Dear Mike and Kristyna
Thank you very much for making our first trip to the BVI so memorable. We loved every minute of everyday. The sailing was wonderful! Snuba diving was excellent and I doubt we would ever thought of it, if you had not suggested it. The food was outstanding! Kristyna you are an excellent chef and Mike is a great 1st mate in the kitchen! On the other side of this coin is Mike - great captain and Kristyna great1st mate on the boat! We enjoyed relaxing at Oil Nut Bay - a good midweek break. Sayang is a beautifully maintained boat and your pride in her shines through. We are so glad we booked with you and will forever stick with monohull adventures. We are looking forward to sailing with you again in the future.
Thank you and very best regards,

Mike and Jemma are superb hosts. The food was excellent. Rene is an excellent cook and she raves about these meals. Mike always reviewed our sailing plans. We always deferred to his suggestions and the results were ideal sailing conditions and welcoming harbors. There is just an atmosphere of friendly accommodation that makes you feel lucky to have chosen to make this trip with them. If you want sailing with professionals, gourmet food, and genuine warm hospitality, choose this couple and their beautiful sailboat, Sayang.

Mike and Jemma, thank you for teaching me the ropes of sailing, letting me take the helm, pick up some mooring balls, and giving me an unforgettable spring break. I now hope to continue both my sailing career and wakeboarding career throughout life.. I sincerely hope we run into each other on the water in the future. Thanks again!

I am the granddaughter of a pilot and am not comfortable on the water. I married a man who grew up on the water - sailing, water skiing, fishing, surfing.
You have turned a reluctant sailor into someone who appreciates the beauty of the water and the sailboat catching the wind. Paul, I appreciate all the history you taught us about the islands and the capable way you handle your boat. Ratna, your cooking was amazing. It made the boat seem like a luxury hotel. Thank you both for sharing your home with us and for helping us make some amazing family memories! Please call us if you ever visit Texas.

Paul and Ratna, This was a bucket list item for our family, and you both made it all that I had hoped it would be.

Snorkel a fish, blue fish, a way to go
Cast up my lucky blue hat. Tortola?
No-News-Norman, O lose the night quiets on to the Pillar of Salt.

On and on around the bend
I hope its not the Bitter End
Ah! To lick the salty red shells of Anegada
and live to tell the tale!

The last day of the greatest vacation ever. Reflecting on the highlights. Feeling like we experienced all the BVI has to offer, while knowing there is so much more.
When we return, it will only be with Paul and Ratna, as it was the crew that made the vacation. Though we don't have experiences to measure this by, it would be difficult to imagine a captain more focused on providing an experience of genuine pleasure. We were continually in awe of Ratna's ability to create fine dining out of the air. We all agree that meals on the boat were better than meals on shore - which were also delicious.

Paul and Ratna,
We had a family vacation we will never forget. It truly was an experience above our expectations! With only one true person with sailing experience the other three of us were a bit nervous about a week of sailing about. We neednt have worried. Sailing is truly a calming, zen-like, serene experience. I especially loved sitting and watching other boats, the sky, and feeling the warm breeze. Ratna, your kind , calm manner made life easy and comfortable and I am so grateful and appreciative of your delicious meals, that helped make it a true holiday for me too! Paul is charming and entertaining and we were grateful for his knowledge of the whos who in this part of the world.

This holiday ranks right at the top for our favorite holiday. It is certainly a wonderful way to see the other islands of the BVI, and we would have missed so much had we just stayed at a couple of resorts on two islands.

Thank you for sharing your home with us, it was an honor. The Sayang truly is a sweetheart, in any language.

Dear Paul and Ratna,
What a fabulous week! We feel so blessed to have had such a beautiful boat , but more importantly such an accomplished and knowledgeable captain and also a crew (Ratna) who is not only an accomplished chef , but would be a friend. Our family gave us the prized boat on the flotilla for which we quickly knew why. Thank you for your patience as it was not an easy U.S. group to organize with all of the various interests. You managed it with grace and patience and lots of laughs. We may be your last flotilla, but all enjoyed it thoroughly. Thank you!
Special thanks for also letting Jim get in his sailing fix. He learned so much! We also now feel much more accomplished in our snorkeling techniques and BVI trivia. Ratna has the patience of a saint as our children and nieces and nephews would love her food so much that she would have to serve us a few breakfasts every morning.
Thank you for a trip of a lifetime! We look forward to organizing our family and a few friends next round.

One week on Sayang
Not nearly enough
Our 10th anniversary
Spent in heavens cuff
From the tops of hills
To the sunken decks below
A beautiful boat in paradise

Ratna with her quiet nature and strong mind
She is the heart of this vessel
The food was sublime, not to mention the drink
However, to cross her, a mistake, I think

With Paul at the helm, we were safe and secure
Though perhaps a bit more dangerous, sir?
From stormy waves to tranquil bays
Our dreams of sailing, you fulfilled our days

Our week in your home
Was a beautiful dream
You delivered the turtles
And the chocolate ice cream
Your Sweet Heart and now ours
We treasure these quiet hours
From coral reefs to island peaks
Thank you for this beautiful week

New Year's 2012-2013:

Dear Ratna, Paul and Sayang,
We decided to take a 10 year anniversary over the New Year (2012 to 2013) in the BVIs where none of us had visited before. Your internet site convinced us this was our boat and our chef and captain. That proved to be the right choice for us, very soon. Kirsi, Linnea and I have enjoyed one of our best vacations with you! We love sailing and need our sun in the middle of the long dark Nordic winter and we sure got what we ordered! During the week both Ratna and Paul thoughtfully tailored every day or even every minutes program to suit our hopes and even smallest needs. We also met Ratna and Pauls nice friends Mark and Gillian with their girls Amanda and Olivia who got along nicely with our Linnea (7 year old) at the poolside at Bitter end as well as on their boat.
Pauls impeccable experience of the water, anchorages and weather patterns proved to be of great value to the success and relaxation of our vacation. Sayang is truly a great yacht and in extremely good condition and the best kept charter yacht on the market I am sure.
Ratna kept an incredible detailed and constant eye on what we needed, even before we realized our needs ourselves. She is truly a master chef and we loved everything that she served us throughout the week.
The snorkeling at Mountain Point, Cooper Island, South Sound and Salt Island was excellent and unforgettable.
Thank you Paul and Ratna for an amazing week!

We enjoyed having dinner on the top deck watching the stars. We cannot thank you enough for sharing the Sayang with us and your knowledge of the islands.

Thank you again.

SAYANG

Nogay Charter June 2011

Dear Paul and Ratna,
There are many choices when chartering a yacht. Upon meeting you and seeing Sayang, I knew we had made the absolute best choice. Our needs were satisfied every step of the way. From first boarding Sayang to the final sail to Road Harbor, you were the perfect hosts. I will never find two more knowledgeable and engaging people in the BVI. Paul, a masterful sailor, was pleasant and patient answering my most rudimentary sailing and navigation questions. Ratna, an accomplished chef and first mate, crafted gourmet meals and deftly assisted Paul in sailing Sayang throughout the BVI without a hitch.

You two are a great team. Thank you for a lifetime of memories.
Don Good

Dear Paul and Ratna,
We came to you looking for a relaxing, yet active, vacation for us and our nephew. Your hospitality and accommodations far exceeded our expectations. We appreciate how eager you were to take care of us and our needs. We told you what we wanted to do and you arranged our trip to optimize our activities and enjoyment. We were very impressed with your professionalism, as well as your knowledge of the local area. The best advice we can offer to fellow travellers is to trust your judgment because you know the best way to work the trip to provide maximum enjoyment as well as relaxation.

Thank you so very much for taking such good care of us. Sayang is beautiful and you both were a pleasure to spend time with. We look forward to our next adventure aboard Sayang.

Love to you,
Don and Justine Good

Dear Paul and Ratna,
After my week long vacation with Paul and Ratna, I can hardly think of a better graduation present than a trip on the Sayang. Both of my hosts were extremely friendly and made me feel right at home. After delving into the heaven that is Ratnas lasagna, I knew I would be expertly catered to. Pauls quiet demeanor was further complimented by his inexhaustible knowledge of the BVI. It was an amazing trip and is one I will remember for the rest of my life.
Love,
William Nogay

Having people to dinner and provide them a comfortable experience is one thing. Paul and Ratna take things to quite a different level. Great mealsamong the best I have experienced. Their home, the beautiful Sayang, is immaculate. They provide a tailored itinerary that provided an appropriate balance of activities and relaxation. However their real art is making their guests comfortable in their home. I dont know how they could have improved our experience.

Many, many thanks

Wow! Thank you for the most wonderful week. Sailing, snorkelling, swimming, relaxing it was great. Of course this could have been had on any charter here but what we experienced on Sayang was far and above the normal charter! What a beautiful boat Sayang is meticulously maintained such a wonderful home for us this week. Paul - thanks for your patience with the novice sailors - you were so kind. Ratna how can we thank you for your warm, kind way you served us all week. I truly appreciate your hard work to make every meal special. No way we could have had a better chef! Most of all Thank you for taking us to special places, the Last Resort, Guana Island, they were truly special.

Dear Paul and Ratna,

Merry Christmas! What an amazing week it has been. Apart from being constantly surrounded by spectacular scenery, Paul and Ratna have provided us with great company. Both of them are some of the kindest and most hardworking people we have had the pleasure of meeting. We truly enjoyed every moment, and will never forget this vacation. The food and accommodations were fantastic, and they have kept their boat in pristine condition. It was a joy to be able to share the Sayang with them, and we hope to be able to come back some day. My family and myself would like to thank them for opening our eyes to the beauty of the Virgin Islands. Every snorkeling adventure into a hidden world, every sunset over the glistening sea, every meal shared with friends and family, every hike to the top of a beautiful island, everything we experienced here was a gift that we all will treasure for a lifetime thanks to Paul and Ratna. We hope they will remember us, as we will never forget them, or any part of our wonderful trip on Sayang. Thanks again from all the way from Michigan,

Ratna and Paul,
Our first sailing experience was amazing!! The food was wonderful and plentiful so many unique flavors Yum.Jerry and I especially loved the challenging sail through the storm 30 knot winds with the boat heeling over was a real thrill!! The snorkeling was awesome lovely coral colors and so many different kinds of fish. Another highlight was a trip on the dinghy in a sudden torrential rainfall to dine at the Last Resort. We arrived safely looking like drowned rats and enjoyed a great meal wrapped in towels. Pauls expertise at sailing and Ratnas culinary skills made this a memorable adventure for the both of us.

Dear Paul and Ratna,
Where do I begin? The trip was incredible!
The boat Wow! We have never been sailing before and did not know what to expect. She is beautiful inside and out and the sailing was magnificent. You do such a great job maintaining every detail and she looks completely new.
The service It was everything we expected and more! You looked after our family with such great care and attention to detail. It could not have been better.
The food I am amazed that such great quality can come from such a small working area. You were so kind to provide 3 meals each and every day and they were delicious and presented with 5 star restaurant quality.
All together these things with the beautiful Caribbean cannot be matched. Thank you for making this trip so memorable!
Blessings to you both!
Barry, Leigh, Ashleigh and Nicholas

Paul and Ratna,
Thank you so much for such an amazing week! You both were so kind to drag us around every day and show us all the insider spots! The meals were absolutely fantastic, I think we all ate our weight and then some! You have been so kind and thoughtful and funny! We are really going to miss falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the smell of toast J
Chao!

All are family and lifetime friends so the setting and company guaranteed a memorable trip.<br /> All our many expectations were exceeded in the most stunning ways largely the result of our fantastic crew Morne and Kayla. These amazing young people thrilled us with their sailing experience, island knowledge and 5 STAR service all while sharing 7 uniquely different overnight moorings during our circumnavigation of Tortola.<br /> Fantastic nights sleeping aboard some cool enough for fresh air blowing through the cabin portals or when hot an A/C system that works!! Awakening to pressed coffee and a gourmet breakfast is Something Wonderful everyday. <br /> Mornings conclude with a sail to another exotic snorkeling or sightseeing destination. Another 5 STAR lunch by Kayla magically prepared aboard. We were truly spoiled.<br /> Something Wonderful is in the minority in a sea full of catamarans in that the entire upper floor is covered by a hard top with zippered enclosures we left open all week. As Morne sailed us from the upper helm to our next destination it was our place of relaxation and music. Enormous seating with sunbathing deck and a bar kept us upstairs and outdoors all week, morning to evening. The views of the endlessly clear and vibrant blue/green waters captivated all 4 couples.<br /> Our fantastic days concluded with another stunning dinner prepared by Kayla often with Morne’s help as they obviously enjoyed taking us to culinary heights we never expected. Wine and drinks abounded and singing and dancing made this birthday celebration my best ever and maybe the best ever for all our family and friends.<br /> We will return … all of us …. for all the right reasons.

Thank you, come visit us in Houston!<br /> Becca and Scott Schwinger<br /> Houston, TX<br /> USA<br /> <br /> I will try to make a short list: amazing food, awesome bedrooms, high luxury, outstanding crew. Obviously hands down best vacation ever, etc., .<br /> Charles Schwinger<br /> <br /> I absolutely loved the pace. Nice to take a break from the busy schedules. Loved the destinations and activities, but my favourite part of the trip may have been the food. How Ratna made all of it in that kitchen amazes me! Ratna and Paul were so sweet and helpful!

Definitely want to bring my family sailing. I would recommend you guys to anybody who wants a sailing experience.<br /> Dr. Ramesh V.

Paul, I appreciate all the history you taught us about the islands and the capable way you handle your boat. Ratna, your cooking was amazing. It made the boat seem like a luxury hotel. Thank you both for sharing your home with us and for helping us make some amazing family memories! Please call us if you ever visit Texas.<br /> Tracy Wilkerson<br /> <br /> Paul and Ratna, This was a bucket list item for our family, and you both made it all that I had hoped it would be.

Your internet site convinced us this was our boat and our chef and captain. That proved to be the right choice for us, very soon. Kirsi, Linnea and I have enjoyed one of our best vacations with you! We love sailing and need our sun in the middle of the long dark Nordic winter and we sure got what we ordered! During the week both Ratna and Paul thoughtfully tailored every day or even every minutes program to suit our hopes and even smallest needs. We also met Ratna and Pauls nice friends Mark and Gillian with their girls Amanda and Olivia who got along nicely with our Linnea (7 year old) at the poolside at Bitter end as well as on their boat. <br /> Pauls impeccable experience of the water, anchorages and weather patterns proved to be of great value to the success and relaxation of our vacation. Sayang is truly a great yacht and in extremely good condition and the best kept charter yacht on the market I am sure.<br /> Ratna kept an incredible detailed and constant eye on what we needed, even before we realized our needs ourselves. She is truly a master chef and we loved everything that she served us throughout the week. <br /> The snorkeling at Mountain Point, Cooper Island, South Sound and Salt Island was excellent and unforgettable. <br /> Thank you Paul and Ratna for an amazing week!<br /> Pekka, Kirsi, and Linnea<br /> Helsinki,<br /> Finland</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests2488-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 47"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:center;background:#CCCCCC;font-weight:bold;'>Christmas 2012 </div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Paul and Ratna,<br /> From a family of rookies!

I got to swim in the water inside and almost got to jump off a rock!<br /> Charlie, age 8,<br /> <br /> We saw a sand shark when we were snorkelling at Peter Island. The food was good to taste.

Sailing in the BVIs has been a dream for 20 years. What you give are the realities of a vacation that surpassed even my dreams. The ability to deal with the unpredictable weather and wind and create a total experience that satisfies all on board is hard work and a great attention to detail. From the trips to shore, to the many snorkeling sites - from the snacks to the incredible culinary delights -from the local knowledge to the sharing of recipes - your smiles and hospitality made our trip special. You are sending home two very relaxed happy people. Our best. Thank you.<br /> Bill and Carolyn <br /> Rutland, Vermont, USA<br /> <br /> It has been quite memorable and wonderful when Julie and I have been able to experience a vacation trip that has included visiting special places, enjoying great food and celebrating time with good friends. This past week has not only included all of that, it has exceeded all of our hopes and expectations and taken them to a whole new level. You both are very special people who invited us into your beautiful home, treated us like good friends and knocked yourselves out to custom tailor every day to make them the best they could possibly be.

Upon meeting you and seeing Sayang, I knew we had made the absolute best choice. Our needs were satisfied every step of the way. From first boarding Sayang to the final sail to Road Harbor, you were the perfect hosts. I will never find two more knowledgeable and engaging people in the BVI. Paul, a masterful sailor, was pleasant and patient answering my most rudimentary sailing and navigation questions. Ratna, an accomplished chef and first mate, crafted gourmet meals and deftly assisted Paul in sailing Sayang throughout the BVI without a hitch. <br /> <br /> You two are a great team. Thank you for a lifetime of memories.<br /> Don Good<br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Paul and Ratna,<br /> We came to you looking for a relaxing, yet active, vacation for us and our nephew. Your hospitality and accommodations far exceeded our expectations. We appreciate how eager you were to take care of us and our needs. We told you what we wanted to do and you arranged our trip to optimize our activities and enjoyment. We were very impressed with your professionalism, as well as your knowledge of the local area. The best advice we can offer to fellow travellers is to trust your judgment because you know the best way to work the trip to provide maximum enjoyment as well as relaxation.<br /> <br /> Thank you so very much for taking such good care of us. Sayang is beautiful and you both were a pleasure to spend time with. We look forward to our next adventure aboard Sayang.<br /> <br /> Love to you,<br /> Don and Justine Good<br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Paul and Ratna,<br /> After my week long vacation with Paul and Ratna, I can hardly think of a better graduation present than a trip on the Sayang. Both of my hosts were extremely friendly and made me feel right at home. After delving into the heaven that is Ratnas lasagna, I knew I would be expertly catered to. Pauls quiet demeanor was further complimented by his inexhaustible knowledge of the BVI. It was an amazing trip and is one I will remember for the rest of my life. <br /> Love, <br /> William Nogay<br /> </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests1322-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 70"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:center;background:#CCCCCC;font-weight:bold;'>Slepakoff May 2011</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>May 7 2011 <br /> A fantastic sailboat, a superb captain and a lovely hostess that made you comfortably at home.

Spectacular sailing in the safest of hands in the most beautiful of boats! There was sun, sea sand- and oh the wind! Thank you for showing us these islands, for sharing the luxuries of your boat-and for perfect evenings at the end of each exciting day.

Of course this could have been had on any charter here but what we experienced on Sayang was far and above the normal charter! What a beautiful boat Sayang is meticulously maintained such a wonderful home for us this week. Paul - thanks for your patience with the novice sailors - you were so kind. Ratna how can we thank you for your warm, kind way you served us all week. I truly appreciate your hard work to make every meal special. No way we could have had a better chef!

What an amazing week it has been. Apart from being constantly surrounded by spectacular scenery, Paul and Ratna have provided us with great company. Both of them are some of the kindest and most hardworking people we have had the pleasure of meeting. We truly enjoyed every moment, and will never forget this vacation. The food and accommodations were fantastic, and they have kept their boat in pristine condition. It was a joy to be able to share the Sayang with them, and we hope to be able to come back some day. My family and myself would like to thank them for opening our eyes to the beauty of the Virgin Islands. Every snorkeling adventure into a hidden world, every sunset over the glistening sea, every meal shared with friends and family, every hike to the top of a beautiful island, everything we experienced here was a gift that we all will treasure for a lifetime thanks to Paul and Ratna.

Feeling like we experienced all the BVI has to offer, while knowing there is so much more. <br /> When we return, it will only be with Paul and Ratna, as it was the crew that made the vacation. Though we don't have experiences to measure this by, it would be difficult to imagine a captain more focused on providing an experience of genuine pleasure. We were continually in awe of Ratna's ability to create fine dining out of the air. We all agree that meals on the boat were better than meals on shore - which were also delicious.<br /> Thanks to Paul and Ratna for making the BVI the BVE (Best Vacation EVER).<br /> The Bartlett Party - Kim and Curt Shannon, Jeff and Stacy Bartlett, Adrienne and Brandon Baker, Margaret and Charles Murray<br /> Fort Worth, TX, USA</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests5363-1.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 16"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div></div> </div> <div class='bs-example' itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Review"> <div itemprop="name" content=""></div> <div itemprop="itemReviewed" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Hotel"> <span itemprop="name">SAYANG</span> </div> <div itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" itemscope> <meta itemprop="name" content="SAYANG" Crew 27 /> </div> <div class="yacht_rev"> <div itemprop="reviewBody">April 2015</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>April 3rd 2015<br /> <br /> Paul and Ratna,<br /> We had a family vacation we will never forget. It truly was an experience above our expectations! With only one true person with sailing experience the other three of us were a bit nervous about a week of sailing about. We neednt have worried. Sailing is truly a calming, zen-like, serene experience. I especially loved sitting and watching other boats, the sky, and feeling the warm breeze. Ratna, your kind , calm manner made life easy and comfortable and I am so grateful and appreciative of your delicious meals, that helped make it a true holiday for me too! Paul is charming and entertaining and we were grateful for his knowledge of the whos who in this part of the world.<br /> <br /> This holiday ranks right at the top for our favorite holiday. It is certainly a wonderful way to see the other islands of the BVI, and we would have missed so much had we just stayed at a couple of resorts on two islands. <br /> <br /> Thank you for sharing your home with us, it was an honor.

We loved staying on your beautiful boat Sayang and exploring the BVI. We had great sails and some really good snorkels, thanks to your intimate knowledge of the islands.<br /> Ratnas cooking was amazing, with every meal a gourmet feast. Even with a couple of not so adventurous eaters, she managed to please. It will be a hard act to follow once we get home.<br /> <br /> Thank you for a great, special vacation for us all.

Our family gave us the prized boat on the flotilla for which we quickly knew why. Thank you for your patience as it was not an easy U.S. group to organize with all of the various interests. You managed it with grace and patience and lots of laughs. We may be your last flotilla, but all enjoyed it thoroughly. Thank you!<br /> Special thanks for also letting Jim get in his sailing fix. He learned so much! We also now feel much more accomplished in our snorkeling techniques and BVI trivia. Ratna has the patience of a saint as our children and nieces and nephews would love her food so much that she would have to serve us a few breakfasts every morning.<br /> Thank you for a trip of a lifetime!

Your internet site convinced us this was our boat and our chef and captain. That proved to be the right choice for us, very soon. Kirsi, Linnea and I have enjoyed one of our best vacations with you! We love sailing and need our sun in the middle of the long dark Nordic winter and we sure got what we ordered! During the week both Ratna and Paul thoughtfully tailored every day or even every minutes program to suit our hopes and even smallest needs. We also met Ratna and Pauls nice friends Mark and Gillian with their girls Amanda and Olivia who got along nicely with our Linnea (7 year old) at the poolside at Bitter end as well as on their boat. <br /> Pauls impeccable experience of the water, anchorages and weather patterns proved to be of great value to the success and relaxation of our vacation. Sayang is truly a great yacht and in extremely good condition and the best kept charter yacht on the market I am sure.<br /> Ratna kept an incredible detailed and constant eye on what we needed, even before we realized our needs ourselves. She is truly a master chef and we loved everything that she served us throughout the week. <br /> The snorkeling at Mountain Point, Cooper Island, South Sound and Salt Island was excellent and unforgettable. <br /> Thank you Paul and Ratna for an amazing week!<br /> Pekka, Kirsi, and Linnea<br /> Helsinki,<br /> Finland</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests2488-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 47"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div></div> </div> <div class='bs-example' itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Review"> <div itemprop="name" content=""></div> <div itemprop="itemReviewed" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Hotel"> <span itemprop="name">SAYANG</span> </div> <div itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" itemscope> <meta itemprop="name" content="SAYANG" Crew 59 /> </div> <div class="yacht_rev"> <div itemprop="reviewBody">Christmas 2012 </div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Paul and Ratna,<br /> From a family of rookies!

We could not have planned a better itinerary for our BVI Island tour. Ratna, the food was fantastic! And you made us feel so comfortable. You are just a delight! Thank you Paul for all of the sailing instructions. I am sure it will come in Handy in Kansas! But seriously Paul, your expertise at sailing in all conditions was amazing. It actually scares me to think what kind of captain we could have ended up with had we booked a different tour. You are extremely knowledgeable about the BVI and I could not imagine missing this opportunity. Thank you both very much!<br /> John and Debbie Bonee<br /> Kansas City, Kansas, USA<br /> <br /> What a wonderful vacation, we could not ask for anything more. Locations we went were perfect. Food was amazing, Ratna is a sweetheart. Paul knew so much about the islands and is such an excellent sailor, we totally felt safe in his hands. We asked for suggestions and everything they recommended was just perfect, from snorkeling spots, to scuba dive company, to nice quiet coves. Would highly recommend this charter to anyone of our friends.

The ability to deal with the unpredictable weather and wind and create a total experience that satisfies all on board is hard work and a great attention to detail. From the trips to shore, to the many snorkeling sites - from the snacks to the incredible culinary delights -from the local knowledge to the sharing of recipes - your smiles and hospitality made our trip special.

Upon meeting you and seeing Sayang, I knew we had made the absolute best choice. Our needs were satisfied every step of the way. From first boarding Sayang to the final sail to Road Harbor, you were the perfect hosts. I will never find two more knowledgeable and engaging people in the BVI. Paul, a masterful sailor, was pleasant and patient answering my most rudimentary sailing and navigation questions. Ratna, an accomplished chef and first mate, crafted gourmet meals and deftly assisted Paul in sailing Sayang throughout the BVI without a hitch. <br /> <br /> You two are a great team. Thank you for a lifetime of memories.<br /> Don Good<br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Paul and Ratna,<br /> We came to you looking for a relaxing, yet active, vacation for us and our nephew. Your hospitality and accommodations far exceeded our expectations. We appreciate how eager you were to take care of us and our needs. We told you what we wanted to do and you arranged our trip to optimize our activities and enjoyment. We were very impressed with your professionalism, as well as your knowledge of the local area. The best advice we can offer to fellow travellers is to trust your judgment because you know the best way to work the trip to provide maximum enjoyment as well as relaxation.<br /> <br /> Thank you so very much for taking such good care of us. Sayang is beautiful and you both were a pleasure to spend time with. We look forward to our next adventure aboard Sayang.<br /> <br /> Love to you,<br /> Don and Justine Good<br /> <br /> <br /> Dear Paul and Ratna,<br /> After my week long vacation with Paul and Ratna, I can hardly think of a better graduation present than a trip on the Sayang. Both of my hosts were extremely friendly and made me feel right at home. After delving into the heaven that is Ratnas lasagna, I knew I would be expertly catered to. Pauls quiet demeanor was further complimented by his inexhaustible knowledge of the BVI.

What an amazing week it has been. Apart from being constantly surrounded by spectacular scenery, Paul and Ratna have provided us with great company. Both of them are some of the kindest and most hardworking people we have had the pleasure of meeting. We truly enjoyed every moment, and will never forget this vacation. The food and accommodations were fantastic, and they have kept their boat in pristine condition. It was a joy to be able to share the Sayang with them, and we hope to be able to come back some day. My family and myself would like to thank them for opening our eyes to the beauty of the Virgin Islands. Every snorkeling adventure into a hidden world, every sunset over the glistening sea, every meal shared with friends and family, every hike to the top of a beautiful island, everything we experienced here was a gift that we all will treasure for a lifetime thanks to Paul and Ratna. We hope they will remember us, as we will never forget them, or any part of our wonderful trip on Sayang. Thanks again from all the way from Michigan,<br /> <br /> The Buday Family<br /> <br /> </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests6-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 86"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div></div> </div> <div class='bs-example' itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Review"> <div itemprop="name" content=""></div> <div itemprop="itemReviewed" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Hotel"> <span itemprop="name">SAYANG</span> </div> <div itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" itemscope> <meta itemprop="name" content="SAYANG" Crew 93 /> </div> <div class="yacht_rev"> <div itemprop="reviewBody">Nov, 2010</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Dearest Ratna and Paul<br /> <br /> What can we say - absolute heaven.

The food was wonderful and plentiful so many unique flavors Yum.Jerry and I especially loved the challenging sail through the storm 30 knot winds with the boat heeling over was a real thrill!! The snorkeling was awesome lovely coral colors and so many different kinds of fish. Another highlight was a trip on the dinghy in a sudden torrential rainfall to dine at the Last Resort. We arrived safely looking like drowned rats and enjoyed a great meal wrapped in towels. Pauls expertise at sailing and Ratnas culinary skills made this a memorable adventure for the both of us. <br /> Janet and Jerry <br /> Ohio</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests5-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 88"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests5-3.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 89"></div></div><div class='clr'></div></div> </div> <div class='bs-example' itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Review"> <div itemprop="name" content=""></div> <div itemprop="itemReviewed" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Hotel"> <span itemprop="name">SAYANG</span> </div> <div itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" itemscope> <meta itemprop="name" content="SAYANG" Crew 95 /> </div> <div class="yacht_rev"> <div itemprop="reviewBody">Whaling-April 2010</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Dear Paul and Ratna,<br /> Where do I begin? The trip was incredible!<br /> The boat Wow! We have never been sailing before and did not know what to expect. She is beautiful inside and out and the sailing was magnificent. You do such a great job maintaining every detail and she looks completely new.<br /> The service It was everything we expected and more! You looked after our family with such great care and attention to detail. It could not have been better.<br /> The food I am amazed that such great quality can come from such a small working area. You were so kind to provide 3 meals each and every day and they were delicious and presented with 5 star restaurant quality.<br /> All together these things with the beautiful Caribbean cannot be matched. Thank you for making this trip so memorable!<br /> Blessings to you both!<br /> Barry, Leigh, Ashleigh and Nicholas<br /> <br /> Paul and Ratna,<br /> Thank you so much for such an amazing week! You both were so kind to drag us around every day and show us all the insider spots! The meals were absolutely fantastic, I think we all ate our weight and then some! You have been so kind and thoughtful and funny! We are really going to miss falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the smell of toast J<br /> Chao!<br /> Ashleigh Whaling<br /> <br /> </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht1166/1166guests2-2.jpg?1927368222" border=0 alt="Photo 90"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> </div>
