I had a really lovely stay whilst staying on Wilson. Unfortunately we were unable to sail due to repairs, however this did not hinder the memorable experience I had. I learnt new skills, whilst having the opportunity to meet some really lovely people. The community on board is very welcoming, friendly and super chilled and I would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone.

I enjoyed having Sofia onboard my yacht. She was involved in daily activities and enjoyed getting involved in the projects and maintenance on the boat including sanding and painting. Any host will be happy with this beautiful woman. I recommend her to all hosts and hope she enjoys her time travelling.

I had a great time on Wilson. Ian is very kind and welcoming person and I felt comfortable the whole time. Unfortunately we couldn't sail but we had free access to a resort with pool, gym and yoga classes! I really enjoyed my time with our little crew and would love to come back for sailing one day!

Although my time with Ian and Wilson was short, I feel truly happy and honored to have had the opportunity to sail on board. Ian is a wonderful personβ€”kind, caring, and welcoming from the very first moment. He's incredibly patient and takes the time to explain everything you need to know. Communication with him before I started volunteering was also smooth and easy. Life on Wilson was calm and peaceful. I especially loved our shared meals and evening conversations. It's a unique experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend it!
