“Dearest Lynn & Mark
We were lucky to be with you for our honeymoon charter.
We searched long and hard for the right boat and crew for this most extraordinary moment in our lives. We placed our trust in you, and in Pacific Wave, and we were rewarded one-hundred fold!
We are so grateful to have spent this blissful week with you upon your magnificent yacht. She is a unique and singular experience floating in the World. She was meant for you and Mark, and we are blessed to have sailed with you both.
Lynn, you are our captain. Mark, you are a culinary inspiration. And now, you are our friends. We wish you and Pacific Wave the future you deserve, and send you our love and gratitude.”

Lynn & Mark
Thanks so much for welcoming the Heher gang onto ‘Pacific Wave’ for such a wonderful cruise from St Thomas to Virgin Gorda and back. Highlights were many, too many to list, but here are some:
Fabulous Captain(s) & Chef/Crew – a great team!
Upwind trip from Cooper Island to Virgin Gorda
Run from Virgin Gorda to Peter Island
Great snorkeling & tubing
The Coffee Grinders
Calm, unique anchorages
The Shark (Tarpon in disguise) in Francis Bay
The Barracuda at Christmas Cove
The Sting Rays at Norman Island
Eggs (Poached), Tamarind & Lime Chicken, Summer Fruit Compote, Garlic & Tomato Shrimp, Salads & Salad Dressing. Everything served was delicious, nutritious and fresh, and in exactly the right portions
Thank you so much for making this our BEST VACATION
If you’re ever inclined to visit ‘New England’, we’ll be offended if you don’t call us. We could even visit Newport RI and look at sail boats!”

“We had a splendid time. Circum-navigating Tortola, we snorkeled, swam, water-skied, ate (amazing food), and sailed!
Gorgeous! Absolutely beautiful boat and the most wonderful, capable, friendly captain and mate!
Thank you!!”
Marc & Julia – New York
“What was more fun? Wakeboarding around Le Chiffre’s mega yacht, the divine poached eggs and bacon or seeing the genoa unfurl on the passage from Sopers Hole to Norman Island?
Getting the balance between looking after your guests and bothering them and letting them have a go at sailing and being in control is a fine art – which you do really well!
The boat is of course beautiful!
The excellent cooking solved the Caribbean food problem completely and left even the best restaurants (Biras Creek) in the shaded.
Thank you for a first class week! We hope to sail with you again sometime”
Simon – London
“Also had an excellent time! I loved wakeboarding, being under full sail and seeing the dolphins!”

“Eight fabulous days aboard Pacific Wave, thank you Lynn and Mark. Very unfortunate that some of our party were forced to depart early, but all the more reason to come back again soon. The meals were outstanding and the islands and snorkeling just gorgeous. Pacific Wave is unsurpassed!”
Diana & Ian - Canada
“In the face of unexpected events, Lynn & Mark accommodated our needs and gave us a ‘home’ to return to. The last few days of sailing have been outstanding. The boat is immaculate and the food a continually unfolding gastronomic delight! I shall miss all the company, the laughter, learning about shepherding. Come to Canada. We sail there too!
Thank you”

“Our second voyage on Pacific Wave, this time with the three kids. A magical trip again.
You showed us beautiful scenery, stunning anchorages, wonderful times. And … the kids loved it! I have rarely seen them engaged to this extent.
Thanks again for your hard work and companionship. We always feel safe with you guys.”

Good times, lots of laughs, enjoyed the ‘Forests’ (Pacific Wave special rum punches), all our meals, snorkeling, etc. Willie T’s quite the show ha ha!
Happy Birthday me and Mark! (Christine celebrated her 40th Birthday onboard, the same day as Mark celebrated his xx Birthday).
Enjoy!”

“One word only: MAGIC …
We had a fantastic cruise thanks to your very professional skippering, your attention to detail and service.
THANKS!.”

“Lynn & Mark you gave us a great and memorable week aboard Pacific Wave. She is a beautiful, seaworthy boat and sails magnificently, a rare combination. Our sail to Nevis, Montserrat, Guadeloupe & Iles des Saintes was tremendous fun. You all looked after us wonderfully and worked so hard in some fairly lumpy seas. Mark’s work both above and below decks amazed us. Out one minute working the boat, the next producing terrific meals. We have both sailed all our lives and therefore really appreciate the hard work you put into making our week with you special.
Let us know if you bring Pacific Wave North we would love to see you there too.
Thank you all for a really terrific week.”

“As a final touch to our two week holiday to Antigua Lynn & Mark took us on a fantastic adventure on their beautiful boat. We started off from Falmouth Harbour … again setting sail to Carlisle Bay where ‘hundreds’ of turtles welcomed us and we had a lovely lunch… We‘ve had a wonderful time with you both. Thank you so much for giving us this amazing final touch to our holiday. Lots of love xxxx”
