Reviews
He really felt your enthusiasm and it made them enjoy the trip that much more. He feels that he made friends on this trip and noted he hopes to have you down to the “ranch” for some hunting Toby!
They were amazed at how you all could anticipate what they needed and had it ready for them before they even asked.
He loved the beach trips and noted that he now understands why a crew of 9 is really necessary as everyone was busy all the time, just taking care of them in one way or another. He REALLY appreciated how your guys took care of his Dad. He said I think they were watching as any time my Dad got close to the steps, two guys were right there to help him with smiles and made his Dad feel ok to be “helped”.
They loved all the food and said they finally had to stop the chef from preparing appetizers twice a day as they were getting “fattened” up.
Overall it was just perfect for them and he advises he would gladly recommend the yacht and this crew to ANYONE.
Thank you again for taking such good care of <Mr. Client> and his family. I think we may see them again.
