April 2026 Family Fun Spring Break

What a beautiful charter we had this week Jenny, Bob & James!

Had a fantastic time starting in Tortola and sailing to Norman Island. Having a blast jumping the Willy T with Valentin as a great tour guide. We enjoyed all the best food onboard VISION ! We were very well fed! And "watered"! Another adventure to Peter Island  for snorkeling and then to Copper for lunch. Val was brave enough to saved as the best mooring close to shore! Thank you to Charlie, Carolina and Valentin for  welcoming us onboard and taking such good care of us! Your warmth and hospitality are top notch! Thank you for a beautiful trip. The S.

March 2026 Mom & girls trip

Captain Charlie & Carolina,

What a spectacular adventure! I first came to BVI to stay on a boat 30 years ago and to came back this week with my girls and sail with you both has been magical. It was an exciting adventure navigating the winds, visiting Norman and Cooper Island. We loved finding a lobster in the waters at Norman and Starfish and stingrays at Cooper. Your roti, your chicken salad and the seafood dish were DELICIOUS!

Carolina, I will always remember your amazing desserts, specially the chocolate chip cookies with whipped cream, dulce de leche and hot chocolate.

It was a perfect start for our trip. Thank you both for taking such good care of us and letting us leave our stuff all over the cabins!

Capt Charley & Carol, Thank you so much for such a memorable trip around the BVIs. It was a great compliment to the Rosewood at Little Dix Bay to experience the area by boat for a few days. Your food was amazing, but even better was hearing your stories. We look forward to next time.

January 2026 New Year's Week charter guests, Pirate Fun!

Charly, Carolina, And Val

Ed and I dreamt & planned for this sailing adventure for a LONG time! I must say it was more amazing than we could have ever imagined! Everything was a new experience for us, as the days went on our "sea legs" improved (LOL) :)  OUR sleep NEVER better!



The food was incredible & delicious but more than that, spending time with the three of you and learning how to "live" on a sailboat, & most importantly learning about how you live your lives—was such a delight!!!



We loved your stories, your songs, your laughter..... We feel we have made friends for life! We thank you so much for the caring, kind and thoughtful ways you all took care of us!



Love you all xxxx Patty



P.S. Patty has said it all and better than I can ever put in words! This was the trip of a lifetime, most of all the new friends that will live in our memory forever plus a day :) Our lives are in a better place after meeting all of you and sailing the B.V.I. VISIT US IN NAPLES! Love you all ,  Ed

March 2025 Best family, now friends! Part 1

My Friends, Where do I start. This adventure started 2 years ago. We had such a great time on the first charter that we could not pass it up again. Spending time with great friends again. With the boys having such a great relationship, to playing 'Spin the disc' on Spotify playing good music and singing with the best of friends. There is no part of this journey that I could pin point as my favorite part. There are too many favorites to list. I hope in the future that you all will come to visit us in Minnesota and we can make many more memories together. With all the love and friendship in the world, Matt S.

March 2025 Best Family, now friends! Part 2

Charly, Carolina + Val : I cannot overstate how much I have enjoyed getting to know you guys more & more with each passing day. I do hope our friendships will last for years to come & we have many more adventures together as families... then as adults only while the boys are away @ college! So many memories this time around, but a highlight was jumping back into the water after hearing Val yell 'Shark' and finally finding it and swimming with it! And the nerve wrecking moments watching the boys cliff jumping @ the Baths. What a difference 2 years makes. Thanks again for your kindness & generosity. We will see you next year. Much Love, Erica S

March 2025 Best Family, now friends! Part 3

Ethan: "I think my favorite part was going to the Willy T and jumping off it again. Doing flips into the water was so fun. Yeah and tacos was delicious, and hanging out with Val again was cool."



Wyatt: "My favorite part was either jumping off the Willy T again, or spending a day on Virgin Gorda and renting the seabobs and going to the baths and cliff jumping with Val and Ethan. Thank you for the memories once again. -Wyatt"

February 2025 Blissful 2 Days in Paradise!

Captains Charlie & Carolina, Thank you so much for a great couple of nights cruising the channel. Such a FUN celebration of my 60th birthday and our 15th anniversary. We had a great time eating, drinking, and floating our way through the islands. We will see you before our 30th anniversary! Kim & Sean G.

January 2025 A week of pure relaxation in BVI

"Charlie & Carolina, We had an amazing time exploring the BVI with both of you! Thank you for creating memories for Tara and I that we will have with us forever. We enjoyed the great lunch and dinners that you cooked for us. Our favorite day was probably the snorkeling and seeing the different fishes. Also jumping off of Willy-T’s was fun. We will continue to season our foods with Argentinian spices in memory of both of you!  Love, Dan & Tara D.

January 2025 Sailing after New Year's week at Guana Island

Few perfect nights aboard VISION with Charlie, Carolina and Valentin complete with some sailing, delicious meals and wonderful conversation. Can't think of a better way to spend our last days in the BVI. Thank you! L. & W. R.

December 2024 New Year's Charter + 50th Birthday

I want to let you know that you have raised an amazing son! Val was wonderful to Bryce (11 yrs old) & they had the best time together. Val was the best tour guide around the islands.

November 2024 Friends and Family

Thank You for a wonderful charter despite the circumstances. We appreciate all of the hard work that went into chartering us all around the BVI's, despite rain & wind. We felt SAFE (Very important) + appreciate that you were taking care of us. I can't say enough how much I LOVED + appreciate the good, fresh natural food you provided us. Each chop of the knife was done in love and we felt that, so thank you, thank you. We hope to see you again one day. Please look us up if you ever come to San Diego. Of course, we would love to meet Valentine one day too. Sending you love & light.

Wishing you only good things & happiness.

October 2024 Two brothers and two nieces adventure in the Caribbean

Todo esto comenzo como una aventura, partiendo a un lugar que nunca me habia imaginado. 7 dias vividos increiblemente junto a parte de mi familia. Nunca me voy a arrepentir de haber generado esta quimica entre mi familia y amigos, amigos del corazon y del espiritu. Un gran beso y abrazo. Gustavo O.



Caro y Charlie, ha sido un placer y un honor conocerlos a ustedes y al genio de Val, que estuvo atento de todo lo que pasaba en el barco.No tengo mas que palabras de agradecimiento, todo estuvo impecable en todo sentido. Gracias, Gracias, Gracias!! Daniel O.



Caro y Charlie, estos dias en el Vision han sido sonados. Los lugares, las vistas unicas, la hospitalidad y la buena onda de todos los dias, las historias de cada lugar que visitamos y el introducirnos a la cultura local...maravilloso! Desde el primer momento nos hicieron sentir en familia, abriendo las puertas de su hogar, compartiendo anecdotas y momentos que quedaran guardados en nuestro corazon. Muchas gracias! Sol O. 



Como en todos mis viajes, llegue sin expectativa alguna, pero este viaje fue muy especial ya que fue con mis tios, en un barco y el plena naturaleza. Pude desconectar completamente y conectar con lo simple de la vida, la naturaleza y el disfrute del ahora. No me quedan mas que palabras de agradecimiento por estos dias, por los lugares tan lindos que nos hicieron conocer, por la buena onda cada dia. Nos abrieron las puertas de su casa y pudimos vivirlo con ustedes. Val es lo mas!!! Muchas gracias, espero volver!!! Tati O.
