    We had a great time with Autumn and Shawn! We loved all of Autumns of cooking, she really did an amazing job with accommodating some of us with dairy free meals! Shawn took kids tubing, scuba diving, and snorkeling. They were very sweet and great with our teenage boys! We had 9 moms and 10 boys with two charters so I know that was a lot to handle. They made us amazing dinner reservations and made it very seamless for us! Was a trip of a lifetime!

    1. Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
    Shawn and Autumn were wonderful. They made sure we had lots of options for the activities that we enjoy.

    Yes and the air conditioning at night was perfect.

    4. Was the food good and well presented?
    Autumn is an amazing chef. Every meal she served was wonderful. We ate out one evening and it wasn’t anywhere near as good as her food.

    5. Did you like the area you sailed?

    8. Additional comments on your charter?
    We had the BEST vacation with Captain Shawn and Chef Autumn on the SV Kelea. The yacht had plenty of room for our family of 7. We told them we were very interested in exploring the National Park on St John and they made sure we saw the best of it! We went on multiple hikes and snorkeled many beautiful reefs in the national park waters. It was the best snorkeling I have ever seen. We saw multiple turtles, rays and many beautiful fish. We enjoyed lunch at Lime Out one day – that is a must! We had so many wonderful meals prepared by Autumn. Everything was delicious! We went out to a nice dinner one night, but everyone agreed that Autumn’s food was better. I cannot recommend this charter enough! We hope to be able to charter with them again in the future!
