The client has let me know that they had a fabulous stay on board: great crew -friendly and super helpful; stunning attention to little details (picked up and appreciated by wife and all the girls); chef was fantastic every day. Originally the clients had planned to go out for dinner etc more than they did, but the food was so good they hardly went elsewhere. My clients appreciated it was a lot of work for the chef who yet remained very cheerful to the end. Gerard and family have been chartering with me for the last 12 years and they were delighted - everything from start to finish was first class.
On my behalf - Kirill was super helpful and always ready to assist.
