Here are a few comments from a few people who’ve taken the Star Chaser experience

“The most amazing experience of my life. Boogie the skipper was right when he said at the start you will experience every emotion going!!”
“Safety and the well being of the crew were paramount and the attention to detail was 1st class. The trip itself fulfilled everything and more and will live with me forever.”
“I often wish we were back out there surfing down a wave on Star Chaser. There is no better feeling than helming a Swan 51 as the wave picks you up and pushes you onwards!”
Craig also mentioned the crew were “the best!” but there was one thing he would have liked to do differently and that was to “not get off the boat!”

“Dear Starchaser - first of all, thanks for a life experience. Even though I was the only one aboard with my sailing experience that was not-existent, I wasn’t afraid at any point of the crossing thanks to the skipper and his crew. The thing that started out being an enormous challenge you could tell your friends or grandchildren about turned into a memory for lifetime. That crossing was definitely not my last, I hope not. Thanks guys!”

“What a fantastic day. The Captain and Crew planned and executed the day with precision, safety, and generally ensured that the day out sailing was enjoyable and exciting. My thanks to Boogie, Marlies and Janine for a wonderful experience. I always felt that my personal safety was in good hands and that the experience of the crew always gave myself and the guys at EUK great confidence to just enjoy the day!”
“Looking forward to meeting you all again!”

“I had a wonderful day, the crew were fantastic and made me feel that I was in safe hands. They were friendly and helpful and answered any questions that were asked of them. I would definitely recommend them for any corporate events.”

“What a fabulous team we made! I don’t think I have laughed so much for ages so I must thank you all for providing the endless fun, I won’t be able to look at a pair of speedo’s the same again. All the best to everyone - hope to sail with you all again soon”

“Definitely a great week - I had a blast and am looking forward to my next one.”
Giles, USA - Antigua Sailing Week 2008

“[I told them] what a fantastic time I had and what a great skipper I thought you were, even though we didn't get to do any cheesy dancing in Life bar! ..what I really liked about the way you ran things was striking that balance between having fun, learning, and the more serious bits......it's not an easy thing to get right but I think you did a brilliant job. You've got a great relaxed style, calm and approachable, and happy to give people the space to do their own thing.
Thanks for posting the pics on the site, just looking through them made me smile, laugh, groan, giggle and remember a fantastic week with a great group of people!”
