The former captain under the former owner is a good friend of mine. I have alot of time on board the vessel. The current owner also owns the water island ferry as well as a couple of other commercial boats. I know that he has done a lot of work on the boat since purchasing it. I heard through the coconut telegraph that he was putting it back into the crewed charter business with a captain and a chef. I don't know anything about the new crew. It is a fun boat for a big group if you want a crewed charter. But like all crewed charters the crew will make or break the cruise not the boat.

Thank you for the info. Nice to know it has been hauled out and has been taken care of. You are right about the crew making the or breaking your trip. If you hear anything else through the coconut telegraph I look forward to getting the full scoop. A

Hi
My wife and I are very good friends with Mark and Allison who are currently running Freedom. They are such wonderful people and we both HIGHLY recommend them.

Thanks! That's great! Our group is looking forward to a fun, relaxing and sun soaked trip. Very interested in the Ti Chi, not sure how my balance will fare on the water. He he. adlnp

How many people will the boat accommodate?

Ten. She has four queen births that all share two heads and a stateroom that has a private head. Looks like it has plenty of room. ADLNP

Mark and Alison have done a very sucessful charter for my clients and are truly great people and first rate hosts. I was aboard Freedom in November and she looked great! Book the trip and you'll have a grand time.

Thank you all I have booked and can't wait to go!
