About I LOVE THIS BOAT
Best for: keen anglers and fishing-led groups, with families a close second.
I Love This Boat is a 44-metre Christensen from 2002, cruising the Bahamas and best known for putting guests on the fish. First officer Matt runs the deck and the rods, setting out to land at least one wahoo every charter on the Exumas grounds he favours. Plenty of yachts carry tackle. This is one of the few where the crew genuinely want you reeling in your own dinner, then cook the catch that night.
She suits a group that wants the water to be the holiday, not the backdrop. Ten guests across five cabins with a crew of seven, so the ratio runs in your favour all week. Captain Chad has 21 years of charter behind him and hosts like it, a skipper who swaps travel tales over sunset cocktails and brings the same families back year after year. The full-beam master runs to roughly 500 square feet, a proper retreat after a day chasing fish.

Broker feedback:
Captain Chad, a special thank you to you and your crew for an outstanding charter with a raving review from the charterer:
She loves the vessel and loved the crew more. She said the Captain was professional and delightful, that he put a lot of effort and thought into each day and that the crew gave their heart and soul and Becca was the sweetest. She says they were fed like kings, they loved the food. She said the birthday cake and homemade cinnamon rolls were to die for. Water toys were all a blast. The slide was a 'hoot'. They had great fun with fishing and she would be delighted to consider booking again based on this charter.
Lee Lubbe Always a pleasure for me to work with WWB, thank you! If you get a booking on ILTB in Exuma's over July 4, reach out to me, she might consider booking again if the vessel is already positioned over there.
