HYPNAUTIC Yacht Charters

This was the most amazing....!!!
Best week ever!! I know everyone remembers their honeymoon but this was the most amazing way to spend it...barely wearing shoes, waking up and diving in the sea...swimming with turtles, lobster with Sam (with a capital S..the man with a plan). Amy’s amazing meals, Leo’s Vodka Tings and navigation skills (even under water!) and the most genuine hospitality. You two really made the trip. You work so hard to make sure we had the best time ever...and we did! We wish you many easy charters and the most happiness. We will definitely call you when we are back in February - we entered as strangers and left as friends! P.S. If you can’t read my writing, blame the Willy T Shot Ski :-) November 24-December 1, 2012
What a wonderful week!
Captain Leo and Admiral Amy...What a wonderful week to put life back in perspective. Our batteries are fully charged, ready to meet civilization but we will be back! Thanks for your patience, good humor, wonderful cooking, attentiveness, and superlative hosting. Please get HYPNAUTIC to New England this summer so we can do all this over again...where the lobsters have claws.Some people come into your life for a short time....you are part of it forever. Thanks for a spectacular 15th Anniversary renewal of vows. November 16-23,2012
The week was a true escapee!
Leo and Amy, The week was a true escapee! It feels as if we were on HYPNAUTIC for a month by what we did. Our experience could no have been any better. We look forward to seeing each of you again...even if the next time might have to be on land. However, we do hope to spend another week on HYPNAUTIC next year. Thanks for everything! July 1-8, 2012
One of the BEST vacations we ever had!!
Six women, all of us related, and all with very strong opinions. Yikes! What were we getting ourselves into?? Well, what we got ourselves into was one of the BEST vacations we ever had!! I’m pretty sure we used every water toy aboard - tube, skiis, snorkels, kayaks, floats - some were first timers and what great memories! Amy, your meals were perfect - you are truly a miracle worker. Leo, you are an awesome captain and a 1st Class guy! Thank you for making us feel so welcome. I can say that none of us want to go home... June 23-30, 2012
We couldn’t have asked for anything more!
Leo and Amy...Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! We had a great week, full of wonderful new experiences and delicious meals. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. Your love and dedication for you do here is apparant in every part of the trip. It was great meeting you both. Definitely looking forward to our next meeting! June 9-14, 2012
A trip of a lifetime!
After 10 years of marriage we treated ourselves to now what we know as a trip of a lifetime. This trip has exceeded our expectations in every way possible. Words cannot describe the total enjoyment we have felt. We are ‘heavy eaters’ and every meal was VERY satisfying. Amy you have a special talent in the kitchen. I hope we can take many more trips on the HYPNAUTIC in the future.I have never felt more comfortable and catered to before. We wish you all the best in the world. June 3-8, 2012
Treated us like royalty!
It was an absolute delight getting to share the week with you....words cannot describe. Thank you so much for sharing your sailing home with us and for your wonderful hospitality. Absolutely everything was fantastic. We loved all of the beautiful sites of sea and land. The food was outstanding...you are my favorite restaurant! Thank you for introducing my favorite new drink, ‘‘little dinghy’’ Captain Leo always made use feel safe and comfortable. It as a 10 all the way and hope to be back out here with you all very soon. We are at the end of one of the most relaxing weeks e have had in several years. Leo and Amy, you have both made this an unforgettable vacation. You work endlessly to ensure your guests have a great time. You welcomed us into your home and treated us like royalty. We will gladly return for a future voyage and will recommend HYPNAUTIC to everyone! May 29-June 3, 2012
Most awesome honeymoon!
We had the most awesome honeymoon. Thanks so much for making the start of our marriage so special! We are leaving with many few brain cells than we arrived. Please visit us when you are back North. We would love to host you for a few days. We will certainly be back with some great friends to share another week together. May 20-27, 2012
The ‘journey of our lives’!
Thank you for the ‘journey of our lives’. It was Fantastic! The memories of this trip will last forever. We appreciate the manner the entire trip was conducted. Leo and Amy became our good friends and were unbelievable hosts. Hopefully we will be able to do this again someday. April 7-14, 2012
Can’t possibly get any better!
I couldn't have dreamed up a better week than this. Every moment I thought ‘’it can’t possible get any better’’ but it did! The location, the activities, the food and the companionship were all exceptional. Leo and Amy make the perfect team. Thank you for the best vacation I have ever had. The HYPNAUTIC is so comfortable and Leo and Amy are amazing. This vacation has been relaxing and fun and filled with delicious meal and drinks. I can’t wait to be back. I have never felt so comfortable, relaxed, and at home on a vacation before. From the delicious food and drinks to all of the unique places we visited and Amy and Leo’s great company, there isn’t one thing I would change. A lifetime of memories in less than a week! Everything was ‘‘perfect’’ would be correct but it doesn't address the heart and soul and love we experienced this week. Amy and Leo - you felt like family. Thank you. April 1-5, 2012
We now consider them family!
Best trip ever. Leo and Amy made us feel right at home the minute we stepped aboard. They are so generous and kind. So much so that we now consider them family. Life is filled with experience and Leo and Amy have given us a memorable experience that will last a lifetime and desire for more good times together. The connection was quick, the pace relaxed, the experience was deep. ‘Thanks’ is just too small a word. March 17-23, 2012
Yippie!
Dear Leo and Amy, Happy Times Yippie! Perfect Non-stop Fun Amazing Adventures Unforgettable Memories Tremendous Experience Incredible Food Clearly the Best Holiday Ever! Thank you both for such a fantastic week! We arrived as guests and left as friends.... Love, Your youngest guests yet! (ages 7, 11, 13) March 9-16, 2012
This is the most amazing ‘‘HYPNAUTIC’’ vacation!
Our second time on HYPNAUTIC was even better than our first! This time we booked 9 nights instead of 7 because we felt cheated with the travel days and what a great idea that was. This is the most amazing ‘‘HYPNAUTIC’’ vacation anyone can imagine. The Virgin Islands are amazing, but the crew is what makes the difference. Leo’s sailing skills are superb and he custom tailored the itinerary perfectly to our tastes Amy’s culinary delights will please the most discriminating palette. They both aim to please and exceed expectations. We look forward to many more vacations aboard with Leo and Amy. February 19-28, 2012
“HYPNAUTIC’’!!!
Our very first of hopefully many weeks to come on the “HYPNAUTIC’’. We had no idea what to expect, but we were blown away by the professional , caring , attentive, accommodating crew! :-) We now think of the crew as our dear new friends. THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS. We ended up on this boat with Leo and Amy for a reason and we were truly blessed. ‘THANK YOU’ is hardly enough to express our appreciation. We are going home 2 very spoiled ‘Michiganders’. We wish Leo and Amy continued success in charters and in live and love! February 1-8, 2012
\"What an amazing experience\"
. Leo and Amy are tremendous hosts - totally accommodating, generous and kind. They anticipated our wants/needs in a way that no other place/trip in our experience has. Leo is the best captain - knowledgeable about all local sites, and excellent sailor and all around fabulous guy. He put together a fantastic itinerary understanding exactly what we were looking for. Amy is a complete magician in the kitchen - how she manages to produce restaurant quality (in taste and presentation) in a galley that size is beyond us. Every day was a new adventure from snorkeling to water-skiiing to cock-tailing (a lot..thanks to Leo's tasty concoctions). Leo and Amy were like family at the end. WE look forward to staying in touch as they were sincerely great people who really cared that we had a wonderful time. The boat was spotless and very spacious. January 7-14, 2012
Beyond our expectations!
Leo and Amy gave us spectacular 7 nights and 8 days of heaven. Their competence and attention allowed us to completely relax, enjoy nature and bond as a family. The charter went beyond our expectations. Captain Leo and Chef Amy could not have been more accommodating...so pleasant, calm, funny and interesting. This was our first charter and I know it will not be our last given the joyous time we had. We will be back! December 27-January 3, 2012
A dream!!!
The food was simply incredible and the kindness, hospitality and care for our comfort and attention to every detail made it a holiday beyond compare. HYPNAUTIC was a dream. The boat was immaculate and well stocked. Leo and Amy are incredible hosts and new friends. Amy understood we are discerning diners. In regard to meal prep, we upped what in Olympic diving is called 'the degree of difficulty' with Elyse's gluten allergy. Amy earned Straight A's nonetheless. December 18-26, 2011
Memorable from the moment we came aboard!
HYPNAUTIC was memorable from the moment we came aboard. Leo and Amy anticipate your every need. More gracious hosts cannot be found. Leo and his puzzles..Amy and her amazing food...including her sensitivity and extra preparation to accommodate a vegetarian in our group. A full moon party, great snorkeling, blue skies and clear water are just a few of the things we enjoyed experiencing. We look forward to our ''2nd time''! December 6-13,2011
The best vacation of our lives!!
We had the best vacation of our lives on HYPNAUTIC. What a beautiful vessel...comfortable and smooth. Leo and Amy did such a great job making sure we were safe, comfortable and had everything we wanted....making it a very relaxing vacation. Once I even asked about dolphins and Leo jokingly spoke ''cue the dolphins'' into his invisible collar microphone and within 20 minutes they were literally doing flips out of the water right next to the boat!! That earned a new degree of respect for our Captain... We were introduced to incredible new foods while aboard...Amy prepared some amazing local dishes and plated all of her creations with beautiful garnish. Each meal seemed to top the last. Eight days just wasn't enough! November 13-20, 2011
Leo & Amy, both exceeded our high expectations by many counts!
Leo & Amy, We had high expectations for this trip and you both exceeded them by many counts! We could not have imagined a more exhilarating week of sailing, amazing food and fantastics conversations. The boat is more beautiful and comfortable than we could have imagined. Sleeping on board each night and looking up at the stars through the hatch was an unforgettable experience. Thank you for opening yourselves up and sharing your experiences here in the islands. I hope that can do this for many years to come so we can keep building up the great stories. December 8-15, 2012
