February 2026 BVI Charter
Kyle & Tilly were just amazing. WAY, WAY beyond what we imagined. They both were professional, knew exactly what they were doing, and made outstanding efforts to exceed our expectations every day. We had 3 nice hikes – one at Little JVD and two in St. John. We skipped Coral Bay & had a beautiful anchorage in Ram Head bay with only one other boat. The meals that Tilly prepared were inventive and spectacular every time. We don’t know how she does it. Kyle brought out his drone & gave us some great pictures while we were underway. We had a nice sail to Great St. James and had take-out from floating “Pizza Pi” in the bay on the last night. Bluewinds was very comfortable.

What an amazing week! John and I so appreciate all that you did to make every day perfect. The meals were phenomenal, the hospitality gracious and the details of each day planned to give all of us a fabulous time. We discovered new places to snorkel and dive, had great dinners and CocoMayas and Cooper Island and were glad you could join us! The weather was gorgeous every day. Thank you for sharing this once in a lifetime experience with us.
We love you!

This was such a wonderful week. I am not sure that you've had such sailing juvenile at 72 years young but I tried hard, listened well and want you to know these memories will be with me forever. I will always remember my first crew. Seriously you weren't a crew to me, your ever present smiles and kindness are truly remarkable and you made this boat feel like home for our week. Food was amazing and the snorkel tours were such a treat!

Thank you for such an awesome week! It was not our first rodeo so we have so much to compare to - the food was such a great surprise daily. We were all torn on what the best meal of the trip was, Tilly you outdid yourself.
The diving and snorkeling was terrific. Thanks for picking the best spots of the islands. Sharks, turtles, eagle rays, Barracuda and so many more first fishes (oh and the octopus!). Can't wait to do it again. We don't want to leave. Kyle you have such great eyes, seeing and pointing out what we would have overlooked. You are both so great - we had no need you did not address..THANKS!!
see you again soon,

"What an unforgettable week! Thank you for creating such a special experience for our family. You both went above and beyond in ever possible way, it never went unnoticed.
Thank you for making our kids feel so welcome and included. It meant the world to me that I could fully enjoy snorkeling + all the adventures knowing our 4 - year old too as happily "helping" in the galley and being so well cared for by Miss Tilly (our new best friend!). That kind of trust + ease is a gift on a family trips like this.
The girls are heading home with new bartending skills, amazing memories and so many stories - they absolutely adored both of you. And the games! Hands down some of our favourite memories + moments on the trip.
Miss Tilly - you are truly the best at life. Your cooking was incredible, your energy unmatched, and you somehow managed to be a world class chef, entertainer, party planner and obstacle course troll all in one! We are still laughing and we are still full.
Captain Kyle - thank you for your leadership, your patience and for being so wonderful with our kids. You make everything feel effortless and your scuba instruction have us confidence to fully enjoy every adventure.
We are so gratefully for this time and for each of you. This trip was something really special for our family and you guys were the reason why. Untill next time - thank you for everything!!!
With so much appreciation
Mayes Family.

Dear Kyle and Tilly
Thank you for the most incredible week and an absolute dream come true to share this once-in-a-lifetime adventure with our children and parents. Your kindness, playful nature, thirst for exploration, creative spirit and absolute generosity have enabled the most memorable BVI experience we could have ever asked for. Delicious food and drinks throughout the days, learning to play monopoly deal, numerous dives and snorkeling adventures, while exploring the most beautiful bays and sailing the open seas are just some of the best highlights you have provided us and will etched in our memories to make this the best trip ever! Please stay in touch as we would love to meet again for more fun - maybe in the Grenadines next time. We are so lucky to have had you as our amazing crew and will forever remember your kindness and guidance through the most memorable trip!
Thank you for everything!

Dear Kyle & Tilly
It's not just the adventures in life, it's the people you meet in this beautiful world. You two are the most amazing couple we have ever met. Thank you for all of it - too much to name - the food, your ability to play with the kids was unbelievable, your patience with them is something we'll always remember!! Thank you for that - from my heart - thank you. A week of splendid adventures, especially with the two of you, was priceless in so many ways. I wish you both all this world has to offer & more. And pray that we meet again in the future. These islands are so special because you showed them to us - through your eyes.
Thank you for everything,
love A & H Gleimer

Thank you for the amazing memories... Salt on the breeze and sun on our skin, we danced with waves, let laughter begin. From snorkeling reefs where bright fish gleam, to sailing horizons straight out of a dream.
We dove down deep where the quiet lies, then surfaced to stories and card games (monopoly deal!!) with splashes and swims in the turquoise sea, each moment felt peaceful and free.
At sunset we feasted, plates piled high, with flavours as bold as the painted sky. Full hearts full sails & joy that won't slip, forever we'll cherish our catamaran trip.
Thank you thank you!

Kyle & Tilly,
Thank you guys for such an awesome week! From tubing to snorkeling, monopoly deal and Tilly's first aid for all my cuts, everything was amazing. Thank you guys for being so helpful, warm and fun! I have already told my family so many stories from this trip and can't wait to share more when I'm home. Tilly, your food is the best, the salmon, the steak, and poke bowls were my favourite and I will miss your cooking. Thank you again for the kind graduation cake and celebrations. Kyle, thank you for helping me find a turtle to swim with, Terry was the best. Also, I loved the morning briefs and tracking our journey everyday on the map! I hope you guys have a great rest of season and and I hope to sail with you again some day!
Thank you!
