We did have an issue with our first boat (lightening strike) and though I went into panic mode, Michelle very quickly found some alternatives and one in particular - the Nomada was not only a perfect substitute size wise, ended up being far beyond anything we all could have imagined thanks to the crew. Truly, this trip was the time of our lives and cannot express enough how reassuring it was to have Epic Yacht Charters handling the details including checking in with our crew during charter to make sure we were having a great time! Would only book through Epic in the future!

Her recommendations for the boat and for transport to BVI were spot on for our family. The entire process was seamless. We cannot thank her or the crew of Segundo Viento enough for this amazing week. This was our second trip and there will be a third. read lessScott Cairns2/21/2023A memorable trip of a lifetime - "My wife and I contacted Michelle, somewhat at random, while killing time during way too long of a layover at... read more"My wife and I contacted Michelle, somewhat at random, while killing time during way too long of a layover at JFK airport on a Saturday evening returning from a cruise through the BVI (among other stops). That cruise rekindled my desire to do a crewed catamaran charter. Michelle replied 15 minutes later via email despite the day and the hour. A month later she booked our party of 8 on a then new to the fleet 67’ Lagoon power cat. Her intuition on what we wanted led her to suggest this yacht and it’s crew. Our subsequent week several months later aboard C’est La Vie was nothing short of Epic. All through the months of charter planning and even during the actual charter week, she was there with suggestions and ideas to make it a memorable trip of a lifetime. 5 stars all the way." read less

After an unusual cancellation of our charter, Michelle dug in and found us an fantastic alternative. She watched and updated us along the way as the brand new Wanderlust made its way to the BVI’s (from France). As the first ever charter, we expected some kinks and a learning curve but Captain Francois and Gourmet Chef/First mate Katie were ready and waiting to greet us. Francois love of sailing and the water comes through in all he does. Katie created spectacular menus with the perfect place settings to match. We had a great week snorkeling, sailing and eating fantastic food with a new signature cocktail prepared for us every evening. Thanks to Epic and Wanderlust! read lessNeel Kumar1/29/2023We had an AMAZING time! "We booked through Michelle to reserve the Vicarious Charter which took 6 of us around the USVI AND BVI.

Michelle was great to work with; quick to respond, knowledgeable and gave helpful suggestions when picking a charter. We had an AMAZING time. The food and drinks were great, the crew was very accommodating to our needs and we cannot say enough good things about Austen and Phily. We were luck that we found a charter that was able to do both the USVI and BVI. Once in a lifetime trip that lived up to everything we hoped it would be. Hardest part of the whole trip was coming home. Thank you Michelle, Austen and Phily!" read less

Once aboard Scuba Doo, Kris and Aneta anticipated our every need and saw to it that our days were as active or lazy as we desired. They were also extremely accommodating of late sleeping teens and picky eaters. It really was a fantastic week. read lessTandCJennings12/17/2022Everything was fabulous!

Michelle proved to be an excellent guide on making our choices of when to go, what boat and what crew would be the best fit for us and our vacation. And she nailed it! Krazy Kat is a beautiful boat perfectly setup for comfort, luxury, activities, rest, and relaxation. Our whole family (8 of us) fit nicely into the spaces on the boat. They have all the equipment needed for fun in and on the water.
The Krazy Kat owner made their best choice in selecting Cam and Jada as the crew for the boat. We feel like we made new friends with them, and we genuinely enjoyed all the time we spent with them during our week in their home. Cam is a skilled captain, and he's very relaxed and easy going creating fun and no stress. We loved the itinerary he and Jada chose for our week - it suited our interests perfectly. We appreciated that he laid out the plan for the day, but allowed for any spur-of-the-moment changes that occurred to us. Cam's table-scapes were a perfect complement to Jada's beautifully presented meals.
Jada is so relaxed and fun as well; we enjoyed the time we got to spend with her. She is an excellent chef, and she was able to accommodate our special requests easily. There were audible oohs and ahhs each time she and Cam brought the food to the table and she shared just what wonderful food we were about to eat. Every meal not only looked "Insta-worthy" but was delicious. We loved the customization she did for us and our interests, and we appreciated being introduced to new tastes and originals she prepared for us. We especially loved her appetizers at cocktail time each evening as we sat around sharing our favorite experiences from the day.
Cam and Jada are very attentive and seemed to have a good sense of when we were fine and wanted our time together. The only negative from our trip was that it had to end when it did, and we said goodbye to the BVI's, Krazy Kat, and the crew. Thank you Michelle for guiding us along this amazing vacation! read lessmichael schofield12/16/2022First crewed charter. - BVI, with the excellent and outstanding crew of Capt Mike and Lizzy.

Wonderful boat, super crew (can't say enough about how Mike and Lizzy made us so comfortable, and such a fun duo), We learned the crew really make the trip!. Hidden places, local spots, snorkel, swim, eat (like a michelin star restaurant - extra Kudos to Chef Lizzy), and relax in the beautiful BVIs. Michelle and her team set it up, kept in touch, listened to our dreams and between the Epic crew and the Lady Fiona crew, it was truly a dream trip. Looking forward to future trips, especially if we can hang with Cp Mike and Lizzy on board! read less
