After 14 years of being actively employed in the charter yacht industry, we just experienced something that we've never done. We took ourselves out on charter! Yes, that's right. Yacht Three Moons has sailed all the way from Ft. Lauderdale to Trinidad over the years; but never just the two of us.

Wow! All we can say...that WAS amazing! It's no wonder our charter guests come back year after year. Chartering a private yacht is fun! We banned ourselves from thinking about "to-do boat projects" and woke up each morning with an excited sense of, "Where are we going to sail & what new experience will today bring"?
Our first stop after a lovely morning of perfect sailing, was North Sound, Virgin Gorda. On our bucket list, was finally having time hike the island. We've actually never hiked the area at the
Bitter End Yacht Club. The views were spectacular and we worked up an appetite that was cured by a fabulous Chicken Roti at the
Fat Virgin Cafe. Our afternoon was spent touring in the dinghy around Richard Branson's
Necker Island. (Which by the way, is $54,500.00 per night for a group of 28!)

The next big discovery was the tiny beach at
Saba Rock Resort. Rarely used by tourists, it was the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail in a hammock. Click

Biras Creek Resort. Yes, we've had dinner there with our guests over the years; but not often and never just the two of us!
There's much more to tell about our experience; but it should be told little by little and savored, just like a great meal. Check out our links to the places we visited and stay tuned for more great sailing experiences....
