Such a fun week on Deep Blue! Wow…Kim and Dick take care of everything, make us feel welcome and cared for at every moment. So sad tot be heading off this boat…we loved our time here.

Dick and Kim made the week a trip of a lifetime for us! They make it all look easy yet we saw how hard they work. You both make us feel like every sunny, perfect afternoon is just for us!

A week in paradise with amazing friends and fantastic crew who we now call friends! A spectacular boat that is beautifully decorated and cabins that make you feel like you’re at a luxury hotel. You two know how to make your guests feel special and pampered. We’ll absolutely be back soon!

You both have shown us an incredible adventure, and we hate to leave Deep Blue.  You both know how to make your guests feel special.

We can’t even put into words what an amazing week we’ve had.  Every single moment was our favorite.  Your knowledge, attention to detail, endless love you put into the food, the activities, the adventures, and making us feeling safe and cared for, is truly something we’ll never forget.  We are forever grateful to you both.  You are exceptional crew, and now we get to call you family. From the bottom of our heart, thank you.

Our group had a very relaxing stress free week.  All our needs were met with such kindness. Strangers are friends you haven’t met yet, and this crew are now our dear friends.

Dear Captain Dick, and Miss Kim.  You guys are some of the kindest and sweetest people I know, and this has been one of my favorite vacations.  Kim your food was delicious, and Captain Dick, you are a funny and cool guy who was awesome to hang out with.  I loved our family vacation.

Thank you for making our first trip to the BVI so special! you made us feel so comfortable and safe and taught us a ton! YOU made the experience and we can’t wait to come back and do it again. I fear my next dive may not be met with a surprise cocktail afterwards :(

Thank you for everything. Ya’ll are wonderful and spoiled me! Thank you Captain Dick for teaching me how to dive and Kim, thank you for teaching me how to set a beautiful table.I am so grateful for ya’ll.

Thank ya’ll for the best 7 days of my life! I had a great time leaning for Dick and eating Kim’s food. Ya’ll are both so knowledgeable and treated my family like royalty.

Review from Grace - age 10

We recently had the pleasure of spending two unforgettable weeks sailing around Antigua aboard the magnificent 'Deep Blue,' under the expert care of Captain Dick and Chef Kim. From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of extraordinary.

**Captain Dick** is a true master of the seas. His extensive knowledge of the waters around Antigua ensured that each day brought new and exciting destinations. His navigation skills were impeccable, making us feel safe and confident throughout our journey. Captain Dick’s enthusiasm for sailing and his deep understanding of the local culture and history added a rich layer to our adventure. He was always ready with a fascinating story or a hidden gem of a location to explore, making our trip both educational and thrilling.

**Chef Kim** delighted us with culinary creations that were nothing short of gourmet. Each meal was a testament to her creativity and skill, incorporating fresh, local ingredients in ways that highlighted the flavors of the Caribbean. From decadent breakfasts to exquisite dinners under the stars, Chef Kim's meals were a highlight of our journey. She was also incredibly accommodating of dietary preferences and needs, ensuring that everyone aboard enjoyed the dining experience to the fullest.

The **'Deep Blue'** itself is a stunning vessel, impeccably maintained and equipped with everything one could need for a luxurious sailing adventure. The spacious and comfortable accommodations made our stay on board feel like a five-star floating hotel. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged to provide the utmost comfort and relaxation.

Captain Dick and Chef Kim's teamwork and dedication to providing an exceptional sailing experience were evident in every aspect of our trip. Their warm hospitality, professionalism, and genuine passion for what they do created an atmosphere of camaraderie and joy that will be remembered fondly by all of us.

If you are looking for a sailing adventure that combines breathtaking destinations, top-notch service, and unforgettable memories, look no further than Captain Dick, Chef Kim, and the 'Deep Blue.' We can’t recommend them highly enough and are already dreaming of our next voyage with this incredible team.

Thank you, Captain Dick and Chef Kim, for an amazing journey around Antigua. We look forward to sailing with you again!

Dear Captain Dick and Chef/First Mate Kim,
First things first: I wanna thank you both with all my heart—or as we say back home, from the bottom of my Talladega-loving heart—for the most unbelievable two weeks out on the shimmering seas of Antigua. If cruising were a NASCAR race, y’all just took the checkered flag and did a victory lap in a golden speedboat.
Captain Dick, you steered us through those waters like I handle my Chevy on a racetrack—smooth, fast, and making it look easy. Every turn of the boat was like hitting the perfect drift. And Kim, lord have mercy, your cooking had more flair than a pit road on race day. I swear, those meals could win championships. They fueled us up better than my crew chief does before the final laps.
Between the sunsets that looked like they were painted just for us, the laughter we shared, and the peace of being out there with nothing but the blue around us, I felt like I was in one of those fancy TV commercials. Except it was real life, and y’all were the stars of the show.
So, from the depths of my racing soul, thank you for every moment, every meal, and every memory. We might not have been going 200 mph, but I’d say we were flying all the same. Let’s do it again sometime—shake and bake!

What a week, don’t even know when to start.  Thank you for your hospitality, kindness, and sharing your slice of heaven with us.  We are beyond grateful for this past week on the ocean with you.  This is a trip none of us will ever forget.

We can’t even put into words what an amazing week we’ve had.  Every single moment was our favorite.  Your knowledge, attention to detail, endless love you put into the food, the activities, the adventures, and making us feeling safe and cared for, is truly something we’ll never forget.  We are forever grateful to you both.  You are exceptional crew, and now we get to call you family. From the bottom of our heart, thank you.

There are truly not enough words to describe this trip - exceeded our expectations and beyond.  Coming aboard we didn’t know what to expect, but quickly came to think of you as family.  From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the most amazing week.  We love you guys

Not sure where we start.  Of all the catamaran trips we’ve done, this was by far the best one.  You both fit in so well with our group, you are like family.

Where do I begin?  This was truly the most magical adventure.  Thank you for embracing our silly group.  It couldn’t have been a better trip, and I will never forget it.  When we first started the trip, I could have never imagined the incredible time we had.  You two made it so unbelievable, and I can’t thank you enough.

What an amazing experience this has been.  You both went above and beyond to make this charter so memorable.  Captain Dick made us feel so safe with his boat skills, and we enjoyed the chance to go diving.  We loved the itinerary and knowledge of each anchorage we visited. Chef Kim was the perfect chef and hostess.  She anticipated our needs and made it happen. Her food was top notch from filet mignon, seared tuna, tiramisu, and a chocolate mousse to die for. I would recommend Kim and Dick as crew to anyone looking for a fabulous time in the Caribbean.

What a great crew to now call family.  We have totally enjoyed all the details Kim and Dick have done to make sure we all enjoyed our trip.

We have been to the islands, but never really to the islands, until now.  Spending a Friday to Friday with the most amazing co-crew was the most memorable sailing trip we’ve ever had. Their dedication to us as guests was unmatched, and will be forever cherished.  Never a dull moment, and out of this world cuisine made our trip first class.

We had a wonderful trip on the Deep Blue with Captain Dick and his wonderful wife Kim. The 58 foot Leopard Catamaran is fantastic, Captain Dick is outstanding at the helm and his wife Kim made fantastic food and beverage. They are simply wonderful hosts and we cannot wait to return. Their non stop efforts insured that a great time was had by everyone. Great Sailboat, perfect location, superb food and even better people. We cannot wait to sail with them again!

This is our third time in the USVI/BVI with Dick and Kim.  They are the perfect crew to make a vacation memorable.  If you are on this catamaran, you have made the best decision ever for your catamaran vacation experience.  Dick and Kim, thank you for all your hard work.  Deep Blue is a gorgeous boat.

This experience has been hands down the most incredible vacation I’ve ever had.  You welcomed us with open arms and made us feel like we’re family.  I’m hooked for life and can’t wait to share this experience with the rest of my friends and family.

Some moments in life can’t be captured in words.  To say that my experience with Captain Dick and Kim will be etched on my heart forever, is an understatement.

Our week on Deep Blue has been incredible.  Dick and Kim made it feel like home.  Both are a joy.

Our week on Deep Blue has been incredible! Dick and Kim made this feel like home. Both are a joy! We are leaving with wonderful memories, wider waist lines, and smiles for days. Thank you for creating a fantastic environment for us to sail and enjoy.

It was a great trip and my family had a blast.  You guys were wonderful, and we wish we could live on your boat with you.  I’m buying a lottery ticket tonight.

Captain Dick, and Admiral Kim

We had such a magical week sailing the BVI’s with you. The boat is so special and outfitted so thoroughly, truly one could arrive with a bathing suit and be set for the week.  But the true secret sauce is you two. Kim is the most gracious hostess. Our every need and want was catered to with a loving heart. Captain Dick was so generous with his knowledge, guidance and enthusiasm. Thank you for making memories with us all . The best to you both in 2025.

Jackie & Sin

Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality! The boat is fantastic and everything was 5 star all the way!

Thank you so much for a trip of a lifetime! I’ve been dreaming about it for a long time and it totally exceeded my expectations! The cleanliness of the cabins, the attention to detail, the amazing food and spectacular anchorages were wonderful but the thing we were most impressed with was how you treated us like kings and queens, catering to our every need with love and genuine care. We can’t wait to come back!

Thank you for a wonderful week where we could unplug, relax, and escape from reality.  Deep Blue is the most beautiful and coolest boat in all the places we’ve ventured to.  Every single meal was absolutely delicious. The time and effort you put into our week so awesome was greatly appreciated. You two work perfectly together to make lasting memories for your guests, and we’re so blessed to have met you.

Captain Dick / Chef Kim

I sincerely appreciate the adventure we experienced with you & Chef Kim. Being an Ocean / Beach enthusiast, one of the things I hadn't done was to go out on a CAT vacay!! Once out on the water with you & Kim the dream became a reality. More than I expected!! The problem will be --- now that I've gone with you both on Deep Blue, I wouldn't want to be with any other crew or on any other boat (CAT). Here's to our next trip...................

PS - next time take less pics of Mark and more of ME ???⛵

Sincerely,
Kerry
