"We have booked a 2 night sailing tour on the Blizzard, a 50 ft Beneteau sailing boat, and it was a wonderful trip although the weather could have been better. Scotty, the skipper and Desiree, the assistent and cook, did a great job and knew what to do. Everything was well organized, food very nice and the boat quite clean. Scotty likes to sail really and not only use the engine and he is very experienced concerning the Whitsunday waters. Nice stops for snorkeling, clear instructions and entertaining stories made it all very enjoyable. We can really recommend this crew and company."

"My friend and I were on board Blizzard from Friday to Sunday - honestly, one of the best experiences of our lives. The snorkelling and scenery, complemented by the monohull sailing, was just so so much more than we could have hoped for. Scotty was a phenomenal skipper with his knowledge of all things, not just the sailing. He is a huge asset to your company. As is Monique, the deckhand, who was the best tour guide we could have hoped for, looked after us, and cooked up a storm every mealtime. In all, thank you so so much for giving us an amazing time."

"Just finished a fantastic 3 day trip on Blizzard with Scotty & Mitch. The sailing was brilliant and a lot of fun. Both Scotty & Mitch were extremely knowledgeable & informative; they added so much to the experience. The snorkelling was very enjoyable & Scottyâ€™s local knowledge certainly enhanced the trip to Whitehaven Beach. The food was also excellent, plenty of it & good quality. This is my 3rd trip to Aus & Iâ€™ve been on a number of trips & experiences across the country. This is by far the highlight of my previous trips combined! Iâ€™d certainly recommend Blizzard to anyone as you get the true sailing experience with an excellent crew."

"It was the best trip while being in Australia!"

Wed 28 Mar 2018

"Scotty was so knowledgable about all aspects of sailing and the reef and we learnt so much from him in such a short space of time. It's clear he is incredibly skilled and passionate about his job which makes the experience so positive for everyone. Luke was also an excellent deckhand - he prepared delicious meals for us and ensured we never wanted for anything. He was also so friendly and seemed very keen to learn as much as possible from Scott. Thanks very much to both members of the team - it wouldn't have been the same without either of them!"

"My personal highlight from 9 months in Australia is definitely the trip we just had on Blizzard, captained by Scotty and Yas his 1st mate. Great weather helped made the whole experience really enjoyable. Scotty's knowledge and experience is second to none and Yas was always really friendly as well as a great cook. Despite cyclone Debbie wiping out the islands only 6 weeks ago, they still managed to show off the best the islands have to offer."

"I did a lot of research on different boats/boat companies before booking; we wanted a good value for money boat with a small number of passengers. We chose 'Blizzard' as it had excellent reviews and met our requirements. The whole trip was a once in a lifetime, amazing experience."

"We just finished our tour on the Blizzard and wanted to give some immediate feedback. We had a wonderful time and cannot say enough good things about the tour. We really wanted to contact you directly though to emphasize how much we appreciated Mitch! He was unbelievable, especially given that it was his first trip on this boat. He worked extremely hard, was very social, and an all around pleasure to have as our first mate! We hope that many others have the chance to sail with him in the future! Thanks again."

"We choose Blizzard because we knew is was one of newest boats sailing in the Whitsundays. We were very happy with our choice and Blizzard exceeded our expectations. The experienced crew with Ellen and John looked after us for three days and the food always seemed to be brought out whenever we were hungry and there was plenty of it. During our tour we were lucky enough to see whales, turtles even a few dolphins. We are more than happy to recommend Blizzard to anyone planing on sailing in the Whitsundays!"

"Our 2 day/2 night trip on Blizzard was the highlight of my holiday in Australia. Our captain was so knowledgeable about the Great Barrier Reef and took us to the best snorkelling spots. Our deckhand was so friendly and welcoming and cooked us some lovely simple food, which was just what we needed after a day snorkelling and sailing. I would recommend this trip to everyone!"

"We recently sailed onboard Blizzard. Right from the start we could not have asked for better hosts or a more amazing experience! It far exceeded our expectations! Both of the crews knowledge and expertise, combined with their friendly and welcoming attitudes made everyone feel safe, and ensured that we had a fantastic time! We booked the private cabin with the ensuite which was perfect. The facilities on board (not just our room) were extremely clean and looked brand new! Our bed was really comfy and we had amazing views straight out of our cabin! All the meals we had onboard Blizzard were absolutely delicious! We were very impressed, it was so good to know that we would be getting a great feed after doing all our activities during the day! All the experiences we had during our time left us wanting more! We will definitely be coming back and telling all our friends about our amazing trip and the experiences we had - Thanks so much! Cant wait to come back again! "

"We couldn't recommend this trip and this boat highly enough. If you are looking for a fun relaxed trip-not a party boat but a very sociable boat-that when the wind is good makes you feel like you are really sailing-stop looking for anything else-book an adventure with isail-and if you can-book Blizzard"
