Back in October, I posted this blog item about the 62-foot sailing yacht Conundrum, praising its owners for hiring better, more enthusiastic crew than the team I met when I wrote my First Impression review of the yacht. “It’s always nice to see a yacht owner correcting problems to improve the charters her boat offers,” I wrote.

The same sentiment now applies to the owner of the 110-foot motoryacht Le Reve, whose name means “The Dream” but that I wrote might be a charter nightmare because of crew problems I discovered last month when I got onboard for a First Impression review.

I’m thrilled to say that Le Reve’s owner, like Conundrum’s, has taken the step of replacing a less-than-stellar crew with one that has a good deal of charter industry experience. As I wrote in my review, the yacht itself is quite nice. I’m delighted to see that there is now a crew in place with the potential to be as great as the boat itself.

We don’t pull our punches here on CharterWave because we want you to be well-informed when researching different yachts, crew, and brokers. But we’re just tickled to be able to write good-news updates like these, when owners correct onboard problems to enhance your charter experience.

Kudos to the owner and new crew onboard Le Reve. They now seem to be setting a better standard for the charter industry as a whole.
