Elysian Yacht Charter
When you step aboard the award-winning Bali 5.4 catamaran, Elysian, you enter a world of unparalleled luxury and adventure. This stunning vessel, celebrated as “Multihull of the Year,” debuted in 2019 with a revolutionary design that redefines sailing. With its innovative open-plan layout and seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces, Elysian feels less like a traditional yacht and more like an elegant, floating sanctuary.
Luxury Features
Elysian’s standout feature is the signature “Bali garage door,” an ingenious design element that transforms the aft wall into a wide-open expanse, providing breathtaking, panoramic views of the Caribbean. This retractable wall invites the refreshing ocean breeze into the yacht, creating the perfect ambiance for both casual lounging and elegant al fresco dining. The expansive foredeck, free of the traditional trampoline, is reimagined as a plush sunbathing haven, complete with inviting cushions that beckon you to soak in the tropical sunshine. For those who seek the ultimate vantage point, the flybridge offers a chic seating area ideal for sunset cocktails, as well as an additional sunbathing space to take in stunning island vistas.
Onboard Experience
Every detail aboard Elysian has been thoughtfully curated to elevate your experience. The spacious salon flows seamlessly into the outdoor areas, creating an airy, open atmosphere. A full-sized door connects the foredeck lounge directly to the salon, enhancing the ease of movement throughout the yacht. The interior decor exudes understated elegance, with plush linens, sumptuous throws, and refined tableware that add a touch of sophistication to every meal. Elysian’s state-of-the-art kitchen is fully equipped with top-tier appliances and every accessory imaginable, allowing the onboard chef to craft culinary masterpieces that cater to your every craving.
Adventure and Relaxation
For guests who crave excitement, Elysian offers an impressive array of water toys designed to make every day unforgettable. Glide beneath the waves with two underwater scooters or experience the thrill of a wakeboard ride. Explore crystal-clear waters with snorkeling gear, paddleboards, or a subwing for an exhilarating aquatic adventure. The 10-foot floating dock is perfect for lounging or launching your next water activity. After a day of exploration, unwind with a refreshing drink from the fully stocked bar, personalized to your preferences.
Accommodations
Elysian accommodates up to eight guests in luxurious comfort, featuring three spacious queen cabins and an opulent master suite for those who desire extra space. Each cabin is designed for restful serenity, with plush bedding and eco-friendly, Caribbean-made toiletries that enhance your stay. The yacht’s modern amenities, including air conditioning, a water maker, and solar panels, ensure a comfortable, sustainable experience. Additional onboard features such as an ice maker, espresso machine, Bluetooth-enabled sound system, and a smart TV in the salon offer the perfect blend of convenience and entertainment.

Liam Wilson
Born and raised in Western Australia, Liam grew up racing dinghies with his dad before going on to work in surveying and mine engineering. Now a professional captain and ASA-certified sailing instructor, Liam brings a mix of calm confidence, teaching ability, and adventures spirit to every charter.
With years of experience captaining yachts across both the Caribbean and Mediterranean, Liam has an exceptional ability to read the room and create an itinerary built for each group matching their energy, from chilled out swims and sunset sails to action packed days of island hopping, snorkel safaris, and dinghy explorations.
He enjoys sharing his passion with guests, whether that means helping curious sailors get behind the helm, revealing hidden local gems, flying the drone at golden hour, or finding a quiet anchorage for a starlit dinner.
When he’s not onboard, Liam is often off exploring new corners of the world, staying active with hikes or enjoying eFoil sessions. Occasionally jumping at the chance to join into a local regatta too!

Crew Review - June 2025
What an amazing week we have had! After doing this trip many times bareboating with friends we are so happy to share this experience with our three children. We could not have chosen a better crew!
Liam’s experience and knowledge is incredible and made our week so much better than we could imagine!
Kelsey’s food was not only beautifully plated - every time, but the taste was delicious! So creative and unbelievable that you can create all of it on a boat! Thank you for accommodating our different likes!
Along with the many cuisine favors made, the creative drinks were great!
Thank you! Take Care!
Crew Review - May 2025
This is our 3rd week spent on a boat in the Virgin Islands. As a result, I feel that we are in a good place to compare this trip to prior experiences. Thank you for your talent, your experience, your kindness, your friendship. Spending time on a boat for a week is an intimate experience. You guys are truly awesome. Liam’s sailing and boating skills were superb. Kelsey - your culinary talents are phenomenal. We even gave your names to people we met on Necker Island for a future visit to the BVI.
We are so fortunate to have gotten you guys as our crew. You helped turn a vacation into a life experience. We hope to travel with you guys again in the future!!!
Health and happiness and safe travels.
Crew Review - April 2025
With this being our first ever sailing experience, we weren’t sure what to expect but we now have a new standard for travel thanks to the dynamic duo - Liam and Kelsey!
Our time in the BVIs could not have gone any smoother without Liam’s expertise and knowledge of the region. We hiked, snorkeled with turtles, sting rays, and star fish, visited local beach bars, and relaxed in the Caribbean sun. We’re forever grateful and impressed by his drone footage and ability to maneuver through the crowds for the best anchor spot.
Chef Kelsey hit the ball out of the park with each and every meal that she made. She catered to each of our palates with ease. Olive oil and citrus cake, Mediterranean lamb and chicken, shakshuka, mahi tacos and peanut butter pie were among our favorites. The combination of flavors and textures showed her true skill and passion for crafting incredible meals.
Our only hope is that they visit us in Nevada to reciprocate their genuine hospitality while we were with them!
March 2025
Wow! This vacation far exceeded our expectations! From Nicole’s incredible cooking to Jonah’s endless willingness to make it so fun for the kids, it was perfection. Every day was new and exciting! Y’all executed the tandem vacation perfectly. You two were voted best crew by the group! A few favorite memories from the Everetts:
Double tubing with Griffin and Rawson and the grill out thanks for making my birthday special.
Connecting boats with all of our friends and all the amazing food.
Waking up on Weston’s b-day and seeing all of the fun decorations. The delicious morning caramel lattes!
The food, the playlists, the expert “captaining” - could not have been better. You two are A+!!
February 2025
We just spent a week on the Elysian with Jonah and Nicole in the BVI. We are a family of four with two children – 12 and 16. The week surpassed all expectations and was frankly as good as it gets. The boat is in very good shape, well looked after and superbly kitted out in good taste and with great toys for both in (subwing, scooters etc.) and out (cinema screen etc.) of the water. However, a week on a boat is made or broken by the team onboard. Both Jonah and Nicole were faultless. Indeed, they are an amazing double act: professional and as engaged (or not) as we wanted them to be on our holiday. All-in great company. Jonah put great thought into where to dock each night, how to evade the weather and generally give us a great sailing experience. The food was also phenomenal and the possibly the highlight of the week. It did not stop coming, was always freshly made and no one meal was the same. Nicole has a real talent in the kitchen and somehow managed to provide for us despite the challenge of cooking in the galley and providing for our constantly ravenous children. I cannot recommend the two of them enough and we will certainly try to have another spell with them in the future. A lovely couple with an unusually professional attitude mixed with good charm and excellent humour.

Thank you for such a memorable, unique, relaxing trip. Everything was beyond amazing - the views, the delicious food, the Baths, paddle boarding, coffee walks on the white sand beaches, massages, bars, restaurants - literally everything was perfect. The greatest indulgence of all was SEVEN whole nights or blissful, uninterrupted SLEEP (+naps!). Although we missed our babies dearly, it was awesome to be able to get some much needed R&R. We can’t wait to bring the kids when they are older. This has been the trip of a lifetime! We are so grateful.
January 2025
We had an amazing time with you this week. We wouldn’t have asked for a better crew. The for was amazing, and Nicole’s smile always brightened our day. Jonah - you were an amazing captain and we thank you for tolerating our kids! Best vacation ever.
December 2024
What a fabulous week! Thank you, thank you so much for helping our family have an amazing Christmas week! Thank you for making every request seem like no big deal! You were both so friendly and knowledgeable and accommodating. Nicole, the food was phenomenal - you have definitely mastered your craft! Jonah, from bartender to barista to chauffeur, your skills are also excellent and we always felt safe. And you were great with the boys! Steve and I agree you are the best crew we’ve had in our 3 BVI expereiences!
December 2024
As first timers, we weren’t sure what to expect from this experience, but our most far-fetched ideas were met and exceeded. Through whatever set of happenstances we landed here with you for one glorious week of perfect weather, perfect sailing and oh so perfect dining. Endless thanks for putting this vacation completely over the top. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding - we wish you great happiness in your future as we’ll always remember your part in celebrating our 40th.

We had an absolutely fabulous time on the Elysian with Orlagh and Cassie! Orlagh's knowledge of the area (including the history) was phenomenal which made for a lovely itinerary. Every place we stopped for the day/night had beautiful views, wonderful water activities, fun bars, and easy access to shore. The boat was very comfortable and both Cassie and Orlagh made it even more so with the hospitality they provided. Cassie's gluten free cuisine was the best that we've ever had. My daughter Stella, who has celiac disease, commented that this was the first time since she was diagnosed that she could sit down for every meal and not have to strategize around what she could or could not eat. The food was amazing!
Orlagh is the perfect blend of professional and fun
Orlagh is the main reason I came back for a second week. She is the perfect blend of
professional and fun. She is incredibly knowledgeable regarding sailing and has unique and personal stories about everywhere we go and everything we see. She also knows how to have fun and gives the best recommendations on day activities we should participate in because she always has the best relationships with locals, and knows what fits for her guests. I could literally write about Orlagh singing her praises forever, but you get the gist.
She was so kind and helpful
She was so kind, helpful and even cleaned up, not leaving the chef having to do everything!
Orlah was everything I was hoping for and more
Orlah was everything I was hoping for and more!! She was super informative, kept us updated with activities and places to go. She sailed the boat beautifully and always offered up good vibes.
Orlagh was absolutely amazing
Orlagh was absolutely amazing!! She kept us safe and was always on top of the upcoming event information. She even took us to an extra little coral adventure. We had a blast hanging with her at the dinners. Thank you!! Would love to do a future week with Orlagh.
Orlagh is the absolute best!
Orlagh is the absolute best!
So intelligent, sweet, and goes above and beyond.
BE LIKE ORLAGH
Orlagh was an amazing skipper
Orlagh was an amazing skipper, kept the yacht running smoothly and us in sync with the squad. Could not have asked for a better person to guide us through this journey!
Our captain was tremendous
We're having a great time. Our captain was tremendous. I wanted to mention to you that she was absolutely wonderful knowledgeable, and an excellent guide and teacher. Thank you again I just wanted to make sure that we let you know that we have the highest recommendations for our captain Orlagh!! Wonderful!!
Our was so beautiful and special
Our skipper Orlagh was the absolute best! Not only did she make us feel safe and comfortable on the boat, but she helped to plan amazing day excursions and get us the best restaurant and club reservations. She made us laugh and brought positivity to our trip that was so beautiful and special.
Orlagh was the best
Orlagh was the best, she made us feel welcome and was really friendly and professional. I couldn't imagine a better leader for our boat.
There will be little that can top this trip
We truly enjoyed having Jacob Beman as our Captain during our charter in the BVI. Jacob was a true professional, and handled the catamaran with skill above and beyond what I have seen on other trips.
Jacob was always up early starting coffee and performing his captain duties, and he even helped our chef with some of the meals & her responsibilities.
He was well versed in first aid, as one day I had a small cut on my ankle and he cleaned and bandaged it for me. We were quite impressed during our trip because he always sailed using the sails vs. using the motor, which may have been because of the great weather we had, but regardless, we enjoyed our time on the yacht tremendously.
Alex is a ridiculously good chef, and kept us on track and informed throughout our stay, and made every person on board feel special. She is an amazing person and part of an excellent overall team.
We felt in such good hands
Jacob was happy to answer questions and teach those that wanted to learn more about sailing.
I was so impressed by his professionalism, knowledge of the islands, and basically everything about the water. Jacob was always smiling, and he knew just where to take us to snorkel and things to tell us to look out for.
He was happy to take us to the islands in the dingy, and really made our trip so special. We enjoyed having Jacob for our charter, he is quite an impressive captain.
Alex was beyond words amazing!!
Besides being a phenomenal person, she is a gourmet chef!! She took incredible care of each one of us, prepared incredible meals, and made the entire experience perfection!!
She handled our every need, want and just made every moment fabulous!
We were blown away with how fun and beautiful everything was
There aren’t enough words to say how amazing Alex was! We wouldn’t recommend a yacht trip to anyone if Alex isn’t the chef.
I couldn’t believe how delicious all of the meals were. She made sure we were ready and on time for all events. I can’t imagine this trip without her!
Jacob is professional, smart, kind, witty and I highly recommend him without hesitation.
I would not hesitate to charter with this team again, and I plan to next year!!
Trip of a Lifetime
"It's hard to find the words to describe how our experience was with Sailing Synergy. The beauty of the islands, the love and grace with Alex and Jacob and the majesty of this incredible boat are second to none. This was a trip of a lifetime that will never be forgotten. Thank you for the memories, Synergy."

"Alex and Jacob what a fine pair,
You hauled our asses around with care.

We got loud and rowdy while staying on our feet
You kept cooking and Sailing not missing a beat.
From the snorkeling to the swimming to the tuna fishing
The trip was outstanding and the next cruise has us wishing.
I know that the trip can't be extended
By the crews best for the gang from the Midwest.
I know it can't happen this time but the memories will last a lifetime.

Alex and Jacob made the trip EXCEPTIONAL
"This trip was a family vacation to celebrate Cam's graduation. He picked it and we were so excited to experience "salt life" for the first time! What an unbelievable trip! We were spoiled from the moment we got onboard until the last minute. Alex's food is 1st class on every level- presentation, variety, and most of all TASTE! we cheered everytime she announced that a meal was ready (and took pictures of everything)! Captain Jacob was the best captain in the BVI USVI and beyond! He had mad skills as a captain and led us onshore to some superb spots for viewing and drinking. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Alex and Jacob , they are true professionals. Alex and Jacob made this trip EXCEPTIONAL and we feel so lucky to be in their care for the best 8days. Reality will be tough to return to after this dreamy, scenic, gourmet and laughter filled trip."

CAPTAIN
Liam Wilson
Born and raised in Western Australia, Liam grew up racing dinghies with his dad before going on to work in surveying and mine engineering. Now a professional captain and ASA-certified sailing instructor, Liam brings a mix of calm confidence, teaching ability, and adventures spirit to every charter.
With years of experience captaining yachts across both the Caribbean and Mediterranean, Liam has an exceptional ability to read the room and create an itinerary built for each group matching their energy, from chilled out swims and sunset sails to action packed days of island hopping, snorkel safaris, and dinghy explorations.
He enjoys sharing his passion with guests, whether that means helping curious sailors get behind the helm, revealing hidden local gems, flying the drone at golden hour, or finding a quiet anchorage for a starlit dinner.
When he’s not onboard, Liam is often off exploring new corners of the world, staying active with hikes or enjoying eFoil sessions. Occasionally jumping at the chance to join into a local regatta too!

Guest Reviews
Crew Review - June 2025
What an amazing week we have had! After doing this trip many times bareboating with friends we are so happy to share this experience with our three children. We could not have chosen a better crew!
Liam’s experience and knowledge is incredible and made our week so much better than we could imagine!
Kelsey’s food was not only beautifully plated - every time, but the taste was delicious! So creative and unbelievable that you can create all of it on a boat! Thank you for accommodating our different likes!
Along with the many cuisine favors made, the creative drinks were great!
Thank you! Take Care!
Crew Review - May 2025
This is our 3rd week spent on a boat in the Virgin Islands. As a result, I feel that we are in a good place to compare this trip to prior experiences. Thank you for your talent, your experience, your kindness, your friendship. Spending time on a boat for a week is an intimate experience. You guys are truly awesome. Liam’s sailing and boating skills were superb. Kelsey - your culinary talents are phenomenal. We even gave your names to people we met on Necker Island for a future visit to the BVI.
We are so fortunate to have gotten you guys as our crew. You helped turn a vacation into a life experience. We hope to travel with you guys again in the future!!!
Health and happiness and safe travels.
Crew Review - April 2025
With this being our first ever sailing experience, we weren’t sure what to expect but we now have a new standard for travel thanks to the dynamic duo - Liam and Kelsey!
Our time in the BVIs could not have gone any smoother without Liam’s expertise and knowledge of the region. We hiked, snorkeled with turtles, sting rays, and star fish, visited local beach bars, and relaxed in the Caribbean sun. We’re forever grateful and impressed by his drone footage and ability to maneuver through the crowds for the best anchor spot.
Chef Kelsey hit the ball out of the park with each and every meal that she made. She catered to each of our palates with ease. Olive oil and citrus cake, Mediterranean lamb and chicken, shakshuka, mahi tacos and peanut butter pie were among our favorites. The combination of flavors and textures showed her true skill and passion for crafting incredible meals.
Our only hope is that they visit us in Nevada to reciprocate their genuine hospitality while we were with them!
March 2025
Wow! This vacation far exceeded our expectations! From Nicole’s incredible cooking to Jonah’s endless willingness to make it so fun for the kids, it was perfection. Every day was new and exciting! Y’all executed the tandem vacation perfectly. You two were voted best crew by the group! A few favorite memories from the Everetts:
Double tubing with Griffin and Rawson and the grill out thanks for making my birthday special.
Connecting boats with all of our friends and all the amazing food.
Waking up on Weston’s b-day and seeing all of the fun decorations. The delicious morning caramel lattes!
The food, the playlists, the expert “captaining” - could not have been better. You two are A+!!
February 2025
We just spent a week on the Elysian with Jonah and Nicole in the BVI. We are a family of four with two children – 12 and 16. The week surpassed all expectations and was frankly as good as it gets. The boat is in very good shape, well looked after and superbly kitted out in good taste and with great toys for both in (subwing, scooters etc.) and out (cinema screen etc.) of the water. However, a week on a boat is made or broken by the team onboard. Both Jonah and Nicole were faultless. Indeed, they are an amazing double act: professional and as engaged (or not) as we wanted them to be on our holiday. All-in great company. Jonah put great thought into where to dock each night, how to evade the weather and generally give us a great sailing experience. The food was also phenomenal and the possibly the highlight of the week. It did not stop coming, was always freshly made and no one meal was the same. Nicole has a real talent in the kitchen and somehow managed to provide for us despite the challenge of cooking in the galley and providing for our constantly ravenous children. I cannot recommend the two of them enough and we will certainly try to have another spell with them in the future. A lovely couple with an unusually professional attitude mixed with good charm and excellent humour.
January 2025
Thank you for such a memorable, unique, relaxing trip. Everything was beyond amazing - the views, the delicious food, the Baths, paddle boarding, coffee walks on the white sand beaches, massages, bars, restaurants - literally everything was perfect. The greatest indulgence of all was SEVEN whole nights or blissful, uninterrupted SLEEP (+naps!). Although we missed our babies dearly, it was awesome to be able to get some much needed R&R. We can’t wait to bring the kids when they are older. This has been the trip of a lifetime! We are so grateful.
January 2025
We had an amazing time with you this week. We wouldn’t have asked for a better crew. The for was amazing, and Nicole’s smile always brightened our day. Jonah - you were an amazing captain and we thank you for tolerating our kids! Best vacation ever.
December 2024
What a fabulous week! Thank you, thank you so much for helping our family have an amazing Christmas week! Thank you for making every request seem like no big deal! You were both so friendly and knowledgeable and accommodating. Nicole, the food was phenomenal - you have definitely mastered your craft! Jonah, from bartender to barista to chauffeur, your skills are also excellent and we always felt safe. And you were great with the boys! Steve and I agree you are the best crew we’ve had in our 3 BVI expereiences!
December 2024
As first timers, we weren’t sure what to expect from this experience, but our most far-fetched ideas were met and exceeded. Through whatever set of happenstances we landed here with you for one glorious week of perfect weather, perfect sailing and oh so perfect dining. Endless thanks for putting this vacation completely over the top. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding - we wish you great happiness in your future as we’ll always remember your part in celebrating our 40th.
January 2024
We had an absolutely fabulous time on the Elysian with Orlagh and Cassie! Orlagh's knowledge of the area (including the history) was phenomenal which made for a lovely itinerary. Every place we stopped for the day/night had beautiful views, wonderful water activities, fun bars, and easy access to shore. The boat was very comfortable and both Cassie and Orlagh made it even more so with the hospitality they provided. Cassie's gluten free cuisine was the best that we've ever had. My daughter Stella, who has celiac disease, commented that this was the first time since she was diagnosed that she could sit down for every meal and not have to strategize around what she could or could not eat. The food was amazing!
Orlagh is the perfect blend of professional and fun
Orlagh is the main reason I came back for a second week. She is the perfect blend of
professional and fun. She is incredibly knowledgeable regarding sailing and has unique and personal stories about everywhere we go and everything we see. She also knows how to have fun and gives the best recommendations on day activities we should participate in because she always has the best relationships with locals, and knows what fits for her guests. I could literally write about Orlagh singing her praises forever, but you get the gist.
She was so kind and helpful
She was so kind, helpful and even cleaned up, not leaving the chef having to do everything!
Orlah was everything I was hoping for and more
Orlah was everything I was hoping for and more!! She was super informative, kept us updated with activities and places to go. She sailed the boat beautifully and always offered up good vibes.
Orlagh was absolutely amazing
Orlagh was absolutely amazing!! She kept us safe and was always on top of the upcoming event information. She even took us to an extra little coral adventure. We had a blast hanging with her at the dinners. Thank you!! Would love to do a future week with Orlagh.
Orlagh is the absolute best!
Orlagh is the absolute best!
So intelligent, sweet, and goes above and beyond.
BE LIKE ORLAGH
Orlagh was an amazing skipper
Orlagh was an amazing skipper, kept the yacht running smoothly and us in sync with the squad. Could not have asked for a better person to guide us through this journey!
Our captain was tremendous
We're having a great time. Our captain was tremendous. I wanted to mention to you that she was absolutely wonderful knowledgeable, and an excellent guide and teacher. Thank you again I just wanted to make sure that we let you know that we have the highest recommendations for our captain Orlagh!! Wonderful!!
Our was so beautiful and special
Our skipper Orlagh was the absolute best! Not only did she make us feel safe and comfortable on the boat, but she helped to plan amazing day excursions and get us the best restaurant and club reservations. She made us laugh and brought positivity to our trip that was so beautiful and special.
Orlagh was the best
Orlagh was the best, she made us feel welcome and was really friendly and professional. I couldn't imagine a better leader for our boat.
There will be little that can top this trip
We truly enjoyed having Jacob Beman as our Captain during our charter in the BVI. Jacob was a true professional, and handled the catamaran with skill above and beyond what I have seen on other trips.
Jacob was always up early starting coffee and performing his captain duties, and he even helped our chef with some of the meals & her responsibilities.
He was well versed in first aid, as one day I had a small cut on my ankle and he cleaned and bandaged it for me. We were quite impressed during our trip because he always sailed using the sails vs. using the motor, which may have been because of the great weather we had, but regardless, we enjoyed our time on the yacht tremendously.
Alex is a ridiculously good chef, and kept us on track and informed throughout our stay, and made every person on board feel special. She is an amazing person and part of an excellent overall team.
We felt in such good hands
Jacob was happy to answer questions and teach those that wanted to learn more about sailing.
I was so impressed by his professionalism, knowledge of the islands, and basically everything about the water. Jacob was always smiling, and he knew just where to take us to snorkel and things to tell us to look out for.
He was happy to take us to the islands in the dingy, and really made our trip so special. We enjoyed having Jacob for our charter, he is quite an impressive captain.
Alex was beyond words amazing!!
Besides being a phenomenal person, she is a gourmet chef!! She took incredible care of each one of us, prepared incredible meals, and made the entire experience perfection!!
She handled our every need, want and just made every moment fabulous!
We were blown away with how fun and beautiful everything was
There aren’t enough words to say how amazing Alex was! We wouldn’t recommend a yacht trip to anyone if Alex isn’t the chef.
I couldn’t believe how delicious all of the meals were. She made sure we were ready and on time for all events. I can’t imagine this trip without her!
Jacob is professional, smart, kind, witty and I highly recommend him without hesitation.
I would not hesitate to charter with this team again, and I plan to next year!!
Trip of a Lifetime
"It's hard to find the words to describe how our experience was with Sailing Synergy. The beauty of the islands, the love and grace with Alex and Jacob and the majesty of this incredible boat are second to none. This was a trip of a lifetime that will never be forgotten. Thank you for the memories, Synergy."

Alex next time you want to hone those manual stick shift skills give us a call! Hope our paths again soon!"

The trip was outstanding!
"Alex and Jacob what a fine pair,
You hauled our asses around with care.
We were watered and fed and
You both catered to us well til we went to bed.
We got loud and rowdy while staying on our feet
You kept cooking and Sailing not missing a beat.
From the snorkeling to the swimming to the tuna fishing
The trip was outstanding and the next cruise has us wishing.
I know that the trip can't be extended
By the crews best for the gang from the Midwest.
I know it can't happen this time but the memories will last a lifetime.
Thanks again from the St Louis crew"

Alex and Jacob made the trip EXCEPTIONAL
"This trip was a family vacation to celebrate Cam's graduation. He picked it and we were so excited to experience "salt life" for the first time! What an unbelievable trip! We were spoiled from the moment we got onboard until the last minute. Alex's food is 1st class on every level- presentation, variety, and most of all TASTE! we cheered everytime she announced that a meal was ready (and took pictures of everything)! Captain Jacob was the best captain in the BVI USVI and beyond! He had mad skills as a captain and led us onshore to some superb spots for viewing and drinking. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Alex and Jacob , they are true professionals. Alex and Jacob made this trip EXCEPTIONAL and we feel so lucky to be in their care for the best 8days. Reality will be tough to return to after this dreamy, scenic, gourmet and laughter filled trip."
