July 10 to 20, 2026

Thank you for everything! We have had the best time and can’t even put into words how grateful we are to have met all the crew.

Ross, your food is the most amazing thing we have ever ate! I’ve never eaten better lamb than yours. Everything you cook is absolutely amazing and I don’t know how I’ll go back to eating normal food again.

Thank you B and Jewels for being so kind and making this experience the absolute best. Your table settings are so beautiful and you both are so amazing and kind. Shout out to Jules for putting up with X asking about the girl from your sister’s boat.

Juan and Div thank you for always helping with whatever we needed no matter what.

This has been the most amazing trip ever, so thank you all!! ❤️

Best wishes

What can we possibly say about this crew other than...wow!! From the moment we stepped onboard, each of you made this trip truly unforgettable!

Captain Conrad took us to the most breathtaking places to explore while keeping us laughing the entire time (despite constantly convincing us there was a shark nearby just for a laugh).

Ross served us some of the best food we’ve ever eaten with each meal somehow topping the last.

We loved getting to watch the England vs South Africa Rugby together (despite us losing).

The food, the laughs & the company were all exceptional!

Divan lived up to his fearless reputation, casually ripping double back flips off the top of the boat & grabbing sharks by the tail. He made every adventure more fun & kept us constantly laughing, whilst always ensuring to be on hand with the sea bobs, jet skis, snorkels, fishing gear, and every water sport/toy imaginable!

And then there are Jewel & B, you absolute stars. You both somehow managed to be everywhere at once, creating delicious drinks, anticipating everything we needed before we even knew we needed it & making every moment feel effortless yet so wonderful.

But more than that, you became friends and your humor, warmth & genuine care made us feel so comfortable that we never wanted to go. The way you helped make our celebrations for X’s amazing graduation so incredibly special is something we will never forget.

Guest Two:

Missing everyone already!

Exploring the Abacos with Captain Conrad was truly "amazing"!! The ship's owner took "No Shortcuts" with the remodel, beautiful and comfortable as well. Ross kept us eating spectacular meals while Jewel kept the drinks flowing. Marius and Kirsty were ever present to grab you something, take the invincible out or load you on a jet ski. When things are magical and going so well, a week passes way too quickly. Thanks all for your attention to detail and all our needs! Tumi especially appreciated the tummy rubs and fresh carrots. So sad to say goodbye...

NO SHORTCUTS

We wanted to express our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible experience aboard "No Shortcuts"! From the moment we set sail, it was clear that we were in the hands of a truly remarkable team!

Alex, Quintin, Kat and Tarryn went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our journey was nothing short of extraordinary! From the wonderful tender excursions overseen by Alex; to the delicious gourmet meals prepared by Quintin; to Kat's impeccable service and attention to detail; to Tarryn's infectious smile and can-do attitude, each of you contributed to making our time onboard unforgettable!

Captain Conrad, your leadership and attention to detail made us feel safe and at ease throughout our voyage. We appreciate the care with which you and your crew handled every task, from navigating the waters to ensure our interactions with the local wildlife were both enjoyable and respectful.

Thank you for creating such a magical memory for us! From watching the masters, to feeding the pigs, sharks and iguanas, every moment was filled with laughter and joy. 

We will cherish these memories for years to come!
