Guest One:
Thank you for making our vacation so unforgettable. Your staff went above and beyond. We are all so grateful. Until we see you again, have a wonderful transition to your new yacht!

Guest Two:
I think a big part of why it is so hard to say goodbye is we had the pleasure of being with authentic people. In a world/society filled with all sorts of negativity, it meant so much to hang with you guys and gals. You’ve all truly inspired me.

Guest Three:
Thank you all for making this a trip of a lifetime for us. You’re all the sweetest group and it’s your enthusiasm and caring ways and patience that made this experience extra special. Love you all!

Guest Four:
This has been the best vacation in my life. I hope this is a see you later, not a goodbye. You guys are the best crew, I hope I see you guys soon.

Guest Five:
I don’t want to leave because this has been the best vacation I have ever been on. The entire crew and captain have been the nicest people I’ve ever met and they made it most fun. You guys are amazing and I’m going to miss you!

A mere thank you seems inadequate to convey the depths of our gratitude for how well you have taken care of this family this week. As a crew you are all professional and elite. Beyond that though, you are caring and gracious folks and we feel blessed to have gotten to know you a little bit this week.

Thanks so much for going way above and beyond and for making this week and this trip one none of us will ever forget.

***April 16-23, 2022***

Well we are on our way home from what was the most memorable and fun week ever! I cannot begin to thank you for steering us in the direction of NO BAD IDEAS! Truly they live up to their name.There are NO BAD IDEAS on that boat and NO was never an answer. I’m not quite sure where to begin, the boat was gorgeous, meticulous and the interiors are beautiful! The food by Chef Warren was AMAZING, he is truly a magician. We all want a Chef Warren at home! The activities that the crew planned for us were so much fun and something for everyone. They were up for new ideas and always did everything with a smile.

What I want to express to you the most, is just how fabulous this crew really is! We felt like family when we left. In fact my mother in law began to cry and the girls were crying as well. This crew is absolutely STELLAR! Each and everyone one of them are fantastic individuals, hard working, always smiling and FUN! We had so much darn fun with them. We have been on charters before and we have never seen a crew like this. They are so close, work so well together and you can really see just how much they love their jobs. They have something really special there!

You will definitely be hearing from us again, as we told them we WILL BE BACK! I'm wondering if it would be possible for you to share our experience with the boat owner, he is coming on board this coming week. I know he knows what he has in this crew, but it is always nice to hear from someone else.

***December 29 - January 5, 2022***

Guest Feedback:

Thank you as always for arranging such an amazing trip for us. We absolutely loved the boat and the crew were some of the best crew that we have had on our charters over the years. We definitely plan to charter NO BAD IDEAS again. We appreciate all that you do for us.

Broker Testimonial:

Dear Owners of NO BAD IDEAS

I have just personally finished a great trip onboard NO BAD IDEAS where I had one of my favorite clients onboard. Where we were only onboard for a few days, I wanted to share with you that everything was executed seamlessly. Your professional crew are amazing and the thing that impressed me most was that your key crew members shared with me that they want to retire with you as the owner. Besides the crew, the refit that you completed has to be my #1 refit in the 40 mtr size range. Very smart choices from the relocation of the hot tub, to installing the big table forward on the sundeck. Very smart!!!

Needless to say, we will be chartering NO BAD IDEAS later this year.

One of the most difficult parts of my job is keeping up with crew changes. Many crew members are continuously seeking the next bigger boat or bigger pay check, so I commended them on wanting to stay loyal. Great job on your part for selecting a great team. Thank you for being such a good owner! I look forward to sending more business your way.

Dear No Bad Ideas Crew,

To say we had a great time would be an understatement. Thank you beyond for your hard work and kindness. We will truly miss you all. Until we meet again...xo!

***July 2021***

We wanted to thank you for the most special week onboard NO BAD IDEAS. We were blessed with good weather and exemplary service by the entire crew. The boat is a showstopper.

Your leadership and professionalism certainly reverberates in all departments of the vessel. The team seemed to work very well together, creating a great guest atmosphere.

Pete, Thor, and Neil were superb, balancing safety and sporting fun in all activities. Kat was also great in the water. The interior staff, led by Chief Stewardess Xan, were expeditious in their service and painstaking attention to detail. Her daily meetings with us about service and menu planning were great to allow for a personal but flexible experience. Bo and Kat were so attentive and personable. My kids are still raving about the meals...especially the sushi! Kuddos to Chef Olga, who is not only talented but welcoming in her kitchen.

***May 25 - June 2, 2021***

Dear Jon, Xan, Pete, Bo, Lucie, Niel, Kat and Thor the crew,

It is impossible to capture the beautiful colors of the Exumas and the water, and also impossible to describe in words our thanks for such an incredible week with you. We had an amazing time – every single day! Your attention to detail in every way, and your strong work ethic made our time on the boat so enjoyable. Chef Lucie, your bright smile and amazing food were some of the highlights of our day!

My husband and I so enjoyed being together and made some of the best memories of our lives – and all of you were a part of it. We have made some forever friends! Thank you!

I mean to be honest we wish we were still on the yacht! The crew members were all top notch!! Vicky was phenomenal! Literally a gem! Sean was an amazing captain and so knowledgeable and helpful! Jana kept our rooms so clean and was like a little elf on the boat. MJ, Jamie, and Nick were always so helpful with all the water sports and getting us drinks, and just at our service non stop! The chef was soooo amazing also! We've never eaten so good in our life!! We will definitely be booking again!!
