I'm not sure what constitutes "Premier" but this boat definitely had a few miles under the keel. It was not a 44i but a 44 and although in decent shape showed it's age a bit. The hull below the water line, keel, rudder, prop, etc were well coated with algae and growth but basically everything worked fine except the fridge pump out and a few drawers that required some convincing to close. Knot meter was unreliable but we had the plotter which gave us speed over the ground so was OK. The jib furler needed some attention as the nylon bushings around the main bolt below the drum were just about worn through and loose. We checked them and the bolt daily to make sure we weren't going to have a serious problem with the furler. No serious issues with the vessel and the Sunsail staff were great.

BAREBOAT CHARTER REVIEW
Name: Mr. Sam Santistevan
Yacht: Leopard 464 Premier with Sunsail - Road Town, Tortola
Charter Dates: 11/18/11 - 11/26/11
Broker: Melody Delgado
Area Cruised: Virgin Islands
We hope your charter lived up to your expectations and we are eager to have your evaluation and impressions of your yachting vacation. Please answer the following questions and add any comments you may have.
1. Were the staff at Sunsail friendly and accommodating?
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I felt that the boat breifing should have been more in depth. Also I thought that the boat should have had operating manuels on all systems.
2. Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
The yacht was very clean. The anchor light was inop and one of the lazy jack lines was not attached properly causing the sail to catch.
3. Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
The only problem we encountered was trying to operate the cook top at the same time as the oven, seemed to be not enough gas flow.
4. Was the boat well ventilated?
perfect
5. Did the staff at Sunsail do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and it's equipment?
Needs improvement, more time should have been spent on equipment operation.
6. Did you like the area you cruised?
Fantastic, each stop was better than the one before.
7. Could we at Virgin Island Sailing, Ltd. have helped you further in any way?
I thought everything you did was great. Seeing the operations of both Sunsail and Moorings I would most likely choose Moorings the next time.
8. May we post this review on our website?
Yes
9. Additional comments on your charter?
Over all, this was a fantastic vacation. Everone enjoyed the yacht and the destination. The people were all friendly and made us feel welcome. The food was out of this world. Our crew started out as eight friends and now we are family. It does not get any better than that!
