From the moment we met we knew we were in capable hands. We are so impressed with your confidence, competence and professionalism. We loved every stop - like waking up on Christmas Day! Stella, you were always at the ready to answer our questions and tote us where we wanted. And Iona, we’ve never been so delighted by mealtime. Your skills in the kitchen were out of this world! Our bellies will be grateful forever!

To you both - a dynamic duo - capable, confident and so very IMPRESSIVE.

Our next trip will only require two things - STELLA & IONA

December 2023
We are so appreciative of the care you planned and executed our holiday adventure with. The table settings were extraordinary, the moorings, just right, the route selected to ensure fair winds and following seas, the meals planned and executed to many dietary restrictions, with. Most importantly, you both bring a quiet confidence and smile, making even the most timid sailor comfortable. Thank you for that most. Our family trip was a huge success because of you. Your unique skills, talents and personalities made this year's present one we will cherish for years to come.
