I had the best time. The scuba course was easy and fun and was such a great adventure. I even survived 2 shark sightings!
I loved the nights when everyone laid on the nets and talked, especially the one with the thunderstorm night. In regards, to the food, lets just say it was amazing. Thank you all so much for making this my best vacation ever!

Dear Hans & Dive master Joey,.
Thank you for keeping our diverse group well occupied & having fun.
You were both kind and patient with the kids and those of us who were not used to life on a boat. The islands & bays that you brought us to offered something for everyone- snorkelers, divers, kayakers. Think of us next time you have a gin & tonic.
Cheers, Kate Winchell
Wolfgang,
Fantastic trips but actually too short. If you ever need to prove to somebody in Canada that you exist, please have them contact us at…….

Ode to Hans & Joy,
Our week on board of Mozart was a perfectly orchestrated sequence of cooking art and entertainment. Our Russian-Austrian-Texan group had a great week and quite possibly best holiday ever. What a party!
All you need is love! and Hans & Joy and a sailboat….

It was real and it was fun and it was really, really fun.
A perfect holiday with nature, sea, good company and no troubles. An excellent way to bring in the New Year 2008 and say goodbye to the old year.
