Quest Description

Quest is a custom-built 1991 Alex Simonis catamaran that is equally at home voyaging through open ocean swell or being an adventure platform in a secluded bay. She is a drop-dead gorgeous boat that turns heads wherever she goes. Her airy interior is inviting, with plenty of light to compliment the grain of the well-appointed wood. Her staterooms exhibit all the comforts of home, with plush bedding and cozy nooks that make it hard to get up in the morning. With ample seating around tables in the salon and cockpit, Quest is the perfect place to relax, socialize, or party. There is even space for yoga or launching a kite. Sailing remarkably well, Quest dances through the waves. She is a joy to sail, and brings smiles to the faces of even the most experienced sailors. She is also incredibly safe, making her the perfect boat for families and first-time sailors alike. Quest is truly a wonder to behold. She is a work of art, a dream come true, and an absolute joy to sail. If you are looking for an unforgettable sailing experience, then Quest is the boat for you.

Aaron Lathrop - Captain
Hailing from a diverse career path in sales, healthcare management, and emergency management, I’ve always been driven by a passion for helping others. However, my journey took a transformative turn when I discovered sailing. For years, I followed a familiar trajectory of work and family, but amidst the hustle, I felt a quiet disconnect from the natural world. Stepping onto the deck and feeling the wind in the sails was a profound reawakening. The ocean became my sanctuary - a place where the rhythm of the waves brought a sense of calm and clarity that was often lost in the demands of daily life. This isn’t just a career for me; it’s a calling to share the peace and wonder I’ve found on the water.

Now, as the captain of this catamaran, I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and genuine passion to every charter. My background has equipped me with a deep commitment to safety, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to navigate any situation with a calm and confident demeanor.

My greatest joy is sharing the magic of the sea with others, offering an escape where you can reconnect with nature and yourself. Whether you’re an experienced sailor or a first-time voyager, my goal is to provide a seamless and unforgettable experience, allowing you to relax, recharge, and discover the boundless beauty of the world around us.
