Exactly what I wanted... you seemed to fulfill my week as though in my thoughts. The serenity... the awesome meals... the dives off the back of your yacht... and ooooh how can I not comment on Curt's margaritas...you just can't stop at one!! Victoria, when I look in the mirror I feel as though I just got a face lift... Thanks for braiding my hair everyday. Two gracious host that will not soon be forgotten. Danielle. and I thought I was the Queen of Cosmos... you sure are the King of Margaritas.
Thank you Victoria and Curt. Two host who've listened to our needs and took us off the beaten path. Made it possible to see shark, squid, turtles, ray's and many types of snorkel heaven. The fun, the meals, the drinks, a shared taste of scotch...eh! scotch wiskey...!! Fishing on a sail boat is fun, but catching fish is great fun. We will remember you both, just as much as our trip.

What can we say other then, "You Guys Rock". What an awesome vacation... We'll certainly never go back to staying at any boring resorts!
Secondly, thank you both so much for going out of your way to see to our every need. We loved Virgin Gorda and we were trilled to see the baths! The scooter was a blast and so was the lobster at The Rock! The snorkel spots were top notch... even if Scott was a bit afraid of the Barracuda! You even got me to try Sushi... although you couldn't quite see me in jumping at Willy T's. We'll certainly be back... maybe with the girls... or maybe not. You are wonderful people with a love for what you do that really shows!
Thanks Again Steph & Scott Sloan

Curt and Victoria ~
When John first began planning to take a trip on a boat I was really apprehensive. After a couple of years of him talking about it I decided to try it. What a Great trip!! Why did we wait? As always, John was right! It was truly a great experience. Both of you were a great fit for us. You are such wonderful host. Victoria taught me about the stars and Curt has given John a quick German lesson to impress all his cattle friends. The snorkeling has been super and Betty has actually began to relax~~~ The food? What can we say? Absolutely Superb!! I'm telling you ~ there should be a cookbook!! The evening meals and late night conversation were the best. Thanks for helping us celebrate our 30th Anniversary. Forever great memories.... Betty Lehman, KS
As usual, Betty has said all that can be said! Thanks for making everything so enjoyable for her ( I knew I would love it). Today I Love You, tomorrow when I get on the scale, Maybe not. Thanks for a great time John Lehman, KS
August 1 to 8, 2004
Curt and Victoria, Thank you for providing us with a wonderful vacation that our family will never forget. We had many new adventures ~ some of the highlights include:
Tooth Ferrie
Dumb Bunny showers
The big tropical storm (that never was) YEAH!
Zoe's booty dance
Pirate alphabet (Arrrh)
family fued, the name game, clothespin poker, and scrabble "Wienerschnitzle"... but our favorite of all... learning when to flush and all about potty time. These are special memories that our family will always cherish. Thank you for making that possible. Love the Corwins ~ Steven, Beth, Eric, Ali and Zoe
3 nights in Paradise
July 28 to 31, 2004
The that we spent on Billy Jean with you were amazing. It was far better then anything we could have imagined. You were both wonderfully gracious and fun host. We loved snorkeling, Willy T's (Jen's 1st and probably last body shot: thanks for the encouragement Victoria :-) ), the interesting conversations and the delicious food (probably what Jeremy will remember most fondly).
We can't thank you enough: you've given us so many incredible memories, and we will always be grateful for our time together on Billy Jean.
All the best, always

Wicked Honeymooners!!!
As you both know I have been planning our honeymoon for 6 months. Planning counts for nothing if the execution is poor. You guys have made this the best holiday I have ever been on due to the exact execution of the whole trip. You have ensured that our every need was taken care of. Great food, great drinking, great nights out and most of all Great Conversations, where we had a true meet of the minds, willingness to understand each others point of view. God Bless you both. Thanks for a WICKED HONEYMOON. Ollie Imuro, Reading UK

Curt & Victoria, I took a big gamble planning a sailing vacation for our 20th anniversary.. Frankie had never been sailing , and she was pretty nervous. You two were fantastic, and made us both feel comfortable right away. It's amazing what a good rum punch can do to relax a nervous wife. We had a great time, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and sailing. The food and drinks were fantastic. We got to try a lot of new things. Franking will never forget her "dirty martini". This is definitely a trip we will never forget. Richard Laurant
Thanks for a great 20th anniversary trip. For someone who was a little nervous about sailing, it turned out to be on of the best vacations ever. Thanks to sea bands, rum punches and the best crew ever. The food, scenery and company were the best. I would not hesitate to come back and sail with you again. Thanks for a great ten days. Frankie Laurant
June 11-18, 2004
Thank you for a week of great sailing with company to match. I enjoyed the BVI's and look forward to coming back on the Billy Jean. I hope Arlene can join me on the next visit. The best of luck to the both of you.

Thanks for the amazing week! We loved everything... Thought you worked a bit to hard ~ You know all those dishes :-( you really need to use paper plates :-) Thanks for pushing when I needed it. You are a wonderful spunky person Victoria... don't ever change! Sharyn
We came to relax, and that's what we did! Thanks for a great trip and great laughs. Of course now we have to change our phone number so Joe Bird does not get crank calls from crazy sailing chicks. Thanks Steve
May 15-22, 2004
Victoria & Curt~ Our adventure far met our expectations ~ To meet you both and share such a wonderful week was awesome. We experienced only the best in company, food and "new" experiences. Our trip to Willy T's was an experience like no other. The world gets much smaller when we have friends in such wonderful places. You are both so special and we will meet again on the Billy Jean. The trip was "PRICELESS"
Love Carol & Buddy. Oh and Celeste too!!
I am so happy that we did not do it all so this gives us the opportunity to return. All that we did do, however, was world class. You are a remarkable people. Thanks for a great week.
Henry Folklere, KT. M.
No fixed agenda, just sun and wind and new found friends with wonderful sites added as icing on the cake. "Hey Captain it's not going to rain", "Right." Now who could wish for a better vacation then this. Thanks for your very special attention to menu's that I could enjoy. I really appreciate the extra effort you took to accomplish this. Thanks for a splendid week. Evynonne

Curt & Victoria,
WOW! This week has flown bye, I wish I had another week. What a great way for Tisha and I to celebrate of 10 year anniversary. The first two days I had to keep reminding myself that I was really here. It has been unreal. The food, the stories, the scenery the weather, how can you describe everything that happened in a short paragraph? We loved it all and wouldn't change a thing. Your hospitality has been wonderful always, I really meant it when I told you about that "one" beach restaurant that after we ate there I thought to myself, "The food was better on the Billy Jean".
Best Wishes and Good Luck to the both of you!

It has been wonderful to share Billy Jean with you. A massive Thank You! I will let you know how I get on making bacon breadsticks, I might just have to come back & try yours again though. The water is the color of this ink. I won't forget it fast. Many Thanks, Simon, London

Words cannot express what this vacation celebrating our 10th anniversary has done to our souls. We could not have chosen a more perfect couple to share with. Not only are you two truly "Love Birds" and madly in love, but you are excellent cooks, fun to be with, kind, loving and very giving. Each meal was spectacular with your special touch. You both have such unique personalities and make complete strangers feel like family. We will return home knowing we made great friends in St. Thomas.
May all the love and warmth that you give to others come back to you now and always. XOX
Thanks again for the wonderful trip... With Love and Gratitude, Barney & Gina Lee Kister, Chesterfield, MO
P.S. No more Ouzzo!!! (ever)

Thanks for putting up with us especially the "singing". We've seen a lot of islands and left plenty to come back and see again. Great sailing with the windy weather we had, did some water skiing, snorkeling and swimming. Drank plenty of rum punches and had lots of good food including the conch fritters. Rob, UK
My favorite was Willy T's, where I was chatted up by Simone. I also like the Rock restaurant. I would like to take Curt and Victoria home to cook my grub all the time. Steve, UK

What a wonderful week in paradise! Gorgeous weather, scenery, water, & sights. Curt & Victoria were exceptional & definitely made our vacation on of the verybest we've ever had! This was a carefree, casual, & stress free holiday. We now know the real definition of "wet and wild!" And we will most definitely be back.
Love, Bill & Kristen Clark
Thank you so much for giving us just what we were looking for this vacation! Our own private stretches of beach, wonderful food, a great time! You both are wonderful! Also we found that we don't have to go to the bar to have sex on the beach!
