| Testimonials: "The food Ily prepared for us was Top Notch! With all the time she spent in the galley, I don't know when she found the time to tidy up the rest of the boat, but it was immaculate at all times. We had 2 objectives for captain Nic - to teach Lori & Elizabeth (age 16) enough sailing so that we can do a family bareboat charter next time, and to find us the best possible places to snorkel. Needless to say, both objectives were met with flying colors! In closing, I would just like to add that Nic & Ily are a credit to The Moorings' staff and woould recommend them and the Double Eagle III to anyone planning a crewed charter in Belize in the future." - San Pedro, CA. | |
| "Nic & Ily could not have made this vacation any more enjoyable. The boat was spotless and the level of hospitality was overwhelming. They have "raised the bar" for any future crewed charter. Well Done!." - Belton, SC. | |
