As Nautical Bob’s protégées, we are delighted to see this book.  We were small boat sailors without the big boat experience when we went on our first charter trip with Bob and Kathleen in 1996.  Since then we have made nearly a dozen charter trips.  As Bob says, ‘it is easier than you think,’ especially since “How to Bareboat” makes the planning process 'no problem, mon.'  Even as veteran cruisers, we found many useful tips and ideas in Bob’s book. If you can’t be on the boat with Bob, at least take his book along.  Michael & Greta Mittman - Flying Scot South -Dallas TX

I wish Bob’s book had been available to us when we first sailed in the BVI.  He has taken 99% of the hassle and uncertainty out of the planning process. His menus, matched to shopping lists, which also take into account what provisions and services are available in each location, are simply brilliant.  His “Float Plans” with daily recommendations for anchorages and what to do ashore are spot on to capture the quintessential BVI experiences. And I applaud his mission to get more of us small boat sailors into the big boats (but only for vacation)… it truly is easier than you think, but made even more so with Bob’s expert guidance and up-to-date information.  Greg Fisher - North Sails

Buffet Trivia Answer: Mañana

But women and water are in short supply
There's not enough dope for us all to get high
I hear it gets better, that's what they say
As soon as we sail on to Cane Garden Bay.

Please don't say mañana if you don't mean it
I have heard your lines for so very long
Don't try to describe the scenery if you've never seen it
Don't ever forget that you just may wind up in my song.

Called all my friends on those cheap nightly rates
Sure was good to talk to the old United States
While the lights of St. Thomas lie twenty miles west
I see General Electric's still doing their best.
