Testimonials

Don't take our word for it...

Loved this experience….

Thank you for a very special moment! We were so happy to spend as much time as possible near our boat. Loved this experience! You were an excellent skipper! Thanks a lot!

Thank you for everything Anton!

We spent a day sailing with Anton on Katabatic and were very happy! It was a very special occasion, as we wanted to watch the start of the Ocean Globe Race 2023 from the water. Communication with Anton was very easy, the Marina easy to reach and the boat in perfect condition. Thank you for everything Anton!

A Huge Thank You….

Just wanted to say a huge thanks to you and Meme for yesterday. We all really enjoyed ourselves, especially the swiming off the back of the yacht.

Enormous thank you

An enormous thank you from all of us for a fabulous fun day sailing on your beautiful boat

Thanks for a very enjoyable weekend

Thanks for a very enjoyable weekend on Antara.....

I am writing to thank you, the skipper….

I am writing to thank you, the skipper for the wonderful two days we spent on Katabatic. She is truly a beautiful boat that is fully equipped with all the latest state of the art navigational aids with safety showing through as uppermost. The skipper was extremely caring in looking after all on board. The whole experience gave us all great joy from beginning to end. Even the sunset as we entered Portsmouth Harbour was breathtaking. We all express our deep gratitude for a wonderful cruise and cannot wait to be back on board again as soon as we can arrange it. Kindest regards Ian and crew

She’s a lovely yacht and Anton was a superb skipper….

Our family had a brilliant time celebrating a special birthday on Katabatic. She's a lovely yacht and Anton was a superb skipper, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient, mixing easily with our motley crew. All the arrangements beforehand went smoothly and we all enjoyed the sailing, whether anchored in the sunshine for lunch off Hurst Castle, flying past the Needles, or berthed for the night in Yarmouth or Cowes, where we even managed to Skype a far away member of the family. We will keep happy memories of this fantastic weekend and many thanks are due to Anton who contributed enormously to our enjoyment. We would enthusiastically recommend Katabatic and her skipper to anyone who is thinking of chartering.....

Helene and John

Thank you again…

It was amazing and the pics are stunning. Gary was a star and my Dad was so so happy! Thank you again.

Chartered many boats before and this was the best…

Thank you for arranging a great weeks sailing together with all the logistics of getting us to and from the boat. We have chartered many boats before and this was the best: all the equipment worked, the fridge worked, the galley was well supplied with proper crockery, cutlery, & sharp knives and the navigation area likewise. I hope that you found the boat in the same condition that you handed her over to us.

A Really Great Day

Thank you Anton and Neil for a fabulous day watching the racing at Cowes Week and sailing in the afternoon. Hospitality was perfect, food and drink in plentiful supply and nothing was too much trouble. I really enjoyed my time at the helm, Katabatic handles beautifully, even for a first time 'skipper'. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a days sailing on Katabatic. Thank you once again for a wonderful day

Katabatic - Cowes Week

Really enjoyed sailing Antara

Anton - we all really enjoyed sailing Antara and will certainly charter her again. Best regards

Thank you so much for a lovely day

Thank you so much for a lovely day yesterday. My friends and I had a wonderful time and not only learned new sailing terms but enjoyed the bliss of having lunch in Osbourne Bay. Thank you again.

Thank you again, very much appreciated.

Hi Anton, Thank you very much for a very enjoyable day, it was exactly what I had hoped for, even the rain didn't really make much difference. The family all loved it and it was a great experience for all of them. Naturally I would certainly use Salty Dog again for either business or leisure, thank you again, very much appreciated. Regards Mark

It was brilliant

Anton - Thanks for everything it was brilliant. We will book again soon.

Splendid weekend

Hi Anton,many thanks again for a splendid weekend on Katabatic.

We had a brilliant few days

Firstly thank you so much for the use of Antara last weekend. We had a brilliant few days and the RTIR was something special, are you happy to take a booking for next year?

Antara RTIR

We really had a good time

Many thanks for the charter over the weekend - we really had a good time. The boat is really well kept and perfect for what we were after.

She is a lovely yacht

We had a fantastic and memorable long weekend aboard Antara. She's a lovely yacht, impeccably maintained and well equipped, making for very pleasant sailing. Antara's marina is perfectly situated to explore the Solent and Anton's local knowledge really helped us get the most from our charter. We'll be taking her out again soon.

Thanks for a brilliant day

Thank you very much for letting us take Katabatic out for the day, she is a brilliantly maintained yacht and sails beautifully. Even in relatively light winds, we were able to hit over 10 knots , with a little help from the spring tide! From start to finish, it was all very easy and professional and we look forward to the next time!

Dan Barratt

Very impressed with both yacht and service

We chartered Antara back in August 2014 and had a superb time. Everything was well organised and Antara was very clean and well equipped and a great yacht to sail. Anton made sure we were fully briefed about the yacht and marina facilities. We had a fantastic weekend sailing from Haslar to Chichester and back. When we returned Anton was there to make sure the handover and our departure was as smooth as our arrival. Very impressed with boat yacht and service. Thanks Anton see you again soon.

Meet the Crew

MEET YOUR CREW:

CAPTAIN: Gordon Holden

Chef: Jenine De Kock

Meet Gordon Holden, your Captain on Salty Dog! He is 28 from Buffalo NY and has been around the water his whole life. He grew up on the shores of Lake Erie sailing/swimming/waterskiing with family and friends in addition to spending summers at Lake Muskoka in Ontario Canada doing much of the same.

His family owns a C&C 33ft sailboat on Lake Erie that he and his 3 brothers learned to sail from an early age. In addition to sailing, he was the captain of my high school swimming and diving team as well as the local rugby club. He has always had a passion for the water and has sailed in a variety of locations across the globe.

During summer breaks in college, he worked in high end hospitality establishments in East Hampton & Montauk NY and enjoyed providing unique experiences to guests. A few years after graduating college with a Business Administration & History Degree, he worked in Corporate for some time and decided to leave his desk behind and hit the water full time! Gordon went on to obtained his captain and sailing credentials, spent a season working flotilla charters in the Mediterranean, mainly Croatia and Greece, and has spent the last season captaining term charters in the Virgin Islands. ..read more

Jenine is a culinary trained chef from Cape Town, South Africa. After completing her Bachelor of Commerce Degree and subsequently working 4 years in corporate retail, she left Cape Town for a brief traveling sabbatical and never looked back to conventional” life again. She was an avid traveler in her 20’s and after spending 6 months in India she decided yet again to make a major change and seek work on superyachts. Although she initially joined superyachts to continue her nomadic lifestyle; a deep love for being on the water, and expressing herself creatively through food, is what kept her there. After 5 seasons on superyachts, Jenine transitioned to catamarans where she can have a more hands on experience with both guests and sailing alike. She is a passionate sailor, holding a yacht masters license and loves any activities to do with water, especially scuba diving. Jenine is very social, loves water sports and exploring new, undiscovered places.

Gordon and Jenine look forward to hosting you on Salty Dog and creating wonderful memories for you.

We could not have had a better week aboard the Salty Dog! We made memories that will last a lifetime. Gordon and Jenine made our family, spanning ages 6-64 feel extremely comfortable and pampered all week. The food was amazing, the service was amazing, the boat was amazing, the sights/excursions were amazing, and the company we shared was amazing. Gordon and Jenine quickly became extended family members which made saying goodbye more difficult. If you are on the fence about booking this trip, don´t be! You will not regret it!

Knocked It Out Of The Park

Thank you Gordon and Jenine for a perfect Virgin Islands getaway. Besides arranging for perfect weather so that we could experience 100 degree F increase in temperature upon arrival in STT, you knocked it out of the park with kind hospitality, conversations, spectacular meals and yummy cocktails. We were all craving a week of sun, aqua water, beautiful coral and fish, yum food, relaxation and new adventures. We got it all and can´t thank you enough.

Fantastic Hosts!

Gordon and Jenine are fantastic hosts. We were blessed with beautiful weather, the sun, kind service of our hosts. We are spoiled and it will be hard to find any restaurant to compare with the food (and food presentation) we were fed - this in every meal. Thank you

You Are the BEST!

Another truly amazing trip with an AMAZING crew. Gordon and Jenine - You are the BEST. Thanks for letting us celebrate Gordon´s birthday with you. Food was great. we´re going home to FAT CAMP :)) We will miss you. You´re part of the family.

So Impressive!

From the start to the finish this trip was truly AMAZING. Getting to see so many new and beautiful places. I can´t really pick which one was my favorite. The crew was so impressive. Just want to thank them for their willingness to help us with whatever we needed.

Good Care Of Us

What a fantastic experience - again!! The itinerary was so much fun this time as we got to go to The Baths! Thanks to the crew on Salty Dog for taking good care of us.

Loads Of Fun

I had a great time. This trip was loads of fun and great food. I enjoyed The Baths and the snorkeling. Thanks so much for everything. Great trip and great crew. Hope to come back again sometime.

The Crews Intergrity, Ease and Grace!

We truly had a wonderful time! Thanks to the care of Jenine and Gordon. We wait all year long to come and visit the islands and hope it´s as magical as we remember, and having a team like Gordon and Jenine is a gift!!! They helped us create new memories by offering great ideas and suggestions for little adventures. I loved the champagne on the beach and the snorkeling adventure of Great Dog with the water scooters. But most of all I could feel the genuine care they put into making the entire experience special for us - Thank you. Jenine, the flowers, the incredible meals, great conversations, your integrity shines through in all you do!! - Thank you And Captain Gordon, your confidence and skill managing the eacht, and care of us was wonderful and done with ease and grace - Thank you

Gordon and Jenine were Amazing!

We had a lovely 4 night trip up the Drake Channel from St. Thomas to Virgin Gorda. Captain Gordon and Chef Jenine were amazing!! We hit all our favorite snorkel spots along the way - Caneel Bay, Waterlemon Cay, The Indians, Peter, Great Dog and Eustacia, and we even got to play with the water toys. We loved the underwater scooter. Thank you Captain Gordon and Jenine for the suggestion!!!! The food was first rate! Jenine is an amazing chef and we felt like we ate like gourmands every day! Thank you sincerely for a great trip, and we hope to be back with you in the future.

Broker Review

Guest´s email to broker post charter. ´Would love to do a follow up call this next week! It will go without saying but honestly I do not think our trip could have been any better! Salty Dog was amazing and Gordon and Jenine truly went above and beyond and everything they did was perfect! They were freaking amazing!!! ´

Thanks For Being Amazing!

Trip of a Lifetime for sure. We were so blessed to have the opportunity to spend 7 nights aboard Salty Dog! Jenine and Gordon were great and by the end of the week we felt like we were all on vacation together. The meals were phenomenal and the hospitality was endless. We definitely will cross paths again and hope to be back on the Salty Dog real soon!! Thanks for being amazing!

Will Never Forget Our Trip.

As we near the end of our one week journey, it´s difficult to say what we´ve enjoyed most. I suppose for us we will miss the friends we´ve made first. Gordon and Jenine have done a fantastic job of welcoming us and providing outstanding service as captain and chef/first mate. Our food has been incredible and we´ve been spoiled by the quality, care and presentation for each meal. I could have never imagined a vacation like this was even an option. The islands and sea are beautiful and every day was different and offered a new adventure. We were able to relax or enjoy as much activity as we wanted. On our final night our farewell party was filled with laughter by people who loved and cared for each other. We will never forget our trip on Salty Dog :)

Salty Dog Was Amazing!

Wow!! From start to finish our trip on the Salty Dog was amazing. Our trip with guests spanning 3 generations had something for everyone - one favorite was seeing turtles in Maho Bay and everyone enjoyed snorkeling with the colorful fish. Waterlemon, Salt Pond and Lameshur were beautiful and secluded and the hikes had great views! A true highlight was meeting our Captain , Gordon, and chef, Jenine! We so appreciated their companionship and conversation as well as guidance, kindness and humour.

Fun, Wonderful Times

Gordon and Jenine made our very first boating/sailing experience beyond anything we could have ever imagined. So gracious, friendly, accommodating. So patient with our learning to snorkel and with our few physical limitations. Always suggesting alternatives so that we would enjoy the full experience of the week. Fabulous food, great conversation, lovely table settings and each meal was a particularly pleasant and delightful touch. Blessed to have shared all this with our daughter-in-law and grandchildren. memories for a lifetime. Fun wonderful times.
