PERPETUAL BLUE

Captain Kendrick and first mate/chef Mia were very helpful with our initial Zoom meeting before the trip. They were very thorough in discussing food and drink options, as well as island locations.

Captain Kendrick was phenomenal. His knowledge of the islands and great snorkeling spots was incredible. First mate/chef Mia was outstanding. Her food was delicious, healthy, and beautifully presented. Chef Mia presented amazing meals, and everything was delicious and beautiful.

We couldn’t ask for a better crew! Thank you to both Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia. They made our trip extra special.

We loved the cruising area! There were really good snorkeling spots and a lot of time in the water. We loved the additional hiking Captain Kendrick showed us. He was so attentive and made us feel safe at all times.

We wish we could come back next week, but it will probably be a few years to save up for this type of trip. Truly a trip of a lifetime.

Kendrick and Mia - Thank you for a wonderful week here in the BVIs. We appreciate all your hard work and for taking such good care of us this week. There are so many things to highlight but what was very special were all the special places you took us. Each beach was gorgeous. We appreciate the professionalism and expertise you demonstrated each day, each meal, and each destination. You both made it so worry-free. That made for a very special time for us and so we could relax and enjoy this beautiful place.

With gratitude, Matt

Kendrick and Mia - you both are such professionals at what you do… from guiding us safely through the islands to providing beautifully prepared and nutritious meals! Thank you! You compliment each other and work seamlessly as a team. It was fun listening to you share your stories and on the flip side you showed a genuine interest in all of us. We could wholeheartedly recommend your charter to others! Thank you, thank you!

I could stay another 10 days with Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia!! This is my third time catting the BVI and the crew makes all the difference. Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia were over-the-top fabulous. From adjusting to our timelines, long talkative dinners, to our pranks and many personalities.

So much to give kudos to on this trip! All the islands and adventures, including going into deep water with horses. galloping multiple times down Anegada beach, and our great tour guide Captain Kendrick driving us around in the back of a truck!!

At the baths, Captain Kendrick timed the visit perfectly, keeping them mystical as we explored without people pressure.

From jumping off Willy T’s, to dancing all night at Saba Rock, to making my birthday and our friends’ anniversary super special. From sailing, to partying at Soggy Dollar to the “party decorated” table.

Chef Mia’s creations I will crave! We hope to sail with Chef Mia and Captain Kendrick next year!

Thank you, thank you, thank you BOTH!

Hugs, Kimberley❤️

Kendrick and Mia, what a trip! We could not have had a better Captain and Chef extraordinaire! All the destinations were great, and your willingness to accommodate our needs and be flexible was great!

I will look for your boat when I come back to the Virgins!

Thank you both!

Mia and Kendrick - well this trip was way more amazing than I ever expected!

Mia, the food was spectacular! We have never eaten this well in our lives – Jen wants me to up my game because of you!

Kendrick, your ‘captaining’ was great – you kept us at ease the whole time. Whatever we needed, you were there helping us out. Definitely will go down as one of our favourite trips!!
- Jen and Lester

Kendrick and Mia, this trip has exceeded our expectations! We had the most amazing time. You two were the reason for such a great experience. Thank you for making one of our bucket list items a resounding success!
- Jen and Marc

Kendrick and Mia: thank you so much for our adventure! It was one of our most favourite vacations we have ever had and you guys were a huge part of it! Looking forward to our next trip. Good luck on your next adventure!
- Nick and Jess

Kendrick and Mia - Absolutely incredible. Far above my expectations. This trip was a great way to return to the BVI since our first time in 1992. You both worked endlessly to make our trip enjoyable - and you made it look effortless when it wasn’t. Thank you for sharing your favourite co Ed and beaches, feeding us the most delicious and beautiful meals, taking out the water toys, mixing drinks and pouring wine, and keeping nine people busy on multiple excursions each day. Fair winds and smooth sailing!
- Cindy and Brad

Kendrick and Mia, what a fantastic sailing trip. It was my first but not my last! The food was incredible – really loved the fish tacos and sweet rolls. And the desserts!!! Thank you both so much for everything you did to make this a fantastic trip that I will think of often. Kendrick - you were so patient with all of us and answering all our questions. I felt very safe and well taken care of. And you still hold the #1 spot for painkillers in my book.
Love to you both, Anne

Dear Mia and Kendrick, you are both so lovely, accommodating, kind and we greatly appreciate your willingness and deep desire to guide us to a moving experience of the myriad of excursions and locations in these islands. Thanks for keeping us safe, carefree and full of care and love these magical six days.
- George and Lee

Thank you for a wonderful adventure ❤️ So grateful to our crew - Kendrick and Mia showed us endless fun in the sun, and filled our bellies with the most fabulous food and drink - can’t wait to come back. Thank you!

We had the most unbelievable experience on Perpetual Blue. Captain Kendrick’s hospitality and easy going nature made us feel rights at home. Loved the nightly captain’s cocktails and his ability to steer into fun. Also we felt safe with him ❤️. Mia’s meals, snacks, desserts were incredible. Her thoughtfulness was seen at every meal. She is truly a talented chef. It’s amazing to watch her work, it looks effortless… even though we know it is not!
- Heather Athena

Kendrick and Mia, tho I’d past week was a trip for healing and reflection having lost the love of my life this year. We loved our BVI trips together and so I was able to honour my guy on this trip. Thank you for helping me with special touches like limoncello and Reese’s peanut butter ice cream. So professional. So kind. Such an epic adventure - Anegada, the Bitter End, Soggy Dollar, Willy T’s and dancing at Foxy’s were a blast. Turtles, dolphins, rays and tons of snorkelling - plus evening dances on the patio - all were complemented by phenomenal sunrises and sunsets! The meals were remarkable - so full!
Thanks for a wonderful adventure!
- Eddie

The bar has been set very high for our first journey to the BVI. What an amazing place. Kendrick and Mia catered to our every need. What a wonderful vacation you created for us all to experience. I don’t think you could put together a better vacation.
- Ken and Milena

Thank you, thank you, thank you! It was a long year and this was a wonderful way to hit the ‘RESET’ button. We can’t say enough about the wonderful service and the spectacular meals from Chef Mia… and Capt. Kendrick!!! The Best!!
We look forward to more adventures!
- Ken and Jon

Top notch service, excellent hospitality and an unforgettable experience. Thank you!
- Alison

What an amazing week! The adventures were incredible, the food second to none and the sunrises unforgettable! Thank you Kendrick, Mia, you are incredible hosts!
- Lauren

Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia are the best. They made our week truly fantastic with amazing food and beautiful beaches and snorkelling spots. We would love to come back again. This crew made our vacation excellent and we would sail anywhere in the world with these two! Thank you for all the awesome memories.
- The Dalson Family

Our time on board Perpetual Blue with Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia was nothing short of extraordinary. As a boating family, a catamaran like this has always been a dream of ours and this experience didn’t just meet that dream, it exceeded it in every possible way!
Chef Mia is truly exceptional. Her vegetarian cuisine was creative, thoughtful and absolutely delicious. It was perfectly tailored to our preferences and needs. Every meal felt special - beautifully prepared, nourishing and full of flavour! It was such a gift to feel completely cared for and to enjoy the food that was simply indulgent and artistic!
Captain Kendrick is the kind of captain that you hope for but rarely find - skilled, calm, fun and up for any adventure. From epic days on the water to awesome snorkelling spots to one of our favourite ever: Christmas carolling by dinghy, boat to boat, spreading joy across the bay we were anchored in. It was magical, spontaneous and unforgettable - exactly the kind of moment that turns a vacation into a lifelong memory!
Together, Kendrick and Mia created an atmosphere that was warm, joyful and effortlessly memorable. We had the vacation of our lives and we will never forget the incredible time we shared on Perpetual Blue. This experience will stay with our family forever!
Best wishes,
- Bill and Julie

Thank you so much for a great time, and I hope we will see you again. I hope you will have a great time after we leave.

This was the best vacation with the kindest most down-to-earth funny crew ever, loved it here.
- Alex, 12

I have never been more relaxed and cared for on vacation before! Total confidence in the captain and chef. They provided us with a lifetime of memories. We had wonderful excursions, experiences, food, fun and laughter. Can’t wait to do it again.
- Jenn Shute

We are so thankful for the amazing crew. We will never forget the memories made this week’
- Maddie, age 16

We had a great time this week. Thank you for helping us create family memories that we’ll keep for a lifetime
- Creig Shute

We are so thankful for the crew that we had this week, they were so kind and respectful, ready to do anything for us. I will never forget what we did this week, truly a blessing to be on this boat with these people. The food was so good, I will miss it.
- Charleigh, age 13

I’d like to send my praise for Jay Jay and Josiah; they were both outstanding. Our days aboard the boat counted as one of the best holidays I’ve taken, and both played a huge part in that. It was beyond wonderful to not have to think or make one decision for over 5 days, a true treat. Jay Jay piloted the boat calmly and skillfully, and Josiah: his meals were heavenly. We all reverted back to childhood and waited like children to be served his delicious meals, and we were so grateful for the opportunity to do so for that small space in our lives.

I know that I will recall those perfect days on the water: swimming, snorkeling, bare feet, and being exclusively outdoors. I will dream of my next trip.

We had a fabulous week on Perpetual Blue. We enjoyed the sun, snorkeling, and the scenery. Captain JJ was expert at charting our course through the islands. We felt safe and were incredibly well cared for throughout the trip. Chef Josiah produced five star meals. Each meal was its own version of exquisite. I highly recommend Perpetual Blue if you are considering a charter in the beautiful Virgin Islands. Both you and Josiah were hard working, friendly and a delight to be with.

Thank you for taking such good care of us! 💕
Nina

Thank you captain Jay Jay for such a great trip! You were the best captain and guide throughout the week and we all had an amazing time on the islands!
Spencer

Can't stop thinking about our incredible bucket list catamaran trip that we just took on Perpetual Blue & ! Nick and I are already dreaming about taking Charlie and our family and BFFs in the future. Highly recommend! Our captain and chef were incredible and made the whole experience extra special! Highly recommend this boat and crew!
Pam

We had the MOST AMAZING time ever on our charter!! Dylan and Ameda were more than we could have ever hoped for!! My sister-in-law and I were crying as we said goodbye because they had become family to all of us. We both continue to talk to them since we have returned home also! The islands we went to were unbelievable and all the amazing adventures we did were amazing! They made Christmas for our kids (and us) one of the best!! We experienced some mechanical issues with the boat and Dylan and Ameda handled it so well. We had to spend the night on the dock one of the nights so a mechanic could work on the boat. Dylan had all of that arranged and worked around it to make plans for us on the island we were on.

We have shared our experience with so many of our family and friends and have recommended Charter Smarter to all! Thank you for providing an easy booking, great communication through the planning process, and overall amazing vacation!! We all are ready to come back and we want Dylan and Ameda again!! 😊
