Comments from previous charter guests:

  • Michelle’s cooking is amazing. We snorkeled at three spots in one day and loved it. The pace of the day was perfect. The front of the boat is so fun for sunning, relaxing, sleeping, hula hooping, sunsets and laughter! Captain Bill is the BEST captain ever! He arranged an agenda for us that was perfect. The games on board were a blast, the kids played lots of RUMMIKUB. As my 15 year old son said “this trip exceeded my expectations”, we all agree. Bill and Michelle are a great team and we can’t wait to tell our family and friends to come and sail with them. Like me, your children will be asking you to get the recipes for the delicious dishes Michelle prepared. I have my work cut out for me when I get home. Thanks Thanks Thanks...
The Hughes Family, December 20-27, 2013.
  • What a great time we had! Bill and Michelle could not be more accommodating. Great hosts at every turn. Capt’n Bill was so nice to ferry just from beach to beach any where at any time. Michelle’s food was always delicious and plentiful. Thank you guys. You made the trip fun, relaxing and exciting; everything we could have hoped for. We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being so great. It so makes the trip when the people who are with you are fun.
The Kiesner Family, December 27-January 4, 2013
  • Even though I had been to the Virgin Islands several times before, this trip was extra special because Bill and Michelle are extra special! They make you feel "at home" the minute you come aboard. Bill’s a great Captain and knows the waters well. Michelle always has a smile to share and is a fabulous cook! We visited new places that I’ve never been to before and had a lot of fun. In the evening we played QWERKLE and SCRABBLE... Lots of laughter! All in all, it was an awesome trip! Fun, full of new experiences, great food and sharing each day with friends. Thank you Bill and Michelle. I will definitely charter with you again!!

Charter yacht BANDERA New England & Maine this summer 2009

BANDERA is available for summer 2009 charters in southern New England. She will be based in in Long Island for June, July & August and will consider charters in Maine from late August through September – the perfect time for Maine cruising!

Charter New England this summer with BANDERA - Contact ParadiseConnections.com

BANDERA has always been maintained to a very high standard, but with a slower than usual Caribbean charter season this winter, Captain David Abramski reports that he used this extra time by keeping busy working hard on BANDERA's maintenance:
“We have done some extensive varnish and paintwork this winter, both exterior and interior and she really looks gorgeous! We have also done a number of smaller projects, such as new cockpit cushions, replaced the head stay furler, and redone the gold leaf lettering on the transom. BANDERA is looking better than she has in years!"
Last summer the owner had several new sails built, as well as extensive electronics upgrades, in order to ready BANDERA for the 2008 Newport to Bermuda race where she placed first in her class! Congratulations!!!

So, there's still a bit of time for a bit of Caribbean chartering aboard Bandera this winter, or perhaps you fancy some sailing in New England this summer... Let us know and we'll be happy to help!
Feel free to pop us an email!
