NO SURRENDER Yacht Description
Modern Riva, 110 feet. TASTY WAVES is a 110’ Riva Dolcevita motor yacht built in 2019, set up to sleep 11 guests in 5 cabins. The vibe is distinctly modern, with interior styling by Officina Italiana Design.
Outdoor life wins. The sundeck gives you proper hangout space with an exterior bar, plus alfresco dining on the main deck aft and the covered flybridge. There is also a hideaway jacuzzi on the bow that closes away when you want the foredeck back as seating. Simple.
Steady and quick. Stabilizers underway and at anchor help keep lunch and your phone camera steady, while a 23-knot cruising speed gets the day moving without dragging. Air conditioning and satellite TV are onboard for the off-water hours.
Toys for active groups. A 36ft Yellowfin tender changes the program fast, and the toy box is current: 2 SeaDoo jet-skis, 2 hydrofoil boards, 2 Seabobs with underwater cameras, a wakesurf board, plus snorkel gear and top-of-the-line fishing gear.
Cabins with logic. You get a full-beam master suite on the main deck, then below: three VIPs and a twin with a Pullman, each with its own ensuite.
Accommodation
NO SURRENDER is a 110'’ Riva Dolcevita model that offers an extremely quiet, fast and comfortable cruise with a distinctly modern but opulent style. Riva's choice in finishings is well executed; striped tropical rosewood, Patrona Frau leather, crystal, and chrome accents add a luxurious level of detail to the interior where it's normally overlooked. On the exterior, a metallic shark gray and black carbon fiber complement her sleek, svelte design.The expansive sundeck provides a great area for entertainment, offering lounge spaces and a wet bar. Alfresco dining is found on both the main deck aft and the covered flybridge. Another great feature on this vessel is the hideaway jacuzzi located on the bow which can be closed away from sight and used as a seating area, or opened up for use to truly enjoy la dolce vita!
NO SURRENDER tows a 37ft intrepid in addition to the Williams RIB, and carries some of the newest water toys on the market.

Reviews
First, Eric is a very coordinated and skilled Captain working so well with his crew.
Meg is a great Chief Stewardess and was helpful.
Ceara was so nice and a master First Mate - I apologize for disrespecting your command and I deeply regret it and have reflected on it. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me on this trip.
Logan helped patch me up and was very enjoyable to talk to.
Kennedy did such a good job making beds and gave me yummy candy. :)
Finally Chef your meals were fantastic and I don’t think I will have anything as good as you made in a while from now. Your career in cooking is so cool to me. I cook with my grandparents so I can learn for my future. I hope you make it far, best of luck!
Guest Two:
I want to thank all of the crew for being great and taking care of me for the past seven days.
This trip was one of the best experiences I have ever had, and all of you girls and guys have made it even better.
Thank you Chef for making delicious, exotic food and expanding my pallet of food.
Exploring the Exumas has been such a delight and beautiful. My favorite memory is when Kennedy took X and I on the jetski and going to Thunderball Cave. Thanks again!!
Guest Three:
We can’t thank you enough for all that you guys did for us! All of the crew were so kind and welcoming. The food was some of the best I have ever had and I want to say a huge thanks to the chef for working so hard and preparing us such amazing food.
You all worked so hard everyday to provide for us and keep us happy. This trip is one that I will never forget! My favorite part of the trip was definitely Pig Beach. I loved those pigs!
Thanks again for everything the crew did for us this past week.
Guest Four:
This trip was definitely one to remember, and one of the best experiences I’ve had. Every crew member was the best and really made me feel seend, and appreciated.
Kennedy was the GOAT on bedroom duty, and just an overall perfect help off and on the boat.
I definitely can’t forget the Chef - you really expanded my food palet, always making new and exciting dishes, and they never failed to make me amazed. Your talent is really something, and I bet everyone who will try your dishes in the future wull think the same thing.
Eric was the best Captain and leader I have ever seen with his incredible boat maneurreing skills, and always handling the problems the best way that he could.
Ceara, Meg and Logan, can’t write much more (end of page) but just know that you guys are up there with the rest of this amazing crew.
The experience that you and your client had working with the Captain
I enjoyed working with Eric and his crew. Nothing but trying their very hardest to make my clients trip the best.
Your clients’ experience with the crew
My client thought that they were all the very best and really appreciated them going the extra mile for them (a few were sea sick)
Favorite thing about the yacht
Loved the space and areas overall.
Chef & cuisine
They were very surprised by Fernando and thought he was excellent.
Working with the CA
Of course excellent.
Any highlights or “wow” moments from the charter
I think how hard the crew worked was surprising to them overall.
Thank you for a memorable Xmas for our whole family.
In rough seas and calm seas the crew made our trip an amazing experience.
We look forward to seeing you all again.
Next time will bring a easel for X and some carving wood!

Broker Feedback
Experience working with the Captain (pre- and during charter)
The communication with the Captain was excellent throughout. My client was very satisfied with how everything was organized ahead of the charter, and the preparation phase was smooth, clear, and professional. Overall, the Captain handled the charter very well and inspired confidence.
Client experience with the crew
I had a very demanding client, which can naturally be challenging at times. Overall, the client was very happy with the Captain. Feedback on the Chef was more neutral; the client described the food and cuisine as correct but did not provide specific details or particular complaints.
Working with the Chief Stewardess was, as always, a pleasure — she remains exceptional and extremely professional.
Highlights or “wow” moments from the charter
There was no specific standout “wow” moment reported, but the charter ran smoothly overall.
Welcomed us with a big smile.
Very knowledgeable about cruisingandthe boat, in general
Restructured the 5-day boat trip for best weather, traveled South to furthest island and then North for best weather
Worked well with crew and they all knew their responsibilities, like "all hands on deck" when approaching a new island and docking
Talked to us to ask us our preferences of places to see and explore
Just a very nice guy
Allen
We kept him busy with 5 teenage boys enjoying the boat toys, like Seabob, etc.
Kept an eye on the boys when in the water and gave them life jackets when need be
Kept the boat clean at all times and was constantly shining rails, etc.
Very pleasant and interesting life
Best part, he was using his drone to take pictures of outings and we didn't know it. The last night he shared them on the TV
Alexia
Seems to love her job.
Learned how we like our coffee and brought it to us without asking in the morning
Good bartender, could make any alcoholic drink we asked for
Every lunch and dinner there were different arrangements on the table, always beautiful
Learned all our names
It was Grammy's 75th BD celebration on boat. Both Alexia and Chloe went beyond to decorate with balloons and beautiful decorations for the night we celebrated. They even hung a BD banner on the back of the boat as we came in from a tour
Excellent waitress skills
Very pleasant and engaging
Chloe
Very mature for her age
Impressed with cleaning responsibilities, like ironing sheets on our bed every morning to make perfect. Morning and evening cleaning, straightening of rooms
Helped Alexia when needed with serving and decorating
Always pleasant and responsible
Helped Billy on boat tours and made sure we had adequate water/beer on boat tours
Ely
The food was excellent, 5 star. Every night a meat and a fish and delicious sides
Ask us what we wanted for breakfast and served it at different times as our group woke up
Made a delicious birthday cake for my 75th BD celebration
Always available for "all hands on deck"
Very engagingand agreeable to share recipes
All in all we felt like we had made new friends. They were all excellent and we are highly recommending that crew to our friends and neighbors who ask about our trip to Bahamas
