Our
first sailing charter was one of the most delightful
weeks in our lives. Yes the Grenadines are lovely;
the turquoise seas gorgeous, the palm-treed beaches
enchanting, the villages quaint and the people
friendly. But to visit such a paradise on the
beautifully built and immaculately maintained S/Y
Genesis, in the exquisite company of Petr and Tracy
Stejskal was divine.
While the wind and sea conditions did not inspire us to spend much time in the water, the weather gave us other benefits. Petr had the opportunity to demonstrate his superb seamanship and to give us exhilarating rides at high speed. His love of sailing shone from his face. And the memories of our time we had to spend with the lovely and vivacious Tracy will live with us for a long time. The sumptuous cuisine prepared by Tracy was a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds. She has acquired a large and varied menu of dishes she excels at cooking and presenting. We ate like royalty! Petr and Tracy are a great team. There is much to do on a boat and even more with guests. Petr takes the lead on sailing with Tracy as crew, while both Tracy and Petr look after the guests and maintain the habitat. They were always at work seamlessly preparing food, cleaning up after meals, housekeeping the boat and the guest quarters, and catering to our needs and wishes. We were pampered and spoiled, and we are not ashamed to admit ‘w e l i k e d i t.’ The only downside to the voyage is that any chance of us ever chartering a different boat has been lost – we just could not choose second best. We wish you, Petr and Tracy, good health, safe passage, and much success in the future. Your new friends, Diana and Ken GENESIS CHARTER FEB 20-27, 2009 Another successful charter!!!! Thank you both for all of you help! Tracy n' Petr on GENESIS February 2009 We had dinner with Felicity and Joe last night - Caribbean theme in the cold of England - great fun!!!! Joe and Felicity kept on talking about how wonderful you were all evening and so I even think the other two couples were getting enthusiastic.!! Joe gave me a copy of the letter he has written to you both - which is a wonderful testimonial. Well done, you certainly made a hit with them and Joe said how thoughtful and kind you were to him all the time and anticipated their every move. Joe said he only had one complaint - there was too much wonderful food!!! I saw Joe's superb photographs and now I know what you both look like and saw Genesis and photographs of some of the wonderful meals you prepared Tracy - all looked such fun. I hope that I can get more charters for you and I hope you have a Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year. December 2008
"When we finally
reached Union Island after a wonderful trip through Bequia,
Mustique, The Cays, PSV, you reached into the depths of your
resources to make our every whim and wish come true, 'bakes
included'. WOW! Fabulous meals, beautiful scenery, new friends. An amazing week beginning with the rocking waves to the very end with the rock star. Thanks for creating beautiful memories for us. I'm already scheming for another trip - St Martin perhaps??? Thanks again for an amazing vacation. It will be an anniversary and birthday celebration to remember. October 2008 We have just returned from our trip aboard the Genesis with Tracy and Petr Stejksal. What an amazing week it was! As you know, we had never been on a sailing vessel of any kind – not even a sunset cruise. We wanted to do something special for our 25th wedding anniversary and sailing seemed the best way to see The Grenadines after reviewing other options. So we took the chance and we were not disappointed. There is no question the islands are beautiful but Petr and Tracy’s willingness to share their knowledge of sailing and the area made it that much more enjoyable. They both made us feel comfortable and welcome on their beautiful and immaculate vessel. We thoroughly enjoyed sailing. While sailing, Petr and Tracy, very conversational, would let us know what was about to occur and expect. Their willingness to make sure we were comfortable and at easy was very appreciated. But even before we boarded the boat, I knew we were in capable and professional care. The email to let us know they were expecting us, the list of toiletries we would find on board so we didn’t have to waste space in our luggage for those items, to making arrangements for an island tour. Based on our preference sheet, they were able to make suggestions on the activities we would enjoy at each location no matter where we picked. Such personalized service was amazing. What was even more amazing was the food. “Cook” seems very inadequate for the meals prepared on board by Tracy. More like a feast for your eyes. But we soon learned, divine to eat as well. We looked forward to every meal in anticipation of the creative masterpiece placed before us! No detail overlooked
