| GUESTS COMMENTS | | August 13-20 2009 BVI | CHARTER REVIEW OF TEAM AND VESSEL
Name: Mr. O.
Yacht: S/V Amazing Grace
Date: August 13-20, 2009
Comment on the comfort onboard Amazing Grace: The boat was very comfortable. We were a family with two boys. Each boy had their own berth and we had one also. Beds and bedding were comfortable. Meals were generally outside where there was ample room for 6-8; one night we ate inside and again was great – lots of room for everyone. AC needed at night due to extreme heat and captain very happy to run it.
Comment on the condition of Amazing Grace: The boat is very new and is in great condition. The captain and mate take pride in keeping it shipshape.
Comment on the cleanliness of Amazing Grace: The boat was very clean. The captain made sure that we knew to clean with the outside shower before coming in to minimize tracking of sand and salt water. They kept all areas of the boat clean – the galley, heads (cleaned daily), berths (beds made daily), cockpit area, etc.
Comment on the congeniality of the Captain and crew: Captain and mate very friendly and welcoming. They enjoy what they are doing and want others to enjoy themselves also. The mate spent several hours with our boys (11 and 16) teaching and being taught knots. They were always willing to act on any request and had lots of suggestions of things to do in the Exumas.
Comment on the service of the Captain and crew: Service was great. Refreshments were offered constantly, snacks were prepared prior to meals, towels were ready when coming out of the water, gear hung up and stowed for us, etc.
Comment on the fun aspect of the Captain and crew: We had a lot of fun with both. They both have a good sense of humor and enjoyed engaging us.
Comment on the expertise of the Captain and crew: Both are experts in what they do. We were very confident in their knowledge, whether it was sailing, teaching our kids, snorkeling, navigating, anchoring, etc. The captain has sailed in the Exuma for many years and knows a lot of great spots to visit, where great reefs are for snorkeling, etc.
Comment on the quality of your meals: Meals were wonderful. The captain prepares all the meals and we enjoyed them all. There was a wide variety, including fresh seafood a couple of nights. There was never a shortage of food.
Comment on the presentation of your meals: Meals were presented well, laid out nicely on the plates. There was often a theme. For example, one meal was a spicy island type meal with some typical Bahamian and Jamaican dishes. One night we had sashimi with pickled ginger and wasabi, and chopsticks were provided. One memorable breakfast was French toast made with bread purchased by a local woman on Staneil Cay, served with fruit and a delicious custard, all very nicely presented on the plate.
Would you charter this yacht again? YES
