TESTIMONIAL
Dear Capt Mitch:
What a grand experience we enjoyed aboard the Windward. The boat is first class and the crew you put together was even better. You cared for our safety and comfort. You cared for our guests. You exhibited a caring attitude throughout. You are obviously comfortable with responsibility. You wear your authority lightly. And none of us will soon forget the Exumas! As first time travelers you took us to all the best spots, the calmest waters, the most beautiful sunsets. Thank you again for a wonderful sail! Can’t wait to do it all again. Best Regards and Smooth Sailing!
Spring 2024
The one week cruise was delightful. Mitch took us up and down and all around each town on the ICW along the way. A lovely leisurely pace and we saw great sights as we cruised with guests and each other. My 4 guests and I were very well cared for with good food by Anna- outstanding chef-small portions and heart healthy as requested and really tastey. She cheerfully prepared lunches and dinners for lots of outside guests. She is wonderful and very talented in the galley. Theresa, our stewardess, provided us with the utmost care in our staterooms as well as serving drinks and meals and keeping track of our belongings. Edgar kept the boat sparkling at all times and was a master at getting lines ashore when docking and making the captain feel comfortable with docking distances. Amazing care and expertise all the way around. The whole crew anticipated our every need and step. Our departure, arranged by Theresa and Mitch was seamless, car service was very good and we had a happy ending to a wonderful cruise.
I would do it all over again and I give the whole crew the highest praise and commendation. All 5 of us had a wonderful time.
Until we meet again, I am fondly,
