Blake’s journey continued in the heart of Minnesota at the University of St. Thomas, where she pursued studies in business management and the Spanish language.

Testimonials from guests on SOL 80ft Power Catamarn

March 2024

Two of my children, a friend and I had the distinct pleasure of cruising the BVI for a week aboard SÓL in March, 2024. It was the girls’ spring break and I was looking for a trip that was engaging, active and fun for the teenagers, while also relaxing, beautiful and health-forward for my friend and I. SÓL delivered all of this and more in the week we were aboard.

For starters, the crew had many great suggestions for our itinerary, including secluded beaches, uncrowded places to anchor and fabulous places to snorkel. Each morning, Captain Jack pulled out our “treasure map,” and together we all charted our course for the day. The boat seemed to truly enjoy showing us the islands….often bringing us to new spots for each meal of the day!

And speaking of meals, we enjoyed an incredible and personalized meal each time we sat at the table, as well as a different tablescape for every meal of the week! The cuisine aboard Sol is the best I have ever experienced aboard a charter, and the settings are the finest anywhere, each more “insta-worthy” than another.

The boat interiors are as stunning and comfortable as the deck spaces. But, by far, the most impressive part of our week was the crew. Their camaraderie with one another was amazing. They seemed to genuinely love taking care of the guests, and did so with a consistent energy, smile and sense of humor that is truly priceless. Their ease amongst themselves allowed us all to relax and feel at home. They all brought enthusiasm to our plans, security to our activities, and we all parted as friends.

I encourage anyone considering this as your next vacation to book immediately! We all cannot wait to go back !!

March 2024 Honeymoon Charter

Message to the Yacht Owner:

What an amazing trip! My name is Ben and my wife, Leslie, and I just completed a 7-day cruise on your yacht, Sol. It was our honeymoon and we had never been on a yacht charter previously. We selected Sol based on photos and advice from the yacht broker. Our expectations for the yacht were high and we were so excited prior to the trip.

And I must say, the yacht exceeded every one of our extremely high expectations, and beyond. Sol is spectacular, and your selection of furnishings and accessories couldn’t be any better. We were proud to be on the ship and found ourselves constantly admiring and appreciating all the thought and design that created the beautiful décor and features.

We knew that Sol would be a fabulous yacht, but we didn’t realize that the ship would only serve as the platform for what was to come. The crew of Jack, Blake, Mallory and Richard made the experience come alive and they were absolutely wonderful. They anticipated and adapted to our needs and desires and were so engaged in creating something remarkable for my wife and me. They worked non-stop, but we got to know them personally and adore each one of them. Their talents compliment one another and there is a culture formed by this small team that works seamlessly to create remarkable experiences.

Another huge surprise was the amazing food and drinks served throughout the trip. We didn’t anticipate that Mallory’s talents would consistently elicit comments from us that this is one of the best meals that we have ever enjoyed. Blake kept us well hydrated, served and cared for our needs, and collaborated with them to create memories for us that we never would have thought of. Richard is a hidden gem and contributes to the experience in so many ways. Jack orchestrated the many stops and places we visited, as well as assembled a great team and created an evolved culture that has everyone knowing what they stand for, where they are going and how to get there. It is apparent that all of them participate in decision-making and own the outcome of their efforts. Every one of the team members contributed at mealtimes, getting drinks into our hands and special experiences on land and in the ocean, to create special memories for life for us.

We are fortunate to travel frequently and stay in many properties that are rated as some of the best in the world. Yet, this 7-day trip was the best 7 days of vacation that we have ever experienced. From beginning to end, this experience was exceptional.

Thank you for giving your team the latitude to create a special memory for us. It was magical. We are already assembling a group of friends to share with us another experience with your wonderful team on your amazing yacht, Sol.

All the best,
Ben and Leslie

Christmas 2023

I recently chartered the boat Sol for an unforgettable adventure in the British Virgin Islands, and it was nothing short of spectacular. Captain Jack orchestrated the perfect tour, navigating us through the stunning islands with expertise and charm. The staff, including Richard, Blake, and Mallory, were exceptional, adding to the overall amazing experience.

The boat itself, named Sol, was a beautiful haven for our family. Its comfort and elegance exceeded our expectations, providing a cozy retreat after each day’s exploration. The food was a delightful highlight, further enhancing our journey.

We are already eagerly anticipating our next charter with Sol. The combination of breathtaking scenery, outstanding staff, and the sheer beauty and comfort of the boat make it an experience we can’t wait to relive. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a perfect escape in the British Virgin Islands.
