We left Quebec City in a snow storm one week ago! Sun, sand, sail and sex for a week in paradise.

Thank you Victoria and Curt for making my 1st sail trip a success and my husband will be more than happy to come back sailing now that I know the wonderful world of sailing!

We look forward to gazing at the Caribbean stars but for now, we will be closer to the north star.

Have a great holiday. Thank you for the great vacation.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! What a wonderful trip! You made our honeymoon more special then I could have ever imagined. Thanks for helping Mike with all the planning and secret keeping. I know is not something I would have ever thought to pick on my own, but I am so glad Mike did. Thank you for providing us with the perfect environment to truly relax.

The food was to die for! I know we'll be doing our best to duplicate a few of your recipes. Thank you for teaching us that Mike actually likes everything, not anything!

We wish you all the best. Safe travels.

Thank you! Mr. Mike & Mrs. Emily Quinones

Honeymoon Sailing...... September 10 to 20, 2007

When Nate booked this trip (our honeymoon), I was nervous ~ Who the heck books a charter in the Caribbean in the middle of hurricane season?!? I am afraid of deep water and sharks!

Luckily........

Ingrid went from tropical storm to tropical depression, overnight.

I stared out snorkeling with the vest and graduated to Curt saying I was a strong swimmer.

No Sharks!

I ate asparagus, beets, tomatoes and broccoli.

 

This is Why I'm Hot!

Trip Highlights......

Barry the barracuda and Nate teasing him with his toe.

Scooter fun on Virgin Gorda.

Having the Baths to our selves.

So much good food ~ We have been to spoiled.

Wicked Laser shows.

Showering in the rain.

(Just for the hell of it)

It is impossible to say just what we liked best on this vacation ~ you know I ran out of adjectives around Day 2! Perfect weather, a full moon and starlit nights, awesome sailing and snorkeling, dolphin and stingrays, beautiful bays and beaches. Fabulous food and dangerous drinks (thanks for that delicious Cosmopolitan) rounded out this perfect vacation. Above all, it was your hospitality, easy conversations, and your passion for life that made this week so special. Thank you so much ~ we wish you the best in all your future endeavors!

The Baker Experience "Part II"

March 31st to April 7th, 2006

 

 

Thanks again for another wonderful vacation! The Spanish Virgin Islands are great. The whole trip was perfect. The snorkeling was the best yet especially around "Diks Bay." The kayaking was good at Porto Manglar. The sea cucumbers and starfish were bountiful.

Next time we might bring the kids...... maybe not. Sailing together with you on the Billy Jean is one of the best things we've ever done as a married couple.

Thanks for the wonderful trip, food, education and conversation.

Thank you for the wonderful honeymoon trip. From the USVI to the BVI and back again it was a honeymoon trip we will never forget. You are great people and I feel like we became friends and that is how I would measure a great crew. Besides you also made us wonderful food, from snorkeling, to Foxy's, Willy T's, Virgin Gorda Baths, the bathroom on Peter Island, our first Black Santa Cause, the ribs on St. John, everything was better then I could have imagined. Please feel free to visit us in the Northeast when you come up next. We must stay in touch. Thanks for a great honeymoon. Nate Roxo

November 2 to 9, 2005

We can't thank-you enough for the fabulous week aboard the Billy Jean. You exceeded our expectations and we tank you for it. You took us to some of the most beautiful and breathtaking spots. We would not have been able to experience unless we were with you guys. Your experience and professional were top notch. We felt safe knowing you both had a passion for sailing. The meals you served were out of this world! The planning that went into them was much appreciated and we enjoyed every one!  Cocktails were great especially the German Chocolate Cake!

Highlights: The Baths, The Rock (spencer), ATV riding on Jost, Mark at Foxy's (one too many Firewater's), Real Estate Book, Delicious meals, perfest music, cruise ship sailing into the sunset!

Thank you again Mark & Melanie Teliska :-)  P.S. Visit us when you come to NY at Gourmeli Cafe

May 31 to June 9, 2005

The perfect honeymoon to follow the perfect wedding and hopefully to precede the perfect marriage!

We have thoroughly enjoyed every minute aboard the Billy Jean. You are both excellent host and tour guides. With in only a day or two we forgot that we were guest and felt like we were among friends.

You did such a beautiful job capturing all the fun and of course the relaxation on film. We will treasure those pictures and the memories forever.

Please let us know if and when you stumble across the perfect piece of real estate and or the perfect boat for us. Or whenever you are ready to become land lubbers and pass on the Billy Jean, give us a call.

We hope to be back vacationing again with you soon. We'll make sure to refer you to all our friends & family. They'd love it! Especially the awesome food.

Our first sailing experience could not have been more pleasurable!  The food, so gourmet!! Billy Jean ~ she was so comfortable ~ a true home away from home. You made us feel truly welcomed. The scenery was spectacular! But ~ or shall I save "However" the host & hostess were fantastic ~ we now have new friends & family. The week went to fast. We put ourselves in "Good Hands", we will have to "sail away" again. We are so glad we met you ~ you will have to come to California!! I will think of you every time I cook one of your dishes! :)    Love Ya, Alex and Kathleen    

January 15-22, 2005

Thank you for an incredible sailing adventures where words aren't enough. The Rain Forest was beautiful, the dining was to die for, the scenery was awe-inspiring and the company was even better!!! We will take back with us many great memories, and I take such great pride in how well I did my job during the "Chinese Fire Drill/Dinghy Rescue". Don't forget the jelly fish patrol, great political discussions, fine cigars, booby flashings and Chip's never ending "Stupidica". Absolutely the time of our lives with our new friends. Can't wait to come back for another sailing adventure with "ya'll"!!               Much Love   Chip and Michelle

We had a wonderful time, soon we will be in rehab, reminiscing all those Fantastic "Happy Hours - Happy Endings". Every day was and adventure we will never forget. The food was incredible. I especially liked Curt's coffee selection for the day. And will remember the school of jellyfish, How beautiful! and scrambling to get back to the boat. Old San Juan bought back memories from years past. We will never forget you both or this trip.     We'll be back.     Lots of Love,     Maureen and Bob

"Oh what a Year!!!"

You guys created a terrific vacation / 2nd Honeymoon for us. The BVI's are no adventure compared to the "Spanish Virgin Islands".  Go Immediately! Culebra was awesome, Flamenco Beach was the best beach I've ever seen

           
From there Curt and Victoria took us ~~ Cayo de Luis, Palominos, etc ~~ into the rain forest, seamlessly, great guides, great friends.      Kevin Hawley,  Lima Ohio     <--- Land of Ice Storms... --->

Whew! I was afraid Kevin would leave no room! You know how long winded people of his avocation can be... Enjoyed the stimulating conversations (political discussions), fantastic food, new and interesting to see... Great adventures and great friendships to relive over and over again... fun tid bits... the rain and rain again; "short" walk to the beach; blue Mitsubishi SUV's; San Juan policeman; diamonds are a girls best friend; country music; nightly cigars; 12 foot waves and endless swells; no land in sight! Could go on forever. Thanks for the memories; take care of your selves and Bis Morgen!    Aimee

Christmas 2004 in Paradise!!!

Exactly what I wanted... you seemed to fulfill my week as though in my thoughts. The serenity... the awesome meals... the dives off the back of your yacht... and ooooh how can I not comment on Curt's margaritas...you just can't stop at one!! Victoria, when I look in the mirror I feel as though I just got a face lift... Thanks for braiding my hair everyday. Two gracious host that will not soon be forgotten.    Danielle.   and I thought I was the Queen of Cosmos... you sure are the King of Margaritas.

Thank you Victoria and Curt.  Two host who've listened to our needs and took us off the beaten path. Made it possible to see shark, squid, turtles, ray's and many types of snorkel heaven. The fun, the meals, the drinks, a shared taste of scotch...eh! scotch whiskey...!! Fishing on a sail boat is fun, but catching fish is great fun. We will remember you both, just as much as our trip.
