be our favorite on Martha’s Vineyard!

We had a fantastic afternoon sail with Catboat Charters sailing in Edgartown Harbor and Katama Bay. It was really interesting to see the Chappaquiddick coastline and the magnificent waterfront estates. Captain Kurt and first mate, Max, were very easygoing and knowledgable. The Catboat is very stable and gentle to sail- even in windy conditions. Overall a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend this very special charter!

Catboat Charters is in Newport!!! My friends and I took a mid-day cruise yesterday around the Narragansett Bay captained by Kurt and Priscilla. To say the day was enjoyable is an understatement. Beautiful boat, even better people. Living your New England summer starts here!

Great experience today at Catboat Charters. Weather definitely cooperated and we spent a couple of hours cruising around Edgartown harbor and Chappaquiddick. Highly recommend it. A great way to see the vineyard from the deck of a one-of-a-kind sailboat.

I highly recommend a sail aboard Catboat Charter's Tigress while on Martha's Vineyard, as it was the highlight of my recent trip there. The boat itself is classic and beautifully restored. The US Flag sail is particularly impressive, because it was personally painted by Captain Kurt himself. The two hour sail on the breathtaking waters surrounding Edgartown and Chappy was just wonderful. Thank you Capt. Kurt and first mate Lindsay for the impressive array of refreshments and a most memorable afternoon!

Summer 2017 - During a recent visit to Martha’s Vineyard, we had a relaxing afternoon sail with friends aboard the Catboat Charters beautifully restored wooden catboat, “Tigress”.Captain Kurt expertly manned the sails while his first mate, Lindsay, served us wine and refreshments. They were both professional and excellent hosts, answering our questions about the island and making sure we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon on the “Tigress”.The best part of the day, it’s hard to say…. the spectacular scenery, the calmness of sailing, and a sunny day were intoxicating. It was great to have the opportunity to view the Vineyard from such a beautiful, historic sailboat, too. Not to mention, the kind hospitality of Capt. Kurt and his first mate, Lindsay was unbeatable.We look forward to our next visit to the Vineyard and another sail on the “Tigress”. Thanks for everything, Capt. Kurt, and Lindsay.
