Martine was on board with her little family, including her grandchildren of 3 and 8…
“At first we didn’t think to take the little ones but, finally, we did not regret bringing them, in fact on the contrary…”
“Frankly, there is no problem taking a cruise with children. Even our little granddaughter of 3 still has a memory of the trip, even if our photos help to keep it alive. Just imagine: she has seen Nemo in a sea-anemone! Our skipper, Turo, became “her” Turo -he was her protector and was very attentive to her.”
“As for our grandson, he was in charge of rewinding the line when we fished the tuna between Huahine and Raiatea and he has seen dolphins, sharks…what more can I say ?…”
As far as safety was concerned, we bought lifejackets although Tahiti Yacht Charter provide them as well and they wore them all the time without fuss. They were always watched over when we were sailing and when we were at anchor and they lived their lives normally. The result: no bumps or bruises and no one fell in the water, involuntarily. A child is not stupid…They know what theyr’e doing…..”
