1. Were the staff at Navigare friendly and accommodating?
Yes, although we were at CYOA instead of Navigare. The marina was close to the airport so a short drive.

Yes, but likely our captain did the cooking do didn’t have to worry about figuring it out.
4. Was the boat well ventilated?
Yes
5. Did the staff at Navigare do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
They did it with our captain.
6. Did you like the area you cruised?
Yes, it was beautiful.

No, y’all were amazing and helped us rebook due to covid and then helped find an amazing captain when ours had to back out.
8. May we post this review on our website?
Yes
9. Additional comments on your charter?
I would suggest adding a Yeti cooler. The ice chest provided did not keep ice frozen so we kept it in the fridge instead. Either add a yeti or an ice maker. We can’t thank Melody enough for finding Andre! He was fantastic!!

1. Were the staff at Navigare friendly and accommodating?
The staff of Navigare were great. Very friendly and very accommodating. Travel during pandemic was not an easy decision, but Navigare made it very joyful.
2. Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
Moana is a beautiful boat. Modern, comfortable, clean, well maintained.
3. Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
It was very well equiped.
4. Was the boat well ventilated?
It was. Only missed the port “bimini closure” so when it rained it was difficult to be out in the cockpit because everything got wet. I made the guys aware so it should be fixed.
5. Did the staff at Navigare do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
They did. Very helpful, patient and accommodating.
6. Did you like the area you cruised?
I did. Beautiful islands, beaches, good mooring availability, good itinerary recommendations.

Not that I can imagine.

It was an amazing experience and adventure since the dat we started exploring our charter possibilities with Navigare. All our doubts were responded timely, we received lots of material to prepare our cruise with lots of time in advance, they have great concierges, all the information received and recommendations for toy rentals and other services worked well too.
