What do people say?

Most amazing experience you will have with best of both worlds: sailing and skiing. Best crew, beautiful boat. Something for on your bucket list.

5/5
Sailing on board of the Whisper has been an unparalleled outdoor experience for me. I truly enjoyed the warm and welcoming sailorman ship by both Oliver and Luuk during an ocean’s crossover for more than two weeks. At all times they managed to create a safe environment without losing the pursuit for adventure and making the most out of the situations that emerged. They naturally ignited a spark in the rest of the crew with their passion for sailing to little explored regions and graciously shared their expertise and knowledge. This contributed not only to a memorable but also insightful journey!

Absolutely the craziest adventure I've been on in 2022. Luuk and Olivier are amazing hosts (also great ups for the hard working crew on board like Erin!!) and make sure you're comfortable on the Moondance. The beds are super comfy (very important to me, ha!) and the boat is very well built. I cannot wait to go back!
