AESON

The trips:
Aeson travels throughout a large portion of the Caribbean, from the Virgin Islands in the north to Bonaire in the south, with St. Maarten, Martinique, St. Vincent and Grenada as boarding points in between.  There are several itineraries available depending where you board the yacht.  Contact us for advice and assistance in transportation to any of these points.

Piet and Jelka will make your trip extremely enjoyable, whichever area you choose.  Once you board Aeson, you can discuss the itinerary with them and decide how you would like to spend your time.  There are so many beautiful islands to discover in the Caribbean, it’s just a matter of making choices.  In addition to sailing, there are many activities to enjoy ashore – hiking, exploring historic sites and towns, diving, snorkeling.  If you have special interests, mention this when booking Aeson and your hosts will recommend the best itinerary for you.  They specialize in tailor-made trips.

Accommodation:
The forward cabin has 3 single berths. The sofa in the salon can be transformed to a convenient double.  Aft is the master stateroom with a queen size double berth. This aft stateroom is available for guests at special request.  It is especially suitable for honeymoon couples. The well equipped galley has an oven, grill and fridge. This is where chef Jelka prepares her delicious dishes. Inside, as well as outside, are showers with hot and cold water. The spacious cockpit has a bimini to provide shade, at anchor and under sail.

The crew:
Piet Postma, the skipper/owner of the Aeson, and his Slovenian partner Jelka are experienced sailors and charterers. Via the North Sea and the Canary Islands they crossed the Atlantic to the Caribbean, their home now since 1994.
Jelka is the chef onboard.  Her style of cooking combines Slovenian, Mediterranean and Caribbean cuisine. She cooks 5 days a week. The other 2 days guests have the opportunity to experience the local cuisine, wherever Aeson may be.

With their extensive knowledge of the Caribbean, Piet and Jelka know the nicest bays, the best beaches and the clearest water with greatest snorkel spots.
