Their Words

(As told to her broker...) "I hope you won't get sick of my raving about what a fantastic this trip was. We all had fun, got along, loved the crew and the food was to die for. Everything was home made by Kerry. I don't think there was any part of the meals that were just mediocre. Please do share my comments with Rod and Kerry. I know they hear it all the time... I can tell from their guest book. But hopefully no-one gets sick of compliments.

How did you enjoy your cruising vacation? There were 9 of us passengers on this trip and most if not all of us agreed that it was the best vacation ever! So we enjoyed it very much.

How would you describe your Captain and crew? Were they Courteous? Helpful? Friendly? Attentive? Knowledgeable? Rod and Kerry made the vacation 10x more enjoyable. They were so easy going and accommodating. They made sure we had fun and catered to our every need. The attention to detail was phenomenal. We all had various likes and dislikes in food and they knew every detail. it was truly amazing. Rod and Kerry were knowledgeable with the islands and dive sites, and also where the parties were. We had so much fun with the crew.

Tell me about your meals? Did the menus meet your expectations? We all licked our plates clean 3x per day...i am serious! We did not opt to have any meals off the yacht...not because we are cheap by any means but because we knew no restaurants out there would top Kerry's cooking. We suggested everyday that she writes a cook book. That kind of gourmet cooking must be shared with others. The food was probably the best thing about this trip. None of us can fit back into our clothes.

How is the yacht? Is she clean and well-maintained? Were your cabins comfortable? The yacht was shiny and spotless. It looks so much better than on the web. The web does not do the yacht much justice, at least my impression was that it's too old. I think it should be bolded, much emphasized that it was refitted in the last 2 years. I was pleasantly surprised. Rod and Kerry treated the yacht like their own home...taking care of it and cleaning constantly.

How did you find the pace and the itinerary of your vacation? Just perfect. They accommodated our every need...the divers got to dive lots, and they set it up in a way that us non-divers did not feel left out or felt like we had to sit around and wait on their schedule.

"How could anyone get sick of hearing one’s client “rave” about their fantastic trip (see below). Thank you SO much for pulling off a seamless charter, under the most incredible circumstances! All of my Preference Sheets will now ask the question “Is any member of your party pregnant?”!

When I have a few more details about how you handled the “event”, I would like to send you a glowing letter of recommendation, with a copy to Charterport. I have sailed to Anegada at least 40 times, and never thought what one would do under an emergency situation, let alone the imminent birth of a premature baby on a catamaran!!! I know you handled everything with aplomb. Your actions are commendable and should be shouted from the rooftops. That’s exactly what I intend to do!

Thank you so much for your hard work and quick thinking. I will be in touch with more. And if you have time to fill me in on getting the flight for life, how baby is doing if you know..."

"We are home and the snow is coming down like a Christmas scene. There is about 6 inches on the ground and everything is white. Thank you so very much!!!!! You were so gracious and accomadating! The meals were wonderful. We are finding it difficult to describe to our family and friends how wonderful it was. Now we must go back to work. Already talking about planning another charter! Hope you are enjoying your time off! Sending a big hug! Thank you!"

"Well we are back in the snow after a wonderful trip on the Shellette. We traveled throughout the BVI starting of course in Tortola then on to Peter lsland, Virgin Gorda, Anegaga, Jost Van Dyke and others that escape me now. Every stop was an adventure and breathtaking scenery. Beaches that were beautiful, fun, and secluded they “blew us all away”. Underwater reefs that had so much color and marine life such as barracuda, stingrays, dolphins, turtles, eels, and others. We met a lot of wonderful people during our trip (mostly in the bars) we all laughed and learned from each other. The Shellette was clean, comfortable, and reliable.

Rodrigo and Carrie was not just a great crew they become our 4th couple and friends. Carrie meals were unbelievable. We all raved about the service, presentation of the meals. The meals themselves were worthy of 5 Star restaurant. Carrie did many other things for us we will never know. Rodrigo was our guide, caption, resident historian, big brother. Both of them made our trip with their service, knowledge, and friendship. Yes the islands are most beautiful, but our crew is what we will remember most.

There is so much more we could say but, the 6 of us all agree it was our best vacation ever!!"

"Thank you so much for making this trip so wonderful!! I know that we'll never forget it! It was definitely my favorite vacation of all time (and I know it was for Herb too). The food was outstanding and the navigation was perfect too! Anyway, we just wanted to personally thank you ourselves! Take care! Thanks again."
