The Story
George Bridger will be your captain and his wife Stacey, your hostess. George came to Antigua for Sailing Week in 1980, bought the beloved s/y Stargazer in 1987, won race week in 1988 and 89, and married his best friend in 1992. All events took place in Antigua which has been home since the I do’s…
George started StatTek a marine electronics and yacht management business at Jolly Harbour in 1993. Each weekend we’d go sailing and take our friends along. Over the years there were many mini jaunts to other islands creating memories for a lifetime. Later on, we saw the beautiful charter boats going out EVERY DAY with guests doing the same thing….and thought… “Hey, why should they have all the fun?!”
So a new chapter in life began over two years ago with the beautiful Gadaboat a 52’ Oceanis …. Come along with us for an incredibly special private day of sailing and experience the freedom, exhilaration, relaxation, get involved or zone out. Tasty food, wine plus refreshments, snorkeling, swimming, beaching, exploring, the sunset… and much much more!!…. Experience Gadaboating with us.

FULL DAY 10:30 till the sun sets
This full 8-hour day enables you to visit more than one destination, such as sailing to Carlisle Bay, where there is snorkeling along the shoreline in these shallow crystal waters. Perhaps the winds are calling us to Deep Bay to snorkel the wreck. After playing with the fish or exploring the “deep”, enjoy icy cold beverages of your choosing, with some appetizers and fresh hearty but healthy lunch.
Did someone say, “Let’s go to the beach!” there are a few not so far from here! A brief sail to a quiet beach, it is all yours. Or float on noodles with a chilled glass of rose’ and give yourself over to the afternoon.
Let’s get everyone on board and sail out to greet the sunset. How about Stacey’s soon-to-be world-famous Rum Punch!!
