Rating of Charter Company & Yacht: 4
Upon arrival and during your charter, were the staff of the charter company friendly and accommodating?
Very nice and easy. Boat was already ready when we arrived.
Did the staff do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
Yes, very thorough.
Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
Any critical systems worked but was a bit surprised at the number of little things that didn't work given it was a newer boat. 2 fridges didn't work. Water maker didn't work. Grill didn't work. Broken drawer. Horn breaker tripped (weird one!). Nothing that made the trip difficult but for being a newer boat I was surprised.
Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
Yep, awesome but we only cooked breakfast and maybe 2 meals.
Was the yacht well ventilated?
Yep awesome.
Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
Moorings is great and we've always had good experiences overall. They just tend to not fix many of the little things.
Cruising Area
Did you like the area you chartered in?
Awesome views. Great water and beaches. Great snorkeling.
Would you like to share your itinerary or a vacation highlight with us?
Marsh Harbour->No Name for lunch. No Name->Green Turtle for mooring and dinner
GTC->Manjack for snorkeling then back to Guana
2 days in Guana at Orchid Bay marina due to wind and storms. Orchid had serious electric issues meaning we had to run the genny some anyway. But Nippers, Grabbers, etc were fun. Had a golf cart too.
Guana->Treasure Cay for beach and dinner. Skinny water going in but made it just fine and great anchorage
TC->Hopetown and stayed at Lighthouse marina for easy access. Firefly was great.
Hopetown->Little Harbour for Pete's. Fantastic place one of my favs
Little -> Pelican for snorkeling -> Tahiti for lunch and beach time. -> Marsh for dinner at Snappas
Marsh->base

Additional comments about working with the VI Sailing team to plan your vacation?
There was a few hiccups this time I think due to a misspelling on my name. Moorings said they were missing things I had done already. Also, prior to booking I wasn't aware of the requirement for the NauticEd cert. Luckily I had enough time to do it but that could have been a disaster.
Would you book your next yacht vacation with Virgin Island Sailing®? Yes!

Please answer the following questions pertaining to the charter company and the yacht you chartered.
Rating of Charter Company & Yacht: 5
Upon arrival and during your charter, were the staff of the charter company friendly and accommodating?
Yes, not particularly ebullient for people in the tourism industry, but good enough.
Did the staff do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
Yes. Vaggelis Katsikadas (fellow Greek) did a very good job.
Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
Yes, very. Only thing is that the port bow pulpit stanchion ended up coming undone with almost no force, so it could have been a hazard. Also, the VHF was making weird worrisome sounds and its LCD screen had an invisible portion so you couldn't read the text.
Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
Yes, although one of the pots was missing a lid.
Separately, the plates and glasses were placed in the cabinets as if it were a condo, but any movement in a seaway would have broken them. This was not a catamaran. Thankfully we had bubble wrap and stuffed it into the cabinets to reduce movement.
Was the yacht well ventilated?
It was OK. The amidships hatch had enough friction to be left at 45 degrees, but the forward 3 hatches were only completely vertical, so not as good for ventilation. But overall it was OK.
Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
It was surprisingly good for the job, despite the old-ish age.
