    Wonderful experience!!…read more Our captain Jason made the experience memorable and fun! Our group was a little late and he still waited for us, still accommodated our request to stop at the lake store for snacks cause we were all starving. He took us to the best spots on the lake. We had a blast!

    I booked a specific yacht with Lake Travis Yacht Rentals about a month in advance for my birthday…read morebecause I had been on that exact boat before and specifically wanted its layout (Goldeneye). I planned my celebration around that experience. At 11am the day of my 3pm reservation, I got a call saying there was an engine issue and that I was being moved to a "better" boat. When we arrived, it was clear that it wasn't (Shaken not Stirred). It may have been newer or had a bigger engine, but it had a completely different layout and vibe, which was exactly what I booked for. If this had been the option when I booked, I would have chosen a different boat or looked at other rental companies. What disappointed me most was the response. Before I even asked about a refund or discussed any possible solutions, one of the owners immediately said, "You're not getting a refund." At that point, I wasn't asking for one. I just wanted to understand my options. That set a defensive tone instead of a customer-centered one. I completely understand that mechanical issues can happen, and I don't fault a company for something unexpected. What I do expect is transparency, empathy, and some attempt to make it right. There was no sincere apology, no acknowledgment of the disappointment, and no offer to accommodate despite the last-minute change. My friends encouraged me to go ahead so we wouldn't lose the day, and we still had fun, but that was because of the people I was with and Captain Neil, who was professional and excellent. Before we left, the owners asked us not to leave a bad review, which felt disappointing given that the focus could have been on making things right. I left feeling dismissed and like I paid full price for an experience I did not choose. I can't confidently recommend this company based on how this was handled. If you do book, I'd encourage asking up front what happens if the boat you've reserved becomes unavailable and to be prepared for the possibility of last-minute changes.

    Outbound Sailing - Just another day at "work"

    My hubby and I have been yearning for the sailing life for literal years now, and we decided that…read morethis summer was the perfect time to start making that dream a reality by taking the first sailing course, ASA 101! Our initial thought was to find a sailing school in Kemah, but I wondered if there was one closer to us, and, sure enough, there is! Enter Outbound Sailing on Lake Travis. We scheduled our class right away online, and the manager, Sean, confirmed with us almost immediately. Both he and Tim, the business owner, were absolute pleasures to work with! When the day finally came for Day 1 of our ASA 101 course, we headed over to Lakeway to meet our instructor, Spencer, at the dock, and, y'all, he is seriously the most open, sweet, encouraging, and engaging person ever, and that's not hyperbole! I was extremely nervous about the whole thing, but he immediately made me feel INCREDIBLY at ease, and, we got straight to work! From beginning to end, hubby and I knew that Spencer had our backs, from the dock talks to the rigging talks to the knot talks to the hours of beautiful practice sailing. He made all of that hard work feel like pure fun! Make no mistake, though, y'all! It IS hard work, and you need to know that going in! It's an actual class, so don't expect mimosas and charcuterie boards as you sail! LOL! You need to Really. Want. To. Learn. How. To. Sail. We did, so we were all in! Pro tip: When they tell you to buy the official ASA book for the course and to study it PRIOR to the class, take them seriously! Study, and especially commit the Points of Sail and the sailboat, sails, and rigging parts to memory. Also, do the 4 review sections! It'll all make things a lot easier on you! There's a 100 multiple choice question official ASA exam that you take on the morning of Day 2, and, while Spencer was a GENIUS at preparing us for it, we were able to spend more time actually sailing because of how prepared we made ourselves ahead of time! After two intense and awesome days, hubby and I both ended up passing the course to become ASA 101 certified (yay!), but, most importantly, we truly had the time of our lives doing it, and we absolutely have Spencer LeGrande and Outbound Sailing to thank for that!

    We just finished our ASA 101 training with Captain Scott, and he was very kind when explaining how…read morewe inadvertently made the sailboat do crazy things! LOL Captain Scott is a skilled sailor and a wonderful instructor... I'd take another class from him any time. Captain Tim, one of the owners, met with my wife and me before we decided to take the lessons. He spent all the time needed to answer all of our questions and explain the process. Lake Travis is a good place to take your sailing training, the winds come from all directions and are constantly changing. We are looking forward to further honing our sailing skills and sailing with Outbound Sailing. We highly recommend you check them out if you're thinking about learning to sail.
