Σας ευχαριστούμε για όλα. Περάσαμε μια υπέροχη εβδομάδα. Η τελευταία του καλοκαιριού μας με πολύ όμορφες θάλασσες και πολύ καλή εξυπηρέτηση από όλους. Καπετάνιε, κα Σούλα και Λευτέρη εις το επανιδείν. Γεμίσαμε το σκάφος παιδιά και δεν αγχωθήκαμε για την ασφάλεια.
Είστε εξαιρετικοί!
Τζίνα
Περάσαμε ένα καταπληκτικό 3ήμερο και «κλείσαμε» τις διακοπές του φετινού καλοκαιριού με όμορφες αναμνήσεις. Σας ευχαριστούμε πολύ για το χαμόγελο, την ευγένεια και την πολύ καλή εξυπηρέτηση. Αν και μείναμε λίγες ημέρες, μας κάνατε να αισθανθούμε σαν στο σπίτι μας! Ευχόμαστε ένα όμορφο φθινόπωρο!

Dear Captain, Soula and Lefteris
The G. Family had a wonderful Greece sailing trip! We loved the boat, the crew, the food, the swimming and the islands. The whole trip was amazing and we would love to come again to explore the other islands.
Thank you for a fantastic vacation!
Bradley, Louise

To the Gorgeous crew…
Thank you for making these 9 days absolutely spectacular and seamless. We are so happy to have seen and experienced 10 different islands! The food was delicious and you were all so kind the entire time, so thank you all!
Soula is an amazing cook and doctor! She is kind and caring and notices when you need or don’t need something. She is an angel!
Lefteri is extremely hard working and always has a positive can-do attitude. If a puppy was a person it would be Lefteri – wanting to please and full of energy!
Captain George is calm and in control. He is an excellent communicator between the clients and the crew. He juggles with weather, winds, ports and clients’ desires. He is excellent at juggling and keeping everyone happy.
This is an excellent boat and crew that I would highly recommend!

Dear Captain George, Teri and Soula
What can we say? The whole trip was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better crew and captain to guide us through the islands. Your hospitality wan unmatched and I know our family will cherish this forever.
Teri,
Thank you for all your assistance and engaging in conversation. You are very kind and patient. Thank you for making the trip wonderful.
Soula,
The food you made us was incredible. It was truly some of the best food we have ever had. Thank you for making us feel comfortable.
Captain George,
Thank you so much for accommodating what we wanted to do and see. The trip couldn’t have gone soother with you as our captain. Thank you for taking us out for a wonderful last meal.
From the D. Family

July 28th to August 7th, 2021

Dear Captain George, dear Nikos, dear Soula,
As mentioned in my note in this particular book on the 31st of July 2018 “I know for sure that this wasn’t our last meeting”, I’ll stick to this sentence.
I don’t want to repeat everything I wrote 3 years ago, but what needs to be said is that this trip was at least as memorable as the last one. Maybe even better because it lasted 10 days instead of 5 (therefore twice the amount of memorable episodes and positive impressions). Me and my family were thrilled having the opportunity of seeing you again guys. As soon as the trip started, everything felt so familiar again. The places we been to, the impressions we gained. Everything reminded us of the positive feelings we shared the last time we spent some quality time together. I was very happy by the fact that despite not seeing each other for 3 years, I felt as we haven’t been apart for that long. The effort, the dedication to make this trip memorable for us was at least the same as on the last one. Maybe it was even a bit more because it was our second meeting already (and I’m pretty sure not the last one). As an addition to all the positivity that has been through by you guys, Greece itself made everything even more perfect. The weather, the food, the atmosphere… It was really easy to lean back, relax and enjoy the vacation.
Although, things happened in these 3 years (my handwriting didn’t evolve though, but I tried to make it as readable as possible), we still were on the same page and the understanding between my family and you guys was superb.
I wish you all the best for the near future, please everyone with your attitude and dedication while being a prime Captain as you are and I am sure always have been and will be.
Thank you so much Captain George, thank you so much Nikos, thank you so much Soula!
See you next time!
With lot’s of love,
Suha and the rest of the family from Slovakia (again)

July 19th to 27th, 2021

Dearest Captain, Nikos, Soula
Thank you so much for a wonderful voyage. You gave us a deep appreciation of your Greek Islands.
Soula, your cooking and especially dealing with a vegetarian, a picky eater and add a seafood lover was outstanding.
Nikos, your service was over the top! You have such a warm personality and welcoming, hospitable character. Always making us feel special.
Captain, you proved on a daily basis you are an expert seaman, you have impressive skills, especially getting into Hydra port.
Our Dallas family feels we have 3 new friends, and you are welcome to Dallas Texas.
Much love,
Jeff & Julia
