“Mark and Sally
Since the moment we arrived at ‘VIKING DREAM’, we were home. There was no stone unturned and we wanted for nothing. The energy on ‘VIKING DREAM’ is so positive and loving, and all we can only figure it’s from Mark and Sally.
The Love and Partnership these two have is infectious. Beautiful.
All Glasses were never empty and our bellies were always full with food that’s nothing short of BRILLIANT
Every detail was anticipated. This was an amazing trip for all. The BEST VACATION EVER. I hope to return.
With Love, Gary”

“Thank you so much for a spectacular sailing vacation. Everything from Sally’s delicious meals to Marks world class eggs to our Daily Cocktail surprises, we thoroughly enjoyed it all.
We managed to pack a lot into the week. Memories that we will talk about for along long time!
You both made us feel completely at ease with the sailing and creating fun drinks in honour of the sailing.
We feel VERY LUCKY to have been your guests and we feel VERY LUCKY to have made new friends in you both.
We love’d hearing of your year long World Travelling adventure. You have inspired us and we look forward to our next sailing with you and hearing more about it.
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR A GREAT VACATION it will go down in our books as one of our best.
Warm wishes for safe travels,
Deb, Eric, Alex and Sam Schurr”

Hello Sonja,
We will be happy to fill out the questionnaire below but can also give you a one word summary and brief commentary.
The experience with Mark and Sally was simply superb.
They are first and foremost highly competent sailors, with long prior experience with the Moorings, who know every square inch of their cruising area. Combine this with the fact that they are both former business professionals who have applied a “feel at home, service first” approach to the this business, and left no detail, small or large, unaddressed in their attempt to provide their guests with a safe and truly memorable cruising experience. Put another way, they absolutely “know their stuff”, and take great pride and personal pleasure in what they do, and it surly shows.
We went aboard strangers, and came away friends, and our family could not have asked more from this vacation experience.
Thank you Sonja---you made an excellent call with this recommendation to us.

We hope your charter lived up to your expectations. We would love to know some of your impressions about your yachting vacation. Please answer the following questions and add any comments you may have.
1. Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
Most definitely. We could not have asked for anyone better able to take care of 3 very different couples.
2. Was the yacht comfortable and clean?
Immaculate yet comfortable. We felt very confident that the quality would surpass our expectations for the duration of the trip.
3. Was the yacht well ventilated?
We had a fairly constant breeze so there was very good ventilation. I would expect that this would be the case even without the winds we experienced.
4. Was the food good and well presented?
The food was exceptional and several people in our group gave the quality and presentation a 5 star rating.
5. Did you like the area you sailed?
Mark and Sally took no time at all to discover our preferences and brought us to places that fulfilled our wishes, ie. snorkelling, shopping, dinners on shore, etc.
6. Could we have helped you further in any way?
The service and attention we received was second to none and other than carry our luggage I cannot think of another thing they could have done for us on this trip.
7. May we post this review on our website?
Yes
8. Additional comments on your charter?
This is the first time the six of us have travelled as a group and the first time 3 of the group had been on a sailing trip such as this. Everyone, with no exception, raved about the whole trip and are anxious to go again. We thank you for suggesting Mark and Sally and we especially thank Mark and Sally for making this experience something all of us will remember for a very long time. All the best and happy sailing to all of you. Judy
