The crew of four aboard the Sunreef 80 luxury crewed power catamaran, Blessed, knocked it out of the park for our clients’ group of 8 crewed yacht charter vacation in the Virgin Islands. When asked for feedback about their charter, our clients responded with, “We had the time of our lives.”
The guests, a party of four couples, had this to say about the Blessed crew; “Captain Tim’s knowledge of the Virgin Islands and ‘what to do’s’ was a great help. Julie is an exceptional chef. All 8 guests, one with special diet request, are well traveled and could not say enough about the quality and presentation, whether breakfast, lunch or dinner for 7 days. The meals were healthy and truly a culinary delight. Nina made excellent drinks based on individual requests.”
“I would be remiss if I did not mention crew dynamics. Tim, Julie, Lucus and Nina’s work ethic, professionalism, demeanor and care for guest comfort was 10 out of 5 stars. They collectively made the Blessed the Blessed.”
The principal charterer, David, said, “The boat was as described or better. Discussions with Steve McCrea during the planning and selection phase made for a confident decision and ultimately the right choice. Ed Hamilton out worked their competitors. We described our interest, scale and budget. Steve McCrea provided a focused response that allowed us to make the right decision. Your competitors do not put in the same level of effort. You have a good thing going.”
Captain Tim & Chef Julie have been a dynamic charter team for the last 25 years. Hailing from Colorado, Captain Tim Miller has been a SCUBA dive instructor since 1979, teaching SCUBA on his worldwide travels with extensive experience throughout the Caribbean leading safe, relaxed and unforgettable snorkeling and diving adventures. Chef Julie Brown moved to the Virgin Islands from sunny California. Her culinary style specializes in the elegant balance of nutritional foods and fine wines featuring aromatic combinations of the freshest fish & meats, vibrant tropical fruits & vegetables and mouth watering desserts all prepared with an outgoing personality ensuring that every meal aboard Blessed is a delightful adventure in itself. Rounding out the Blessed crew is Nina, who is an experienced stewardess and certified mixologist along with engineer/first mate, Lucas, a licensed yacht master, advanced SCUBA diver and water sports enthusiast. Together, the Blessed crew strive to provide guests the best vacation ever.
