André & Magda This has truly been a trip of a lifetime! We have made so many special memories - Matt screaming under water at sharks, seeing schools of spotted rays, feeding enormous pigs from the comfort of the dingy, snorkeling reefs & caves, swimming with and holding nurse sharks!! It has been AMAZING... but you guys are the heart and soul of this trip for us. You took us aboard & treated us like family. You both are truly wonderful. I leave here feeling inspired by your light & joyful approachto life - the awe and love that you have for this life has filled and refreshed me. Thank you for EVERYTHING! With SO much love, JACQUELINE, MATT, OWEN & MILES As much as the weather & wildlife exceeded our expectations, so did you both! Extremely knowledgeable and as kind as can be! You will see us again! Thank you for everything. MATT

We had the most amazing family trip. Magda took care of me when I wasn't feeling well and it made mee feel comfortable and safe on the trip. The most hospitable crew! They ensured we did everything in the face of choppy weather. The food was amazing and beautiful. André's commitment to our safety was comforting on every excursion. So thankful for this unforgettable experience❣️ AZUR This trip is nothing short of amazing. Magda & André made this truly an unforgettable trip. The effort are class put into this is 100% 5star treatment. Heaven on a boat! GABLE I appreciate the kindness and hospitality you two have showed us. It was such an amazing opportunity to learn from the both of you. Exploring the plane was one if the best experiences of my life. There was such amazing fish I never thought I'd see. It felt surreal being able to explore something so amazing. The food and atmosphere added another 100 points to this experience. I will never forget these adventures and I hope you two can keep giving people this wonderful opportunity. Thank you. SOPHIE December 16, 2025 André & Magda..Building the right chemistry for a 6-person catamaran trip, especially for family - takes some "special spices" for the trip to go smoothly. From the first "whatsapp" message I was put at ease that we had a very special team. Our Bahamas family excursion had special significance and you both made that happen. We felt a part of your family. Your warmth, care, attention to detail, sense of humor and appreciation for individuality. Thank you for creating a magical experience for our group. We WILL be back! ZURI3 is the best for WE! CHRISTINA André & Magda You both have shown us the greatest trip ever. I have never been on a vacation with hospitalaty like this. The stories, jokes and memories I will remember forever! I appreciate so much the places we've been shown, the amazing food we've got to enjoy and the coolest animals. This has been an awesome adventure and I'm so glad I got to meet and connect with the family. I've had so much fun and such a great time, can't wait to do something like this again. Thank you so muchfor hosting and treating us to a wonderful trip. You guys are so awesome and best of luck for your future adventures. Wouldn't have been the same without you! IRIS

Zuri 3 Exuma, Bahamas 7-day voyage We are just back from a voyage around Exuma with Andre and Magda on the Zuri 3, a 54’ Bali catamaran. First, our hosts: they could have not been more welcoming and friendly. Clearly, working very hard to make our trip everything we wanted and more. Our group was treated to a side of the Bahamas none of us knew existed. All of us had been to Nassau, but we didn’t know much of the island chain is uninhabited and spectacularly beautiful with white powder sand beaches and gin-clear water with nary a man-made structure in sight. Each was stunned by this remote isolated natural beauty. Andre presented us new post card anchorages daily. Further, interactions with local wildlife were part of their mission. Several wonderful snorkel excursions that included an aircraft wreckage once owned by notorious Pablo Escobar and the aptly named “Aquarium.” We also fed iguanas, wild pigs (that actually swim), and sharks (that we swam with). Yes, real live wild nurse sharks. Magda passionately teaching us the magic of these stunning creatures. A cruise down the local lazy river led us to a day at a beach all to ourselves. Where else are you going to get all of that? Speaking of Magda, she also worked diligently to put 5 pounds on each guest with delicious meals and stunning presentations – breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She was quick to point out that she’s not a chef. Maybe, but she is very good cook with an eye for detail. Favorites of our week were the poke bowl, lobster night, tuna steaks, and her nachos – for which everyone asked for a recipe. However, IMO, Magda is missing an opportunity by not introducing her food. It’s great! Celebrate it! By telling us all about the meal as we are seated, i.e. “tonight is grilled lobster basted in garlic butter accompanied by an Israeli couscous and roasted vegetable medley with thyme and rosemary.” Now, the Zuri 3 herself. She’s a big boat with lots of fantastic features. Most notable is the ability to raise the rear of the saloon making a complete open design. Further, I’d say she has the most seating options of any catamaran her size we’ve seen. She has comfortable well thought out, if a bit tight, cabins and heads. Sadly, due lack of favorable winds, we were not able to experience her under sail. Andre and Magda also do an amazing job of following your preference sheets and advising you on what and how to pack. Listen to them. We all over packed. All in all, issues were minor and we had a wonderful week with Andre, Magda, and the Zuri 3. Their passion alone is more than enough to earn our recommendation without reservation for charter in the Bahamas. You won’t be disappointed. Michele, Eric, Pam, George, Terri, and Ken

Magda, you absolutely spoiled me with the delicious and specialized meals for my very restrictive diet! You and Andre showed us some of the most beautiful beaches and waters we’ve ever seen in such fun ways— all the while with your sweet personalities waiting on us non-stop! We absolutely loved our time together and hope we get to come again soon. Hugs from Texas! Kathy

We made the most wonderful memories on Z3 and each day was full of new adventures for us and the kids. Thank you for the impeccable hospitality, attentiveness to every detail and need, and wonderful food and drink! We also so appreciate you being fabulous photographers to help document every aspect of our trip. We will remember this forever! Love from Curt, Michelle, Cooper & Jack

The trip of a lifetime! Sailing aboard Zuri 3 with Andre & Magda was a great adventure. We had so much fun exploring beautiful areas only accessible by sea. Andre & Magda met the needs of our 2 teenage boys (hard to do!) as well as ours (2 adults) perfectly. Thank you for the lovely meals, cocktails, and memories! The Swain Family

Will keep this short and simple as taxi is waiting – Simply a fantastic trip – best ever. Loved your spirit and kindness! You two are the BEST! Bruce (“No Tequila!”)

This was the BEST holiday! Andre & Magda AND Zuri 3—thank you! Thank you! We will be back for sure! John & Leanne

This was my first time on a boat and you both made the experience amazing, fun, and super special! You made me feel comfortable, the food was amazing, everything we got to do and see… I’m missing my 5:30 morning friend today! Sue (Pajamagirl)

We had a lovely time on Zuri 3 with Magda & Andre! Our family of four was well-fed and entertained. It was a trip of a lifetime and we are grateful to this amazing crew. Fishing, snorkeling, dance parties, delicious food & plenty of beverages! Thank you (danke!) for hosting us and being a part of our memories of a lifetime!” Laura, Scott & the boys

Thank you both for the most wonderful trip. We all had such an amazing time and can't imagine having a better crew to do it with! Thank you Andre for getting us to see the most we could — and safely! Magda, thank you for the wonderful food + conversations! Laura, Rebecca, Susan, Matt

Our crew was spectacular!! The meals were delicious and plentiful!! They knew just where to go and were extremely friendly an fun to be around. We had such a ball with them — singing, dancing, joking, playing card games at night, as well as visiting the islands. They make you feel like they're your friends, and not just a captain and chef. I can't say enough good things about Andre and Magda!! We would love to have them as our crew again in a future charter! Bill C.Charter Guest

This was our first time visiting the British Virgin Islands... We had absolutely the best time island hopping while laughing and exploring Norman Island, Virgin Gorda, Anagada, Scrub Island, St. John, and finally St. Thomas. Our captain, Andre and his wife, Magda showed us the best time ever. They became part of our family. ALANE P.Charter Guests

The warmth and professionalism of our crew, combined with the undeniable beauty of the islands, have left us with lasting memories. We are eager to return for another voyage with Captain Andre and Chef Magda and strongly recommend them for your next adventure. Rad S.Charter Guests

Andre went out of his way each and every day to make sure we understood our options for the day. His sole focus was that we felt safe, comfortable and relaxed. If we inquired about anything additional he would take all the time to explain and we did ask a million questions. He was fun and set the mood each and every day for what a vacation should be. Brandon really wanted to spear fish and he even hooked us up with his son and made it happen. Magda was nothing short of excellence. She also made sure each day that we were having fun, that we felt like home and that we had everything we needed. Her cooking was amazing, I probably gained ten pounds from how delicious. Each dish was classic but with a touch of her creativity. Hummus and warm pitas but with anchovies on top, hard boiled eggs but with her delicious aoili, lobster grilled to perfection not with drawn butter but her special tartar sauce to name a few. She was such a delight to talk to and told us story after story. She scheduled some private romantic time for us but also engaged and encouraged us to party. She was the perfect balance of personal and professional. Keeping up a yacht is such hard work. It was spotless when we arrived with Magda's homey touches in all the right places. We were made clear how to work the blue tooth, the AC and any safety features to aid in our comfort level. I loved the deck out front rather than a net and the leather bean bags that were supplied.

Magda & Andre, Thank you both for THE most wonderful trip! We all had such an amazing time and can't imagine having a better crew to do it with! Thank you Andre for getting us to see the most we could - and safely! Magda, thank you for the wonderful food and conversations. We wish you the best for the remainder of the season and if we don't see you again down here in the Bahamas, we hope to see you up in Calgary!

Andre and Magda were incredibly gracious and served up fabulous meals, and we had a lot of laughs together. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment! Since we were not familiar with the Bahamas, we didn’t initially appreciate the travel time from Nassau to the Exumas, but in retrospect, we might have explored using airports in the Exumas for a shorter charter. That said, it was a fantastic trip from start to finish!
