QM Travels Sailing Experiences

I met Quincey at a weekly business networking event, where we got to bond and get to know each other well over a year+. My SO and I are minimalists, we've been looking forward to building and living in our own tiny home (on land) for some time, so sharing tiny living stories with Quincey was exciting and fun from the get-go!

Quincey's kind demeanor, amazing knowledge about nutrition, and cooking skills are outstanding, and I knew Mitch was an experienced sailing instructor (she had told me lots about him:)

When she told me about turning their lifestyle into a sailing adventure AND a bed and breakfast experience, I freaked! How EXCITING!!! I loved watching their journey unfold as they found and brought home the Esprit from Panama. I also knew my SO and I would be interested in experiencing all they had to offer!

My SO and I met on a cruise on the Pacific ocean, so I knew the (beyond) perfect way to celebrate our 10 year anniversary would be on the Pacific, and this time on a slightly smaller vessel, while adventuring around the bay, enjoying delicious meals and wonderful company!

We met Quincey and Mitch in Berkeley, sailed around the Bay on day 1. We spent the night in Ayala Cove on Angel Island, then hiked to the top of Angel Island for panoramic views of the Bay Area the next morning.

We got extremely lucky with the weather our entire trip (the first weekend of November), enjoying clear views of the skyline from the top of Angel Island, and water so calm as we re-entered the Berkeley Marina and watched the sunset, they had to turn on the engine! We learned a thing or two about sailing and we even spotted some dolphins and a whale along the way!

Quincey and Mitch are both calm, welcoming and lighthearted. We definitely felt extremely safe and in great hands with them the entire time - they are true professionals! The amount of knowledge Mitch has of sailing and safety, is incredible, and sets you at ease.

We loved learning and hanging out with Quincey and Mitch, exchanging interesting and fun travel adventure stories and tips. And aboard such an intimate vessel, we also felt like we had the space to just be, enjoy ourselves and one another :)

Thank you for a wonderful first time sailing adventure and helping us celebrate our 10 year anniversary in a meaningful way Quincey and Mitch!!

QM Travels were amazing hosts, made us feel right at home on our overnight wine cruise up the Napa River. We saw beautiful wildlife & feasted on amazing wholesome meals all cooked onboard Esprit!
We are fellow sailors and immediately noticed Quincey & Mitch's clear communication, high safety standards & great boat handling.
They shared great stories along the way and we thoroughly enjoyed our time onboard.
Best backyard getaway, can't wait to join you guys again soon!

My family and I had an amazing evening with QM Travels out in the Bay. Quincey and Mitch were wonderful hosts taking us out for our sunset sail. They answered all our questions about sailing, showed us the favorite spots on the boat and gave us quite the sailing experience. They were such gracious knowledgable hosts. I would go out on the bay with QM Travels any day.

Look no further for an unforgettable birthday, date night, and/or anniversary experience with QM Travels! Not only is their boat stunning, but the captain and first mate, Quincey & Mitch, are the sweetest of people. To a person who is used to living in a larger space, there is definitely ample room to explore. Not to mention, the vibrant pair make the experience so comfortable for anyone to enjoy.

The thought of being in tight corridors on a boat might seem intimidating at first, but once you get on, you instantly remember why you signed up. For me it was, to get away from the day-to-day, enjoy life with some of my favorite humans, and to gaze over the vast sea. Returning to the ocean with beautiful people was a great way to kick off another year of life.

Thanks, QM Travels! Keep adventuring on! :)

Couldn't recommend this experience more. My husband and I had the loveliest evening sailing in the bay with Quincey and Mitch- caught a gorgeous glowing sunset over Mt Tam and ate a delicious dinner under the glowing city lights. It was so fun to see bay from a different perspective, and we learned a lot about the history and about sailing. I can't wait to get out on the water again with these two. Thank you Q and M!
