Charter owners/crew

Neal and Karrie Bongard are your hosts and owner operators of this luxury catamaran. They left their corporate jobs in the United States to fulfill their dreams of sailing. After years in management they thought it might be more fun entertaining people than managing them and decided that chartering their boat would be just the way to do it.

They relocated to the beautiful Grenadines to run their charter business and quit the hectic pace of life that was theirs before.

They are both American Sailing Association (ASA) certified captains. Neal’s mechanical background and skills ensure a well maintained vessel. Karrie’s love of cooking guarantees meals to be both delicious and beautifully presented.

They have the desire to show people what they live every day – to let others know and see how stunning the Grenadine Islands are. They will show you their secret spots and know you will love and appreciate the sights and people as much as they do.

With extensive knowledge of St Vincent and the Grenadines - one of the finest sailing grounds in the world - their aim is to give you one of the best holiday experiences you have ever had.

“48 Marbles” – Neal and Karrie’s first catamaran was destroyed in Grenada in Hurricane Ivan in September 2004. Not being deterred they found a matching sister yacht to 48 Marbles and christened her “Lost Our Marbles” and were back sailing and chartering by November 2004.
