The captain was an absolute professional \u2014 deeply knowledgeable about the vessel and with the kind of calm, seasoned experience that instantly puts you at ease on the water. We always felt safe and in expert hands. Kris, our chef, was a true highlight of the trip. Every single day brought something new and delicious \u2014 breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all thoughtfully prepared and genuinely impressive. Cooking for 8 people in a boat kitchen and keeping the menu varied and exciting every day is no small feat. Hats off! Overall, a wonderful experience made special by a fantastic crew. Highly recommend!&#8221;<\/em><br>&#8211;<em>ChereCheryl.

Chef Kris was our creative Chef. Rafik ensured we arrived safely at every destination (Tobago Cays, St. Vincent, St. Lucia, Bequia) and we had Planteur cocktails, homemade by Kris, to enjoy during sunrise. I would strongly recommend a week on a catamaran like we did\u2014all well organized, and a great opportunity to meet new people from all over the world and see the most beautiful nature around Martinique.&#8221;<\/em><br>&#8211;<em>Sylvia J.
