Lady Catron

Spending a week on Lady Catron was so much more than we could have expected. The islands are beautiful. The real attraction was watching Captain sail Lady Catron. From pulling out of the marina to playing Gilligans Island theme song during a little rain shower we knew we were in good hands. His expertise and care for Lady Catron were evident in everything he did. His care for us was evident as well, from keeping us up to date on our sailing plans, our island hopping and the snorkeling adventures ahead of us. He kept the toys and snorkeling gear always at the ready. Chef Emily just as impressive in Lady Catron's stocked kitchen. She prepared with ease and served with joy. She was great at accommodating our various food choices and preferences. We certainly felt silly with all our remarks with each bite but we couldn't help ourselves. Each dish was unique and delicious and deserving of praise. She also knew how to keep the party going with the extensive bar and fun drinks. Together they make a great team, and of course Lady Catron. This was a special trip for our family, one that will be one of our best! I loved that we were all together and all our decisions were made for us and our cares met. Forever grateful for this week.

I have tried writing this email so many times but still can’t seem to find the words to express HOW INCREDIBLE our trip was! I could not have even imagined that the trip could have gone as amazing as it did. The sights were amazing, the boat was perfection, our experiences made lifelong memories, but really it was the crew that made this trip for us. The hospitality was second to none and our time with them on Lady Catron will go down as officially the best trip we have ever had - at least until we come back and do it all over again :) Based on the responses from the friends with us and the friends that just saw our pictures, it sounds like we are bound to plan more trips in the future! I can’t thank you enough for this perfect trip.

Not sure how to even begin to review our 10 day trip with Capt Karl and Chef Nikki. The boat was immaculate and very well maintained. The bedrooms were spacious and the living area extremely comfy to lounge while sailing or just to hang out. There is enough room to lounge in the front, back or up top if you need space. Capt Karl is very knowledgeable of sailing and is willing to teach you along the way if you want to learn. He is also an amazing photographer and would take pictures of us on our hikes and around the boat. Chef Nikki, there are no words for her cooking. Every meal we had was as if we were eating in a fine dinning restaurant. At the end of our trip she even offered to provide some of our favorite dish receipts. Both Chef Nikki and Capt Karl have been in the area/profession for a long time and their knowledge of the area is amazing. Our group learned a lot about the area and sailing while on our trip. The next time we charter, we would go back with this crew in a heartbeat.

You two made our trip so special. We went to the most unique places and saw amazing wildlife and ate the BEST food we have ever had. ❤️ We wouldn’t have been able to see the sights we saw without your knowledge of the various islands!! Thank you soooo much for a great trip.

We didn't come to the islands to knit.....and we were not disappointed in any way. We had a magical time. We could not be more pleased with the holiday as it was one of the best vacations ever and surpassed our lofty expectations. Both crew are delightful traveling companions and incredibly gifted hosts. From the moment we set foot on the boat to the time that we unfortunately had to depart, we were treated as kings and queens of the Caribbean. I am certain, a harder working and more prepared couple can not be found....on land or sea! The 6 of us continue to be impressed with the amazing time we had and look forward to our next ocean adventure.

Thank you cannot do justice to this fabulous week long Christmas trip! Our first time away from home for the Christmas Holiday and we are certain we did not miss a thing! 5th trip in the islands. This one tops then all!! The boat is beautiful, the scenery we know and love BUT – Captain and First Mate CANNOT be beat. We have never felt so comfortable with a boat team. The captain’s incredibly competent hands, we smoothly sailed and were wowed at his numerous abilities. Sailor, Engineer, Comedian, Peace Maker, and so much more! His amazing wife the chef was a cook beyond compare and she was the easy going co-pilot in every sense of the word!
Thank you – we will be so sad to leave you and hope that our paths cross again.

This trip was the trip of a lifetime! I never dreamed how spectacular it would be. Your attention to detail and hospitality can't be beat. The food was amazing and the boat was impeccable! Thank you so much for celebrating our 40th birthdays. Thank you so much for an amazing week, it was beyond my expectations. Everyone should experience this at least once in their life!

This past week we were blessed to enjoy a trip with all of our kids on board the lovely Floatation Therapy. We enjoy traveling and greatly appreciate good customer service. The crew go WAY above & beyond to make sure you are enjoying yourself. You board as a guest and leave as family. I thought last year was fantastic - this year was even better! The chef definitely rivals the best chefs around the world! The captain is always thinking about your comfort as a guest. It's like he's a mind-reader: before you can ask a question he's already on it. I've never seen people work so hard, always on the go and always a genuine smile and ready to help. We love you guys like family and can't wait for our adventure next year. Every time our family plays Papelitos we will cherish the awesome crew!

What an amazing trip with 2 of the most gracious crew and now friends. From our initial greeting I knew that we would be well cared for. Seeing all the sights and gaining at least 10 pounds. What a gift you two are! The passion you two have for making sure that each person on the trip had a memorable experience will stay with us forever and ever. Thank you for such an amazing holiday with friends.

We just took an incredible family trip to St Thomas and St John and chartered on G2. The boat accommodations were wonderful for a family of 5 (adults). The crew were such a blessing- serving us with amazing home cooked meals, sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and hiking. They took us to see the beautiful yet secluded bays on the islands. They were a joy to be around for our 5 day vacation. We can't wait to go back soon!
