Guests Comments:
Cliff and Sherry were wonderful. They made us feel at
home right away. We thoroughly
appreciated their knowledge of the area from best little island towns,
to the absolutely best fly fisherman in Belize, "Richard",
to an exquisite restaurant that will always be special to us, but most
importantly, the gem of Belize "Goff Island" only to be
fully appreciated when journeyed there on a private yacht like
Aubisque. Cliff and Sherry stayed onboard and watched a new
movie we bought while my husband and I had the entire beautiful
deserted island to ourselves!!!
We had a few special requests that were quickly obtained... (The
Freshest Possible, Humongous Stone Crab Claws!!) And we enjoyed the
taste of the islands with some of their favorite recipes as well.
To wake up to a great and healthy breakfast and
know that someone else was in charge of getting us where we were
going next. Now "That" is a vacation! It was
perfect. There's never enough time to see it all, so we will
be back. "Good strategy?" .....Julie, May,

All in all, a really great
trip with a most gracious crew who were attentive to our every need .
. . even some we didn't know we had! They went out of their way
to make it a fantastic experience, including a birthday dinner ashore
with some of their friends from Belize City which resulted in our
making great connections for our 3 days ashore after the charter.
We were treated to "ex-pat" hospitality in BC and two
great days visiting Mayan ruins, Belize zoo, cave tubing, etc., with
an excellent guide provided by one of our new acquaintances.
We would not hesitat to recommend the Wilson's and their boat to
others. Thanks for your help with the arrangements and for this
follow up. Janet.....1/10
