"Dear Norman: 

What a wonderful time we had on the Butterflies. You are such a good captain and host. I know it is difficult to deal with multiple personalities in such a small space, but you handled all situations with good taste. You can use us as a reference anytime. 

Our camping on St. John was very nice after we recuperated from taking the luggage up 150 steps! We visited some of our favorite places on St. John and Lyn met up with some old friends.

I am so glad you stopped by our last day in St. Thomas. We all enjoyed seeing you. 

Thanks again for everything. It was truly a birthday I will never forget. Best of luck to you."

Best time we ever had on a boat! Norman is absolute a great guy and super skipper.

We had a stroke of fortune when we chartered with Norman and "Butterflies"

The sailing, snorkeling, and meals were fabulous.

"Dear Norman

 I received a nice chatty letter from Jane Claffey telling me what a pleasant, accommodating and wonderful conversationalist you are and how very much they enjoyed their charter with you. The two teens had no idea they would have such a good time . Moreover Jane has been spreading the word about Norman and Butterflies to her neighbors. They have been interested and might be calling in the future.

Thank you a lot.
