From the Logbook

Our take: True Story

True Story offers the kind of elegant, confident charter experience that feels refined without trying too hard. This 67’ Fountaine Pajot offers generous spaces, quality finishes, and a layout that works beautifully for groups or families. The flybridge is a guest favorite—partially covered for that perfect mix of sun and shade—with a bar and enough room to spread out and soak in the views.

What really elevates the experience, though, is the crew. Martin and Tamara bring a seasoned yet warm energy to every charter. Martin’s years as both chef and skipper show in his attention to detail and calm presence, while Tamara shines in the galley with fresh, thoughtful menus and a love for local ingredients. They’ve built their life around the ocean and it shows. Add in the rare king-to-twin convertible cabin alongside the king master and two queens, and True Story becomes a versatile pick for those who want both polish and personality.

Thanks to you both for an unforgettable week aboard True Story. From the moment we stepped on the boat we felt welcomed & completely able to relax & enjoy the beauty of the BVI. The food, the snorkeling, and the islands were all amazing! We especially enjoyed celebrating chef Julie's birthday and "skip around the room/boat" will definitely remain one of our favourite memories from this trip.

42 Shades of Blue Caribbean Waters
My husband and I just returned from a glorious week aboard Sea Dog, with Captain Mike and Julie. It was the experience of a lifetime.

The boat was grand, and immaculate. The BVIs and USVI were spectacular. Who can resist those 42 shades of blue Caribbean waters.

But the best was Captain Mike and Julie. They made this trip all the more special. Captain made sure we visited all the places on our wish list and got us there safely and with a smile. And Julie! What a surprise at every hand-crafted meal, from homemade ice cream to perfectly cooked sea bass. I regret our dinners on shore because I was sure we were missing something better on board.

They made our trip truly the best experience of a lifetime.

Magical

Can It Ever Get Any Better with Mike and Julie

Our last evening we stayed in Caneel Bay on St. John, the end of a glorious week of adventure, beauty and fun.

This was our first time to the Virgin Islands, the first time on a catamaran and I find it hard to imagine it can ever get better than this.

The natural beauty of the islands can only be seen in their entirety from the water. The many deserted coves and beaches, where we walked in the soft sand and snorkeled in the crystal clear water, were an up-close and immersive experience second to none.

Our son loved the underwater sea scooters and the wake board. Our oldest daughter would go out on the stand up paddleboards, and our youngest daughters jumped from the upper deck in between relaxing and handing out.

Mike was the perfect boat captain. Everything on board worked well, there was plenty of water for showers and all the toys and activities were already for use. He sailed us to the best of the islands, taking into account the weather and waves so we had a comfortable and enjoyable trip. On the longer stretches Mike showed anyone who was interested how to sail the catamaran, how to go fast and avoid the other ships and boats while getting to where we wanted to go. Mike led our weeklong vacation while being kind, pleasant, and confidentially in command. This certainly made it easy for us to relax and enjoy the experience.

As Mike led the boat, Julie led the accommodations and especially the kitchen. meals were the highlights of each day! The quantity, quality and presentation of breakfast, lunch, snack and especially dinner was wonderful. Julie is an outstanding chef. The cuisine was fresh and flavourful while at the same time being hearty, healthy and a joy to behold!
She kept the living area neat, clean and attractive!

While exploring both the American and British Virgin Islands we felt like we were in a floating luxury hotel. Every day provided a new and unique experience and the transit from island to island was an ever changing seascape of stunning natural beauty.

Every person in our family rates this as one of our best vacations ever. The only thing that might make it better was if we had a small convoy of 2 to 4 catamarans shared with friends and family, each crewed by a couple as thoughtful and capable as Mike and Julie.
Thank you!

Blessed
Thank you for the awesome week on the Sea Dog! The food was amazing! Thankful for all your knowledge about the islands. We are blessed to have spent the week with you both.

Deep Gratitude
The work you do is so important and so appreciated. Just wanted to express our deep gratitude for the dedicated work you do day after day. Because of you Mike and Julie, our time on Sea Dog was one of the best vacation ever.

Wonderful Experience
Thank you for a wonderful experience. The meals were amazing. We appreciate your hospitality and look forward to another trip soon!
