EXPERTISE SETS US APART

Lynne Campbell, Managing Director and Broker, has over 25 years of key industry experience, including 16 years in business as the Owner & Lead Broker of Carefree Yacht Charters. When she founded the company in 2006, she had just emerged from a successful 12-year crew tenure, and wanted nothing more than to continue sharing the magic of chartering with clients. Through determination and a passion for success, Lynne quickly elevated Carefree Yacht Charters® to its current and consistent standing as a top Crewed Yacht Charter Company in the BVI, USVI and Caribbean. Feedback from her extensive list of clients, a tight knit relationship with her hand-picked crews and key managers, plus attendance at major crewed charter yacht shows in the BVI & USVI each year, allow her to continually streamline her list of recommended yachts and crews. Based on years of experience on both sides of the business, she understands that the crew is what creates the real magic aboard and with that, she's constantly trying to get to know the crews that she's recommending for clients on a more personal level. With 16 years as a Broker and the majority of those as a top broker within the industry, Lynne has navigated her clients through it all. This includes countless blue sky charter days, but additionally includes navigation through some major hurricanes as well as the covid pandemic. Her repeat clients have come to rely on Lynne's expertise to not only guide them in times of smooth sailing, but more importantly, through any unforeseen stormy weather that might be just beyond the horizon.

A family that we booked aboard 52' Catamaran Grace said:

Both Lynne and her husband were incredibly responsive, by far the most 'on top' of the communication protocols over all the other brokers I reached out to at the start of the process. Lynne is the perfect balance of authority, active listener and deal closer that makes an expense of this magnitude feel 'comfortable' and something that will provide deep value. I felt like I had a partner who was as invested in this experience as my family. Thank you much, You did a really wonderful job.

More about Your Carefree Team

Lynne Campbell, Crewed Charter Expert

LYNNE CAMPBELL: Managing Director | Broker The Visionary & Team Captain
Lynne founded Carefree Yacht Charters® in 2006. She is the visionary of the company, and she quite literally eats, sleeps and breaths charters. While she serves as the Team Leader, Lynne prefers to get her hands dirty and remain a part of every piece of the entire charter process from start to finish. Her clients can rely on her to be there from the initial point of contact until the moment they step aboard, plus for everything and anything in between. It’s what the crews in the industry have come to know Lynne for and what many of our clients continually rave about. Lynne's been an Active Member of CYBA since 2010 (Charter Yacht Brokers Association), an Active Member of IYBA since 2013 (the International Yacht Brokers Association) plus an Active Member of VIPCA since its inception (Virgin Islands Professional Charter Association). Lynne additionally served on the CYBA Board as the PR Chair from 2013 to 2017 and the VIPCA Board as Broker Director from 2019 to 2021.


Jim Grant, Crewed Charter Expert

JIM GRANT: Client & Crew Liaison | Broker The Powerhouse
Jim is our powerhouse, a true people person and quite simply, nothing makes him happier than delivering on a trip of a lifetime. He enjoys working closely with our clients as well as the crews across the fleet, making sure that our Team is aligning the right client and crew match from the get-go. He also has a well-established and close working relationship with our key managers. Having captained and managed yachts for the past 15 years, Jim is our logical thinker and problem solver. He also understands the value and the true meaning of customer service and with that, he also realizes that flexibility is an essential component across every sector of the charter business. During his Captain tenure and when Lynne would have a special request or question about one of her upcoming charters with Jim, he would always answer with “Yes!”, followed immediately by… “What was the question?” Our clients can rely on Jim to ensure that they’re well aligned to start with and that the charter process and the vacation itself feel seamless.


Amanda Grant, Crewed Charter Expert

AMANDA GRANT: Client & Crew Administrator | Broker The Brains Of The Business
Amanda is our organizer and the brains of the business. She possesses an intimate understanding of the crewed yacht charter business, prides herself on providing top-notch customer service in an effortless way, and our clients can rest assured that she’ll be paying close attention to even the smallest of details throughout the entire charter process. An engineer by trade, Amanda is an excellent communicator and the critical thinker in the group. Given this skill set, she's continuously finding ways to improve our systems and up our game. She enjoys the art of making sure that our clients are fully educated and prepared for their upcoming charter and in addition, that the crews are fully aware of exactly who we’re sending their way. She is the one that ensures that everyone has the right tools in hand to ensure a successful charter experience. Having served as Chef aboard yachts for 15 years, Amanda also has an artsy side and understands that while you need to start with the best ingredients in order to put together a trip of a lifetime, that the presentation and delivery of the charter itself are the icing on the cake and the very things that memories of a lifetime are made of.


Joe Campbell, Crewed Charter Expert

JOE CAMPBELL: DIRECTOR OF FINANCE | CO-FOUNDER The Chief Of Fun!
Joe is our “CFO” at Carefree Yacht Charters, the F standing for Fun as well as Financial! Joe has been Lynne's husband for 37 years, her partner in the founding of Carefree Yacht Charters in 2006, plus has served as an invaluable consultant since Carefree's inception. It was Joe's passion for the ocean, sailing and diving that led Joe and Lynne towards the charter industry in the first place. Joe crafted his plan back in 1988, while working as a nuclear engineering consultant in Texas: to buy a boat and sail the world! From there, Joe & Lynne became Dive Instructors, bought a boat, fell into chartering, and never looked back. Having spent 16 years as a Broker plus the previous 12 years as a Captain and Dive Instructor aboard their own highly successful crewed yachts, Joe understands first-hand what it takes to create a trip of a lifetime. As past guests and current clients would tell you, Joe has an inherent passion to put the client first and to over-deliver on charter. Quite simply, this motto provided the foundation for Carefree Yacht Charters along with the Team's continual pursuit of excellence.



A St. Thomas based Clearinghouse Manager/Owner told one of his crews the following about Lynne's brokerage:

Lynne and her team are one of the best broker teams in our industry, and they are a very powerful partner to have on our side. They expect us to go above and beyond with our services, and they set up charters in a way that allows us to capitalize on that success.
Dare B., Virgin Islands

Lynne is exceptional at what she does! The entire process of planning our trip was stress free and effortless. Lynne communicated well through the entire planning process, from booking the boat, recommendations on flights and water taxi reservations. She responded quickly to texts, calls and emails, answering all of our questions and providing reassurance with any concerns. She is polite, kind, respectful and extremely helpful. We absolutely felt cared for every step of the way!

I have been on 6-7 charter boats in the Caribbean and the Greek Islands. The last two charters I used you to book my trips and don't think I have ever been taken care of so well. From the initial inquiry, to answering questions, addressing special requests, following up and even checking with the charter crew to make sure I boarded the charter and disembarked. You are professional, thorough, and attentive....thank you. You and I both know that the success of a charter is greatly dependent upon the crew of the charter and I can say this trip was extremely successful!! Thank you again, Lynne....for another wonderfilled, memorable trip!!

Especially with your guidance and help. You were so helpful and guided us through the whole process and made it so easy step by step. Otherwise, we would have been lost. We really appreciated your prompt and thorough responses to our many questions! Doug and Val ended up being a perfect match for our crew. I would love to sign up for your newsletter.

Our group of (5) couples' experience last week on Justified Horizon was truly amazing.

First, I want to thank you for your heroics in finding another charter on such short notice.

Obviously we were pushed back a year due to Covid and had to jump through some hoops to make it happen, but your clear instructions and willingness to talk with us so we were clear was just great. I know Tyler spoke very highly of you and your company as well. You made it very easy for us to have a successful and memorable trip. I’ve already recommended you and the Seahome to many people when asked on the islands who set up the trip and how they should contact you. All the best!

As always, it was a remarkable vacation. We also want to thank you personally for everything you did to help us navigate the Covid policies and procedures in the USVI and BVI and coordinating all the ground and water transportation. All your contacts were competent and professional, so everything went smoothly. Thanks again,

First of all, the trip exceeded our expectations in every way. We also do not feel like we gave up anything in not going to the BVI and only sailing the USVI. Yes, there were probably some great things in the BVI, but every day and every stop in the USVI was great. Hopefully, we plan to do another charter - where and when, we do not know - in a couple of years. Lynne, thanks for your help as well. Your communications and understanding of the COVID situation were great.

A group of couples that we booked aboard 67' Catamaran My Ty for New Years 2021-2022 said:
We literally just finished the trip of a lifetime aboard the chartered yacht My Ty over New Year's 2021/22. Let me start by saying everything was made possible by booking through Lynne Campbell of Carefree Yacht Charters. She went way above and beyond in her support of us on this trip. Obviously because of Covid, logistics can be made more difficult, especially when leaving the US, but Lynne coordinated everything for us to perfection, including working on finding private water taxis, booking hotels and even a private island flight when we thought that may be possible (luckily that wasn't necessary). And at the very end, when we were 5 days out and unfortunately the Captain of our crew contracted Covid, Lynne, given her incredible experience and knowledge of the industry, was able to coordinate a replacement Captain and Chef to lead My Ty. It was miraculous and allowed us to ultimately experience the greatest trip of our lives. We cannot wait to do it all again!

We had a fantastic experience - topped all expectations!! Lynne at Carefree was excellent at listening and delivering. She kept the momentum going in what turned out to be a full year of planning and prepping for 19 of us on this trip. She was very thorough and helped us better understand just how special these kinds of vacations can be. Well done!!

Once again Carefree Yacht Charters helped us find the perfect charter! We spoke with Lynne multiple times talking about what our hopes and expectations were for this trip which was more complicated given that it was 19 people and three boats. We could not have been happier with the outcome. This was a five-star experience and we hope to be able to book another charter with Carefree Yacht Charters and Hannah and Tom again in the future :-) Thanks again Lynne!!!

Finally getting back into the swing. Pretty hard to do after such a wonderful trip! We can’t say enough positive things about our trip. It was perfectly designed for our adventurous family. We loved working with you! The communication was very helpful in outlining the COVID protocols and what we would need. So grateful for the perfect match of boat to our family. You also have a wonderful reputation with the crew - they said you are one of the most thorough, easy to work with, honest and detail oriented brokers out there. We have already given your name out multiple times. Thanks for the bottom of all of our hearts!

We had the best vacation of our lives aboard the Anastasia with Ryan and Lesli as our crew. First of all, Lynne, your able management and impeccable communication made for a seamless pre-trip experience. The preference forms you and Lesli and Ryan provided gave us a chance to customize our experience and gave Ryan and Lesli a chance to learn more about how we like to eat and what we like to do. Our week on the Anastasia will be a cherished memory for our family for years to come. We absolutely hope to replicate it in the future, but nothing will ever replace our incredible first time charter experience. Thank you, Lynne, Ryan and Lesli, for making it happen. All our best,

I will not even attempt to write anything else since Eloise captured it so well in her email. It was truly the most wonderful and enjoyable trip, and we are so grateful to you, Lesli and Ryan for all that you did for the trip. We look forward to plotting our next trip with you! Best,

A repeat client and family that we booked aboard 50' Catamaran Gambit for Christmas 2021 said:
You have serviced our family for many years but this trip you outdid yourself!!! Covid threw its own set of problems into the mix which required you to prepare us for all the U.S and British requirements. We are very, very grateful to you for the way you took control of the situation when our flight delays and missing bag made it impossible to make our way to Tortola on Sunday. You had a taxi at the airport to take us to a hotel you found and booked for us. But most of all it was your call while we were at the airport telling me the steps you had taken and then, in spite of a social engagement with your husband, you gave me permission to call your cell at any time. It is difficult to put into words the impact that call had on me. You let me know that it would all be OK, and it was not necessary for me to be so distressed by this turn of events. Your sympathy and understanding were exactly what I needed at that moment. So, I give you an A+++ for this holiday and feel that we have an entire new group of friends in Val, Doug and you. It was just a lovely holiday with our family, and we greatly appreciate the efforts you made to make it so. Best,
Michael B., California

I volunteered to send this email on behalf of the group as we are all in agreement when we say the week on The Respite was absolutely PERFECT. This starts with the planning process through you which was organized, seamless, and transparent. The response times on our questions were quick and informative which is a testament to you and did not get lost on us. I honestly believe you had a good sense of our group and helped match the perfect boat and crew to our "vibe" through your dialogue with Heidi. This extends to helping plan Kristina's 40th party which also turned out to be fantastic and most likely out of scope for your remit, but you did it anyway. We simply cannot thank you enough....

Well, I can’t say enough about how wonderful our trip was. This was our third charter and it was an awesome experience for all of us. After the first charter, I remember saying how that was truly the trip of a lifetime and we could never top it but, as they say, “never say never”. I have told many friends about our trip and they always ask who I used to book it with and my response is always the same: "I wouldn’t use anyone but Carefree Yacht Charters". Sounds like a commercial but it's the truth. You have always been available for questions and your suggestions and recommendations are always spot on. You make the whole process a breeze. In summary, our entire time on board the Anastasia yacht was something out of a dream. Thanks again for all you did to make it happen.

I placed this on Google Reviews: Lynne Campbell of Carefree Charters truly made the transaction ‘carefree’ and made sure we were comfortable all the way through. Her local knowledge, suggestions and attention to detail really made the booking and charter process enjoyable. Will definitely use Carefree again!

Lynne was a phenomenal guide (the Charter Sherpa we needed) from start to end and was very insightful and patient as we figured out what boat and crew would be the perfect trip for our family of 5 for a special trip. She helped us quickly narrow down a few boats based on our preferences and understand the process all the way to the contract and insurance as well as other important logistics. It was an epic trip on all fronts and we can't recommend strongly enough Lynne and Grace with the magnificent team of Joseph, Britta and Zoie.

You were correct to say we would enjoy the Exumas, we can't say enough about those islands, a perfect place to relax in Paradise. As you can see after being with Stu and Hannah and Sea Boss after our 1st day of our trip we decided to book the BVI's for another 10 day Charter in January on Sea Boss.

More to come - but want to thank you for the pairing - you nailed it. Also - newsletter sounds great.

Few thoughts that might help. Lynne of Carefree Yacht Charters was the reason the McCarthy family got connected to Grace and her Crew. Both Lynne and her husband were incredibly responsive, by far the most 'on top' of the communication protocols over all the other brokers I reached out to at the start of the process. Lynne is the perfect balance of authority, active listener and deal closer that makes an expense of this magnitude feel 'comfortable' and something that will provide deep value (I mean, let's face it, after travel, diving, additional gratuity, and week expense we just bought a really nice used car 🙂) Having said that, there is no doubt in my mind the value equation is totally on the side of the guests when it comes to Grace. Also, very grateful that the 'owner, operator, clearing house and broker' were understanding of the COVID19 situation, the nuisance of limited travel (no BVI) and the ongoing concerns and uncertainty in the overall economy. I felt like I had a partner who was as invested in this experience as my family. Thank you much, You did a really wonderful job.

I will add to the feedback from my fellow Seahomies, with a slightly different perspective as the primary trip planner….Carefree Yacht Charters is the bomb! This was my 3rd BVI Charter, and the 2nd Charter I was responsible for planning. There is no doubt that you will help me plan Charter #4. Your past experience as a crew and your knowledge of the Charter industry makes it easy for me to look good as the planner. I feel a lot of personal responsibility when I’m on point to organize a trip when close friends are entrusting me with their investment of time and money for a vacation. As I share my experiences with others, I am actively recommending Carefree Yacht Charters to friends and colleagues that want to take a trip like this. I will be in touch regrading trip #4. I have a basic philosophy that life is an accumulation of experiences. Brand, Jayde, and Carefree Yacht Charters have contributed several of the top 10 experiences that make me feel like I am living life to the fullest. Thank you helping make this trip happen. Thank you for the smiles and memories that you enabled. Until trip #4....

This vacation was a dream come true for us. If we had constructive criticism, we would surely share it with you. However, everything was just perfect. Lynne, you matched us with a boat and crew that fit us just right. You were always so easily available, and made the process of booking very easy. Having the logistics of a trip taken care of, you really allowed us to be carefree in the time leading up to the trip. The pick up from the airport and hotel and boat was a nice touch. The company is well named. We joked that this once in a lifetime trip was going to ruin all other vacations in the future. Everything else would just pale in comparison. So, we will simply have to do it again. We couldn't even imagine doing another trip without Lynne, Jamie and Susannah. We will be in touch. Thank you again.

Where on earth do I begin? We booked our catamaran boat trip through Carefree Yacht Charters with Jamie and Susannah on Island Hoppin almost a year in advance. So believe me when the day came to begin our trip we were more then ready and excited to go! The islands and coves we visited and moored in, left permanent images of beauty in our minds and hearts, sunsets to beat all sunsets and a sense of being so far removed from reality that there was no room for worry. Someone once defined luxury as "the absence of worry" well that is what Jamie, Susannah and Island Hoppin provided for us... complete and total luxury! A big thank you to Lynne from Carefree Yacht Charters for connecting us with this wonderful boat and crew! Best regards from the Island Hoppin "Hotties"

This was our fourth time to the Virgin Islands on a chartered boat. (1994, 1999, 2004, 2019). This trip was by far the most enjoyable! Overall, from your help in selecting the boat and crew, all the way back to the dock, we had a stress-free trip. A perfect vacation for our family’s “last” spring break trip before everyone graduates and starts work. Thank you for making it so easy!

Trip was absolutely wonderful. The cruise was different from the first one we did. Ryan showed us a few different things and seemed like a totally different trip.

What an amazing trip we had! In the beginning of this process, as I did my research, I began emailing different charter companies to get an idea of cost, experience, and boats. I heard back from about five different charter companies but you stood out above the rest. This was our first charter that we have ever done and I needed some guidance. I just want to thank you for all of your extra work and effort in trying to find the right fit for our family! I would highly recommend your charter service and we would use you again in the future! You were very helpful in the process!! Thanks again,

Our recent trip to the BVI turned out perfectly. Much appreciation to your initial suggestions and guidance that led us to the Great Adventure, a 450 Lagoon that was very clean, well-appointed and sea-worthy in every regard. Nice to have a vessel where everything works and our group of 3 couples fit very nicely in our state rooms and on-deck. Our venture started with 4 possible companies and quickly narrowed to Carefree Yacht Charters because of the clear and quick information you provided to us for our first-time sail. Your communication throughout the planning stage was very timely, professional and accurate, and your guidance on what to expect was perfect. Our group has power boated for many years and this would be a first sail venture and boating where we were not in charge. It was a welcomed departure from our boating routine.

I doubt we could’ve ever Imagined, when Don first spoke to you, we would be returning from our trip to BVIs to tell our friends we had the ultimate perfect vacation on the Soterion. We have to give a huge amount of credit to you for finding the perfect boat and matching us with Rachel and Ben, two amazing people. Thank you all. Don and I have traveled much of the world and I have to say this was definitely one of my most favorite vacations. I already told my husband I want to come back on the Soterion in the near future. After all, what more can parents/grandparents ask for than to watch their family wake up in the morning and go to bed at night with huge smiles having enjoyed the day and knowing the next day was going to be just as much fun. In Friendship,

First off, I would like to commend you on your outstanding customer service and fabulous recommendation on our charter.

Visiting the virgin islands via catamaran was breathtaking... scenery, snorkeling, private beaches, island hopping, lobster dinner on the beach... these were just some of the highlights! The most relaxed trip our family has ever taken! Thank you Lynne!

We have chartered sail boats in the Caribbean over a dozen times and three of those were with two generations, including some cousins. Our general conclusion is that this week long experience on two catamarans could not have been better! The two crews easily met all of our preferences for sailing, family activities, food, and overall provided a fun experience for everyone. Regarding your services, you confirmed our initial impression of the Island Hoppin’ crew (Jamie and Sue), and then suggested an equally good crew/boat for the tandem charter (Tyler and Kelsey). You also stayed in frequent communication and made sure all the details were covered and that the contracting and payment process was timely. Thank you. Overall, several adults observed that, “it could not have been better!” We agree.

This trip was the best vacation I've ever had with my family. We have grown children living all over the US and never get to spend enough time with them. This trip gave me the luxury of all of us being together under one roof while being completely pampered and spoiled by the beautiful boat, the scenery, and Jamie and Susannah. And thank you Lynne, for being so incredibly organized. We feel we could not be in better hands. You took great care of us from the beginning to end. You rock.

Wow. Where do we start? Best vacation ever. Amazing. You can just keep adding superlatives and they still would not be enough to explain how great this trip was. Overall, the greatest part of this vacation was just being able to spend so much quality time with the family. By not having to always go back and forth between hotel room, restaurant and activity site, we could just relax and enjoy, and had so much extra time to play and hang out. By being on our own schedule we could spend as much time as we wanted doing the activities we wanted to do. Thank you Lynne for finding the perfect charter for our family. We cannot wait to sail again!

Thank you for working what was magic in your pairing our family with Gambit for our recent Thanksgiving charter. The charter far exceeded our expectations…and that is saying something coming from 14 and 16 year old high school students !!! From the time we were greeted on the dock @ Yacht Haven Grande in St. Thomas by Doug and Val until we disembarked, our Thanksgiving holiday is one we will never forget. We would highly recommend (and already have !!!!) not only your knowledge of the charter industry and professionalism, but specifically the charter yacht Gambit and Doug and Val Fairfield to anyone who is seeking an “Over the Top” vacation of a lifetime.

First off we can't thank you enough for the tireless work you do for your clients. This year was even more challenging with the hurricanes last fall which caused so much havoc to the islands. You worked tirelessly to find us another boat after the first one was out of commission due to the storms, and once again you nailed it with the new boat and crew. This was our second charter with you and I would never consider another broker to help us plan our trips. We never feel out of the loop dealing with you and Joe, all calls and emails are responded to promptly, and most importantly you listen to the clients needs, and always deliver honest advice even if the client doesn't like it. We always appreciated the openness and honesty. Once again thank you so much for booking this trip for us, we truly do appreciate you!

Observing other boats at the anchorages, we never suffered from “boat envy”! I want to thank you and Joe for protecting our interests after the hurricanes of 2017. You did a terrific job matching the crew with our family and Le Reve was indeed a beautiful boat. Richard and Adele were very complimentary of you and the service you provide. You are one of their trusted industry friends. Thanks again and please keep in touch.

The crew on every charter we’ve been on always rave about you as their favorite broker as well. Thank you for making these trips so easy and for steering us to fantastic crews and boats like Island Hoppin’! Thanks again Lynne. We are really hoping to sail with Jamie and Susannah again in the near future.

I want to share that this vacation was the most fun and relaxing vacation I have ever taken. The whole experience was wonderful. The boat was very well equipped, and both Jay and I would recommend Stop Work Order and your services to any of our friends interested in this type of vacation. We just gave your contact information to some friends who saw our video!

I have to say, again, Lynne, how much I appreciated your willingness to work with us with everything you had going on with the re-build down there. You made our trip and experience 'a breeze' (pardon the pun :). I'll be chartering again for my son's graduation in 2020 and would be happy to work with you again! Many, many thanks!

A group of couples that we booked aboard 45' Catamaran Great Adventure in April, 2018 said:
With this being our first charter, we were a bit nervous and apprehensive on how to book a boat. After speaking with a few brokers, we ultimately landed on Carefree Yacht Charters. Lynne’s personality and patience with us first timers was what ultimately made the decision. The process was easy the entire way through. From selecting our initial boat all the way to a prompt follow-up the day we disembarked to ensure we had a great experience – and everything in between. Lynne spent a tremendous amount of time getting to know us so she could set us up with a boat and crew that delivered an amazing experience. Safe to say we’d book with Carefree again and would highly recommend!

The trip was amazing! Better than we had dreamed of and it was all because of the crew. We are planning to book with that boat again in a year or so. It was unbelievable.

The charter was amazing. Would totally book them tomorrow. Carefree Yacht Charters provided excellent service to us prior to our charter. They went over and beyond to help us plan the trip of a lifetime. It was our first charter but I cannot imagine a better captain and crew or boat than ours! Thank you for your service to us and for taking the extra steps to make everything perfect. And the wine worked out great!!! We will want to book them again (possibly Grenadines?). Your thoughts on future travel dates and prices in the next year or so.

The charter was beyond perfect! Words can hardly express how wonderful our entire charter experience with you and Carefree has been! From the very beginning you were so incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions and meeting my entire groups needs. After hurricanes Irma and Maria hit the islands you were so reassuring of my worries and you were right, the Islands are rebounding quickly. It felt great to be there helping out the island economy. Thank you again for helping make my 50th birthday something to truly remember forever!

We had a really great time and loved the boat. All in all, a fantastic week. It's not easy to please 7 fairly different people but they did.

We had a fabulous vacation aboard Bagheera. Our entire family of 8 agreed it was our best vacation ever! We loved the casualness of just getting up in the morning, putting on our swimsuits, or bathrobes, having breakfast and starting the day. Our vacation aboard the Bagheera not only met our expectations, it far exceeded them. Thanks Lynne, for your help in coordinating this trip! We couldn’t be happier!
Darlene L., Virginia

A family that we booked aboard 52' Catamaran Island Hoppin' in mid February, 2018 said:
Our family started looking into and planning a chartered sailing trip a year ago. We knew we wanted to sail in the British Virgin Islands, as we had done 30 years prior. In doing our research on charter companies we found Carefree Yacht Charters and Lynne. Lynne was a pleasure to work with; her professionalism and knowledge about the yachts she represented was impressive. She worked closely with us to find a yacht that would be the right fit for our family of 6 that included two teenagers, 13 and 15. When Hurricane Irma hit the islands Lynne kept in regular contact with us and provided timely updates about the yacht we had booked for our February trip. Unfortunately, the yacht we had chosen was not able to sail after all due to damage from the hurricane. In the midst of the damage and recovery efforts, Lynne went above and beyond to find the perfect yacht and crew for our trip. After attending the November Boat Show in St. Thomas, she recommended Island Hoppin’ for our trip. We went forward with her recommendation and couldn’t be happier with our choice.

A family that we booked aboard 52' Catamaran Island Hoppin' in early February, 2018 said:
I can't say enough about this vessel. We suffered no boat envy in any of the mooring fields we visited and I would occasionally just walk about the deck touching things and feeling pride in just having the sense to go with such a vessel even though it was mostly a combination of just luck and your good work in getting me there. I'd be surprised if your ears were not burning during our charter as Sus, Jamie and I were all talking about your professionalism and other great qualities during the charter. I've already given out your name and company to interested people.

This was the vacation of a lifetime and we all know it. It was magical in a way that you can only understand if you were there with us. I have and I will continue to recommend a vacation aboard Pelican to everyone I know.

Thank you, thank you thank you, from the bottom of my heart for being a part of this most wonderful memory!

First of all, I want to express how much I appreciate ALL you did to make our BVI vacation a trip of a lifetime. From the first phone call to the last, you were patient with all my questions and had all the answers needed to made the decision making much simpler on our end. As this was our first charter, we had no idea where to start and how to proceed. You made the process fun and exciting - most importantly...you instilled trust. Even through the chaos with the hurricanes and all the uncertainty they brought, you were always available and continued to communicate updates which gave us the confidence to move forward. Although we were just one small charter in your busy business, your personal attention and constant accessibility made us feel important and valued. I have already referred a couple friends to Carefree and we will most certainly turn to you for our next trip.

As the "birthday boy" on this trip I'd like to echo Libby's comments. The whole trip was absolutely fantastic and was made even better by Conor and Taylor and their hospitality and attention to detail.

Thank you for steering Libby to the Great Adventure!

A family that we booked aboard 67' Catamaran Nenne for Christmas, 2017 said:
It was, as I am sure you are not surprised, amazing. Beyond amazing. Thank you for your role in helping us set it up, and for getting us onto the Nenne with Donald and Audrey after the hurricane. We would without question use Carefree Yacht Charters again. When I read a review, I always want to know - Would you recommend it to a friend? And would you do it again? Both, yes, a thousand times yes. Without hesitation. We thought this trip was going to be a once in a lifetime experience. But having now been on it, we now know that is not acceptable, there is no chance that once is enough, and are now just figuring out how and when to do it again.

We had a fabulous trip, Seahome was the perfect choice for our group! First of all, I want to thank you, Lynne, for your patience and helpfulness after hurricane Irma hit, for guiding us how to best tackle plan B and change our trip to the Grenadine Islands. It was a tough decision to make, especially since we are not super familiar with the Caribbean and that part of the world, but are so grateful that we visited the Grenadine Islands - they were lovely and we had a great time. This was an incredible vacation and I look forward to hopefully doing it again, perhaps to explore another part of the Caribbean in the near future.

A multi-repeat client and family that we booked aboard 62' Catamaran Le Reve for New Years 2017/2018 said:
Rich and Adele were really delightful and were so helpful in so many ways. It was actually quite easy having a 5 month old on board, or at least they made it so! The pack and play fit great, and we used the center area inside as home base for her and her toys. Having the galley down below was key for this, as it allowed for the baby to never interfere with the cooking or other items going on there. Look forward to chartering again soon!

A family that we booked aboard 62' Catamaran Anastasia for New Years 2017/2018 said:
We had an incredible time! We all rated it as one of our top family vacations. I really want to thank you.

Anastasia was the perfect catamaran for our trip! Feel sure our family will see them again in the future. Thank you Lynne for all your help,

Every aspect of our (your) charter exceeded our exceptions. Starting with our great luck in finding Carefree Yacht Charters, you made the entire process a pleasure. No question or request seemed too trivial and dealing adroitly with three separate parties went a long way to keep the stress level Very low….always a good thing. Working with us to have the wines we like aboard for our charter (at no extra charge) was greatly appreciated….by both us and the crew (believe we have expanded their “wine horizons”?). Likewise your preference checklist made both meals and beverages more enjoyable. The crew knew in advance of our likes/dislikes and made adjustments accordingly. Carefree Yacht Charters has become our “go to” for yacht charters. Again, Lynne, a most heartfelt thanks for all of your efforts. We all had a spectacular time.

Her insights, crew match making service and hand holding helped to cast us away on a trip of a lifetime. The step by step process and checklist make a daunting task seem easy. Thank you Lynne!

Our trip could not have been better - thank you for setting everything up for us. Our group had never booked a yacht charter before and we really benefited from the advice and guidance of Lynne at Carefree Charters. The suggestions regarding travel, activities, food and drink were all excellent and removed the worry of this first time (but not last time) experience. When it came time to selecting our boat, we had it narrowed down to 3 or 4 boats but found it hard to chose. Lynne gave us suggestions and fantastic advice. We had a great boat but more importantly the crew was incredible. Thanks for everything Lynne.

I don't usually write reviews but this one is five golden stars!

There are certain experiences in everyone's life that are just plain beyond words. The problem is that one word just can't summarize or encompass the full amazingNess of the experience.

The six of us continue to be impressed with the amazing time we had and look forward to our next ocean adventure.

I wanted to send you a quick email to let you know what a wonderful week we had with Luke and Erin on Raven. They are excellent people and really made the trip. You may recall my wife was concerned about two "strangers" being on the boat with us, and at the end of the trip, Megan was crying and hugging Luke and Erin when telling them good-bye. They became part of our family this week. Thanks for a great recommendation.

It was great having you and carefree charters handle our trip. The overall charter experience was incredible. I definitely hope to return to the Braveheart at some point in the future. I can't think of one negative experience on our trip or one negative comment about Carefree or Braveheart. Even the weather was perfect and no one had any control over that. Thanks again to all.
Chris K., Florida



I appreciate all the time YOU took to help get the charter set up as well as your patience with answering our questions and getting us to fill out the preferences sheet. Everyone I dealt with in setting up this vacation as well as executing it were fabulous. We would definitely book the Braveheart for a cruise again with Captain Jerry and Dawn.

A multi-repeat client that we booked aboard 50' Catamaran Pegasus of London in June, 2016 said:
I think your service is fantastic. We have now booked 3 charters through you and all 3 have been fabulous. Your recommendations have been spot on and it is safe to say we completely trust your recommendations. And the communication as far as the contract, pricing, paperwork and preparation for the charter have been excellent on each occasion. When we were booking this trip, I asked you if Pegasus was really worth the higher price compared to the other boats we were considering and you assured us it was because of the crew. You were so right. Also, the crew spoke highly of you. Captain Brand mentioned how when they go to the annual yacht show, you and Joe are the only brokers who take the time to sit down with them and really get to know them. It shows in the quality of your recommendations.

Since I was doing this as a Birthday Surprise for my husband I was very anxious about the outcome. I sent Lynne many emails and she responded immediately. I never had to wait for an answer which put my mind at ease. She helped me every step of the way. No vacation will ever come close to this most amazing experience. We can't stop talking about it!!

As you know from our initial conversation, I had never done a charter previously and as such I was relying completely on you to assist me in making the right decision.

Anyway, I wanted to share with you the above and once again express my utmost thanks.

I want to thank Lynne for helping to make our sailing trip in the B.V.I's in May/June of 2016 a smooth sail (pun intended). Not only was she patient with us, she had to work with us in the U.S. and our friends in Canada, waiting patiently for the two couples to get all forms completed and submitted to her. She was willing to work with us with every hiccup that came our way. She was always quick to respond to any email or phone call I had made with the many questions we had. Once on board Two if by Sea (TIBS for short), the crew Tyler and Kelsey could not have spoken more highly of Lynne and Carefree Yacht Charters, that too is a testimonial in itself. We hope to be able to book another sailing trip and if we do it will definitely be with Lynne and Carefree Yacht Charters. Thanks again Lynne, it was great working with you!

Lynne at Carefree Yacht Charters was very helpful throughout the simple process. We were kept informed throughout and sent friendly reminders when our deposits were due which was nice for us to plan into our budget for the year. She even kept us informed about extras like fishing permits in case we were interested. We were not but if you are it's important to get your permits in advance. We were sent forms to fill out with our preferences for meals and activities. This was helpful too so that we didn't have to make those types of decisions during our vacation.

We feel very fortunate that we chose you as our broker. Honestly, I was very concerned initially.
Fortunately, you quickly settled my nerves and I was convinced that I had made the best choice.
1) you were an attentive listener and asked great questions (the single most important thing that must be done, in my opinion)
2) you provided timely information, never making me feel that I was taking too much of your time
3) you gave me choices and you were never "pushy"
4) you answered my many questions, and what you didn't know, you didn't hesitate to contact the Captain directly to get the answers
5) your contract was well written, which was reassuring
6) for 6 months and up until the very end, you stayed in touch with reminders of my responsibilities and important dates
We are very grateful for your work on our behalf.

Brad and Lesli could not have been any more perfect. Thank you for suggesting them. We can't wait to come back. As always, thank you for making it all so simple and for pointing us in the right direction. Another slam dunk. Till next time.

Our charter on Quest was perfect. We also appreciate how carefully Carefree Yacht Charters helped us choose the right yacht, personally visiting the yacht and interviewing the crew members, making recommendations, and keeping us in the loop as different scenarios played out. I felt very confident that Carefree Yacht Charters kept our best interests a priority throughout the whole booking process and would highly recommend them to our friends.

A family that we booked aboard 46' Catamaran Starfish in February, 2015 said:
Since we had never chartered or visited the BVI, we weren't sure how to begin or what to expect. When we were doing our initial research, we found your website to be extremely helpful, which is what led us to reach out to you (versus other brokers). From the start, we appreciated your responsiveness, as well as all the insight and suggestions you were able to share, which ultimately led to our choice of Starfish. For us, I think it was the perfect choice.

Booking seemed very easy. Anytime we needed to do something (pay, fill out preference list), a gentle reminder went out. Instructions were precise. Anyone could book this trip without any problems. In fact I have already passed along information to a physician I work with who noticed my tan when I got home! It was truly the perfect vacation. I can't imagine anything could have made it any better!

The ENTIRE vacation was SPECTACULAR!! From first reaching out to you via email and phone, talking with you, to you explaining many unknowns, to traveling, to pick-up, to 6 GLORIOUS DAYS of sailing USVI/BVI's...to returning home..everything was easy and NOT ONE GLITCH! Thank you to you all for taking such good care of us on our ANNIVERSARY CRUISE! No doubt, we will do this again!

I also want to tell you what an amazing job you did of organizing our trip. Without you I don't think this trip would have happened! You did such a great job especially considering the time constraint you were working with! Thank you for working so quickly and efficiently for making our dream vacation a reality!!
