Hi Trina! I wanted to let you know we have just finished our charter and I must tell you I am wowed. The boat was not at all like the photos. It’s beautiful and comfortable - stunning. The crew is out of this world. They helped at every turn and kept the boat super clean. When home I am happy to write a full write up on my experience. I am not easy to impress. This was above and beyond my expectations. I look forward to booking my next charter with you. Thank you! Yacht SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE / Bahamas / March

Martha, so nice to hear from you! I’m afraid if I get started on this trip I will never stop! From the moment went met Captain Murph until the day we waved good bye I can say there was never a moment of disappointment. Every member of the crew was professional, engaged and anticipated our every need. The rooms were spotless and the food was consistently delicious! I was fearful having asked for healthy meals (wasn’t sure all of our guests agreed!). The presentation was stunning and each meal was unique, healthy and deliciously memorable! It was wonderful getting to see old favourite haunts and discovering new ones. The flexibility of being able to choose our own way and spend as much time as we liked in any area was exhilarating. We were over the top satisfied with this method of traveling and can’t wait to do it again! Yacht LEGENDARY / Bahamas / 10-17th of March

Hi Colin, it was a pleasure meeting you on the boat! We had a great time at Yvonne. The yacht is excellent in all aspects. Interior and design is really state of the art! Crew and staff were very attentive and took care of us in a discreet yet professional way. Would definitely consider chartering Yvonne again. Last, the services provided by CharterWorld and you has been top class! I really appreciate all the assistance we got from you organizing chartering the yacht. All the best, - Yacht YVONNE / Cannes, South of France / 12-16 March

Oh, my goodness, Trina, it was fabulous!!!! I really can’t imagine a more incredible experience. I don’t think the Queen is provided better service, food, or amenities. Yet all in a very friendly, comfortable environment. It was everything we had ever hoped a charter experience would be. We WILL be scheduling another charter through you. Thank you so much for making this opportunity available! My best, - Yacht STARFISH / BVI (British Virgin Islands) / Feb

Dear Martha, First and foremost this is to let you know that all eight of us thoroughly enjoyed our 9 days aboard S/Y Taboo which was largely due to Miranda’s commitment to seeing that the charter was seamlessly delivered with a positive attitude. Miranda led from the front and was an equally competent seaman as she was cook. We consider that the pride that Miranda and David take in ensuring that S/Y Taboo is properly maintained ensures that intrusive break downs are minimised. Miranda has trained up her young crew, Sam and Julia so that they support her in running the yacht and they interfaced well with us the charter guests ensuring that we lacked nothing.

Trina, Thanks for checking in - I wanted to wait until I returned from the trip to let you know my comments. I will offer my comments below regarding the trip and crew, mainly as constructive input for you on future trips. Martin and Cari-Mari did a great job of attending to our needs and making sure we had what we needed - mostly. Their personalities are well suited for being a crew and they are very easy going. They quickly adjusted their "preferences" to accommodate our desires and needs (such as using the air conditioning in the evening). However, the one issue (while not a big deal - did create some lost time and angst). On ALL past charters I have been on someone from the crew either joined us when we went ashore or accompanied us when we snorkeled - either in the tender alongside of us or actually in the water helping locate fish or other interesting things to see. We have been on numerous charters and we both recognized the lack of service. I will admit - that we are both spoiled and are used to over the top service, so the problem could lie with us. All in all - a very successful trip. Hope this little bit of critique may help. Thanks for checking in. Yacht YES DEAR / BVI / January

Amanda, a treasured trip for sure… Thanks for everything! We very much enjoyed our time aboard SEVEN which is now given the name of 00SEVEN for its Thai Registry. David, Sarah and Toto were outstanding and went above and beyond to try to please us. Wid was our Thai captain who was required to be on board. We didn’t have much interaction with him although he was pleasant. He served more as a set of extra hands to David. The boat was clean and maintained throughout the voyage especially by David since he told us the owners are pretty fastidious about the cleanliness of the boat. The provisions we requested were all on board and dietary needs were addressed. The anniversary dinner was well thought out with adorable decorations, napkins folded into heart shapes, votive candles, champagne, a special meal, and fire lanterns that we released into the sky. We did end up sailing south instead of towards the Similan and Surin Islands because there was a weather system in the area and David told us the journey there would be long and possibly rough. He always tried to find the most isolated spot for us to enjoy snorkeling, lunch, sunsets and our overnight anchorage. David has expressed his challenges with trying to convince the owner that the boat must be outfitted with a level of service now that it is being used for charters. New linens, towels, and stemware were purchased. Also, Sarah was brought on board as our hostess. I know that he is slowly trying to convince the owner about further improvements so that the boat is in its best shape ever and will provide further amenities, but the process is somewhat of a struggle for him because the owner is not familiar with chartering and doesn’t deem some things as “necessary.” We are a very chill family so we didn’t care if the crew wore their uniforms and we told them so. We didn’t require ‘white glove service’, that’s not what we’re about. We had a friendly relationship with the crew and have been in touch several times since our time together ended. Was it the most outfitted or service oriented yacht we have been on? No. But for a friendly, casual adventure that was a great fit for our family, it was perfect and the crew was a significant part of making it so even without some of the things we had on board with other charters. We did end up motoring quite a bit but that was no fault of David’s, just the luck of the draw of having a weather system in the area. He always attempted to harness the wind and turn off the engine whenever possible, and our comfort was of upmost importance to him. Our family will always hold special memories of this trip in our hearts and minds… we are grateful that we were able to be together in a beautiful part of the world, aboard yacht SEVEN with our fantastic crew! Thanks for your help in making it a reality for us! - Sailing Yacht SEVEN / Thailand / December 31, 2017 – 7 January

Trina, Regarding our cruise and Sorana this is what I can give you as feedback: we had ok weather with the sky (some rains and grey skies sometimes) but this was OK and expected, but we had quite unusual (moderately) strong winds - especially when cruising between the islands of course and the fly bridge on Sorana did not help the global balance of the boat both while cruising and sometimes while mooring... we had already experienced 2 or 3 times Princess boats and had a better memory of stability... a catamaran is much more stable of course especially while mooring, and due to these winds we could almost not enjoy the fly bridge even when mooring. Regarding the boat itself: not brand new but very well maintained, large master and vip cabin, so perfect for a family of 4 (only our 14yo younger son had the small twin cabin but he did not complain too much!!!). Great crew - Jean Marc (the captain) knows the region very well and the boat perfectly since he is responsible for it all year long. Marie (cook/maid/hostess) knows also both the region and the boat very well since she works on a yearly basis on the boat too, she is very efficient at everything (maid, assistant for the captain and cook). They were both very flexible about everything (itinerary was not optimal because we had to cruise North couple of times but Jean Marc was flexible about it), Marie could prepare us a short notice dinner for 6 people (friends of the other boat), and we could host a 14 people cocktail + snacks also that thrilled our guests - her food was great from the start to the end (I came back with at least 4-5 extra pounds...) As a result I left them the APA balance + extra tip - they looked very happy about it. If you have any other specific questions, then feel free to ask. Yacht MUSTIQUE / December

Hi Trina, we had a great time. It was the first trip for that boat coming out of the yard so there were some hiccups with water leaking and the TV working properly, but all in all, the crew did a great job. Jordan is a great young captain and has assembled a nice team. The food was good and healthy which is what I requested. My expectations were met and I would recommend them to a friend if I had the chance. - Yacht PURA VIDA / St Barth’s / December

Trina: Our charter aboard Whispers II was an unqualified success. Not only did Whispers II meet my expectations, but Noel and Patricia were exceptional. A bit of research on boats and trust in the charter company can be, to a significant degree, determined on line. But the crew comes with the boat, and there’s nothing much one can do in that regard. That only makes their performance that much more special to us. It did rain more often that my recollection, but that was about it. Indeed, I had expected significantly more traffic since my last Grenadines trip 9 years ago, specially coupled with the unfortunate destruction further north. But we had several anchorages all to our self, and other shared others with less than a ½ dozen boats. And it would be less than fair not to thank you for your almost instant availability, sound advice and prompt answers to issues not immediately at hand. I’m not sure when or exactly in what manner we might do this again, but if so my first and only call will be to Charter World. Thanks. Yacht WHISPERS II / Grenadines / December

Hi Amanda, Thank you so much for checking in yes we are finally on board. The crew is really nice, they all are very lovely. You were right both the chef and Tom are great in their own ways. Tonight even though I was full I kept eating cuz the food was so delicious. The only complaint we have is, as you already know, the weather, but after what happened to the Caribbean with the Hurricanes I guess we shouldn't complain much. Hope all is great with you and talk soon, - M/Y BLUE VISION / Ibiza & Balearics, Spain / September 8-15
