I spoke with my client and he had nothing but praise to say…said the trip was great and the crew was great as well! Thank you and the crew for a great performance!
I was impressed with Maia. As a longstanding charter client, I am used to crews which may be committed but not have a Captain who owns the boat and put everything he had into building it. For Croatia, the fact the Captain knew everyone everywhere we went and the crew were all local and highly motivated made a big difference. The food was excellent and so was the service.
The tradition shape and full displacement hull meant the boat was incredibly stable dispute lacking stabilisers. We didn’t experience any poor weather so certain conditions might trigger more concern re stabilisation, but we did not have any issue at all.
The boat looks very classy and just looked more stylish than other more typical boats. It had a nice feeling about it. Also, the way they set up the floating beach club was impressive with the platform at the rear of the traditional stern going down and everything being set up in an hour and put away in an hour using the crane and toy storage at the bow.
Feedback from the client as excellent. He thought Filip was simply the best Captain he has had on charter ever. He loved the food and Chef although in hindsight he felt they were a little too controlling and should have left the Chef to do their own thing but Mrs is very specific about the food so not an easy dynamic. He liked the yacht, it worked well and probably the best Croatian yacht he has chartered.
I thought working with Filip was such a pleasure. So well connected, willing to please and simply make things happen for the charterer at all costs – be in financial or simply hard work and long hours. His leadership was exceptional in maintaining service levels, professionalism and morale all at the same time while being given a fairly hard time shows a true talent and dynamic approach, seldom seen in this business.
I will certainly place anyone I can onboard MAIA knowing they will be well looked after.
The clients had a fantastic time onboard MAIA and were very happy with the charter. I also can’t say enough good things about Captain Filip. He was phenomenal to work with from the broker side, incredibly responsive, helpful, and easy to coordinate with throughout the planning process. MAIA and the entire crew were wonderful, and I will absolutely be recommending the yacht and crew again.
