I would have this man back on my boat without hesitation. I asked him to take charge and he did that as a true leader he is. He is loved by everyone on board. I didn't have to do much work with home around. Any host will be impressed by this man

I think most host will be happy with her work ethic and her attitude.
I wish her all the best for her future
A very proper woman but still accepted nearly all of my jokes.

This person is extremely quiet and it was a surprise to see that he has many skills including cooking.
He was great and made up a team of three when we were doing maintenance on my boat and nearly every bit of his work was spot on.
I recommend this person to other hosts

I stayed with Ian for about 8 days. It was great fun to help him. He is funny and you can talk to him about anything. I had almost no difficulty helping with the yacht work. Because the work done was what I knew and enjoyed doing. Life on the island is very nice. Quiet and calm. I hope we meet again one day. It is an honor to work with him🌱🥰

Meltem is a nice young woman, seeking to develop her limited maintenance skills and she was able to do all I asked but lacked the experience and needed supervision. She was out there in the sun doing her share which was good.

He is a very quite man. Keeps to himself but does get involved in everyday conversations. The language barrier was apparent but over time we got used to each others ascents and got our massage across.
I found he did the adequate amount of work well. He is fussy with maintenance work did.

Sad to see her go!
Eli was fun to be around.
Eli took the initiative on nearly all things on the boat she undertook.
Eli cleaned her cabin from top to bottom when she arrived and again when she left. Eli even washed all the bedding.
I did not need to ask her to be involved. Eli was often the instigator of tasks
