Guests aboard Victoria for two weeks in early April, 2008

Thank you so much for your email. Yes, we had an incredible time - it was probably our best vacation ever. As you mentioned, Swan Victoria is so clean and well taken care of. Many Swan Owners who had bigger yachts told us that Victoria was the most beautiful one in the Caribbean. Martha was a fabulous cook -  we never had the same food twice - even though we stick with vegetarian food, with no onions and garlic - which is a challenge in itself. Klaus is one of the happiest people we have ever met, always in a good mood and smiling - he was an outstanding tour guide and he even taught me how to snorkel (many tried - no one succeeded so far, as I am not the bravest person in water.... :-). Klaus seems to be friend with all the hotel managers and every time we wanted to see one of the wonderful resorts he just called up the manager who then offered to talk to us and show us the premises.

I will send you our second batch of pictures shortly. Feel free to use us as a reference or show some pictures to potential clients. If anybody has questions about Victoria they can call us. We wanted to go back at Christmas but it does not work this time for family reasons. But I am confident that we will call you either sometime in Oct/Nov or beginning of next year. We also would like to bring some friends along in the future and we probably would need about four boats. I will get in touch with you as soon as we have more details.

Again, thank you so much for finding us Victoria. You really found the perfect boat for us.

All the best.

 "Honeymoons are probably always too short but specially when spent on Victoria. A prefect boat with a wonderful crew and incredible food and drinks! More than one can ask for, we loved every bit of it and will do everything the exact same way again - only longer.

If sailing was always like this, we would not do anything else ever again. Anegada and dinghi riding with Klaus were only matched by spending time with both of you enjoying Martha's treats, starry nights in quiet places with romantic privacy and navigation lessons have to be repeated as soon as time allows. Thank you so much for everything."

Letter to a broker:

"Hello Broker,

I just wanted to drop you a note to say what a great day we had with Martha and Klaus. Having been on many boats I can honestly say this was the best presented I have ever been on! We had a great day the weather was good and Martha made a lovely lunch for us at the baths. The Swan yachts are very special and their boat is one of the best I have seen. Abi (my wife) used to work at Edmiston in Monaco for several years and she would happily send clients on this boat.

Thank you for organizing everything and I look forward to chartering again, hopefully for longer next year!

Regards"
