January 2025 BVI Charter

Katie and Eben Incredible, Epic, and Unforgettable! What a week! Thank you both for all you did. Katie you really are a talented and creative chef. Your meals are Michelin star quality in our opinion. The daily bread and “table” bacon were delicious :). Eben, you are such a knowledgable and professional captain and guide. We know you were probably meant to be a pirate. You picked the perfect spots to anchor, and the snorkeling and diving sites were fantastic. The sailing was relaxing,.
