We wanted to express our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible experience aboard "No Shortcuts"! From the moment we set sail, it was clear that we were in the hands of a truly remarkable team!

Alex, Quintin, Kat and Tarryn went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our journey was nothing short of extraordinary! From the wonderful tender excursions overseen by Alex; to the delicious gourmet meals prepared by Quintin; to Kat's impeccable service and attention to detail; to Tarryn's infectious smile and can-do attitude, each of you contributed to making our time onboard unforgettable!

Captain Conrad, your leadership and attention to detail made us feel safe and at ease throughout our voyage. We appreciate the care with which you and your crew handled every task, from navigating the waters to ensure our interactions with the local wildlife were both enjoyable and respectful.

Thank you for creating such a magical memory for us! From watching the masters, to feeding the pigs, sharks and iguanas, every moment was filled with laughter and joy. We will cherish these memories for years to come!
