SOME COMMENTS FROM SURFERS WHO HAVE BEEN ON DREAMWEAVER Al, Man what can i say... We were on the trip on the 20th march till the 27th... it was awesome. Your crew are outstanding and everybody was so well looked after, we could not of asked for more, we never went hungry or thirsty, your boys looked after us to more than our expectations... The trip itself and the knowledge that your captain possesses is outstanding.. he is worth all of his 45 kg in gold although we all still dont believe he is 34 years old. You could pay him a 15 year old rate over here and never be asked.. The boat was great and the times we had were priceless and will be remembered till the next time we board. I have been granted permission by the Mrs. to go again in 2010 with another group of friends, do you guys do a possible 4 day voyage? Kids and wives may not be to happy about the longer version., but hey.. whatever suits... thank you so much , and please thank the boys again for such an awesome time... Benny gross ..................................................................... .......... Hi Alan, yeah the trip was awesome! all the boys were stoked with everything! the food and crew were way above what we expected and we scored some pretty fun waves. we heard stories from other guys out in the water of crews who were lazy and everybody ending up with food poisoning so we are stoked we chose to go the week with Dreamweaver. P.S. the captain knew everything from recommending when and where to wear booties, when the swell would come, tides, everything he knew to an absolute T. very impressed! Thanks again, Troy. ..................................................................... .......... Alan, just got home - was on the last trip out that got good size swell, though really windy. Fantastic trip - good boat, excellent crew, great food (especially on the last night when the cook was allowed to cook more "indo" food - coupla cabin fever boys left the boat early). When you were speaking to Duncan on the phone on our last day you said to email you so we could get a Dreamweaver t-shirt. I'm an Aust L in t-shirt - probably similar build to you. ..................................................................... .......... Gday Alan, Im one very happy customer that just got back from the trip 26/7-2/8. Just wanted to say how epic it was and how fantastic all the crew were. We had a very diverse bunch of guys and they did well to keep everyone happy. Youre lucky to have such a good bunch of guys running your boat. Food was really good too and there was plenty of it. The cold Bintangs went down like a treat. Ive got some pretty good photos, so let me know if you want me to email some. One of the guys mentioned that you were getting some new tshirts made up. If possible, Tom Marin and I would both like one. To save the hassle you can send them both to me and Ill give Tom his. Here is my address Anthony Burke ..................................................................... .......... thanks so much alan. and believe me, all my friends and I are saving our money to get back there as soon as we can! Cheers Seth ..................................................................... .......... Dear Alan, I was on the boat trip that commenced on the 19/07/08 with the group comprising Alex Garriock and Tom Duracoski. We would just like to extend our praise to the crew who ensured that our trip was as comfortable and memorable as possible. All members played their role with much professionalism and should be commended for their efforts. We look forward to doing the same next year, Regards, Paul, Alex & Tom ..................................................................... .......... Gidday Alan, just completed my trip on the Dreamweaver with a couple of pals finishing on Sat. 26th July. Had a great time and some memorable waves. Your skipper and crew are to be commended, (they put up with Huey Dewy and Lewy along with the rest of us)And I cannot believe the places your crew sleep!! Food was great and plentiful, we just couldn't figure out how to turn the wind down. Ill have to arrange my next trip around May(early season) I need to pass my e-mail onto the rest of the surfers if that is possible, I took a lot of video and pictures so I promised to pass on. Regards, Alan Thomson P.S. Love to see a stay sail on the Dreamweaver.(My sailors eye talking) ..................................................................... .......... Hey allan, just wanted you to know that my mates and I had an awesome time on your boat,couldnt fault anything! The food was good and plentiful, and the crew were the friendliest bunch of lads weve met and they looked after us well. But most importantly the waves were awesome, especially desert point. Ill definitely be coming back on Dreamweaver again in the near future and would recommend it to anyone who wants to do the lombok sumbawa thing. Thanks again mate,till next time. ash. ..................................................................... .......... Hi Alan, I just wanted to drop you a line to say a very big thank you for helping make this recent trip such an easy experience - transfers / accommodation in Lembongan etc were all great. The boat was fantastic, crew just exceptional both in knowledge and helpfulness, and all up a really top trip. I get the stitches out of my head tomorrow and only missed the last days surfing due to my little fins in the face plant trick... so another scar for the collection, oh well. We are getting all the photos together and will send you some then... Will certainly talk the Dreamweaver up amongst the crew here! Warm regards, Brent ..................................................................... .......... G'day Alan Just a short note to thank you and the Dreamweaver crew again for a fabulous trip. We had an awesome time and the waves were epic, especially Sumbawa. Terima kasih banyak dan sampai jumpa lagi. Paul ( 29 july - 5 aug trip 2009) ..................................................................... .......... Cheers for organising a sick mission mate! Everyone super stoked on it aye, boys had a sick time! Last nite we were moored on the boat at Ekas, they heard us having a good time from 600m out to sea! Boys getting rowdy of course was too much fun, Tofik (the skipper) had taken a group of our mates the year before so he knew where we were coming from, haha. Yeah it was a great trip man, had some really good waves at most of the breaks aye, anything from 2ft through to about 5ft at Outside Ekas. The boat trip was super fun, had good waves pretty much everyday but no real juice unfortunately, but hey, cant complain about the waves can ya! Mawi got perfect and fun too, we surfed there for like 3 days. Simon - NZ May 09 ..................................................................... .......... Hi Al, Thank you for all your assistance in organizing my surf trip. My trip left on 25/04/2010 and it was better than the website. Great waves every day, decent swell, lots of variety in locations, great food, awesome company, plenty of laughs and a fantastic crew who went out of there way to ensure a safe and fun trip. I travelled alone on this trip and any concerns I may have had prior to boarding soon disappeared as I met an awesome bunch of fellow surfers who became mates. The Skipper Yanto was incredible, very professional and his surf knowledge and experience of the area was amazing, he made me feel very confident when discussing conditions and surf forecasts. If the skipper said there would be waves in an area or bay on a certain tide, it never failed. I'm so glad I travelled with Dreamweaver and am already thinking about my next trip. A truly great experience Kind regards, Dave Edwards Gold Coast ..................................................................... .......... Alan, Traveled from May 13-20 2010. Your crew are nothing short of amazing. I never had the chance to lift a finger, whether it be food, surfing, fishing and drinking. It was door to door gold service. Your captains knowledge of waves, timing and tides was perfect. His dedication to travel at night to ensure we maximised our surfing time was truly appreciated. Windu's cooking was awesome. The stuff he produces out of such a small kitchen from Spag bowl, Nasi Goreng , fried chicken, fish curry, banana pan cakes, to the breakfast omelette's is nothing short of amazing. All time trip. Vincent Cotte Director - Product Marketing Asia Pacific/Japan TIBCO Software Inc. ..................................................................... .......... Hi Alan. Just a note to say thanks for an epic trip on the Dreamweaver. Due to the unseasonal wind directions we had during our trip, it opened up many more options for us to surf, & the Capitan was dead set spot on with his suggestion as to what would be working best. Not only did we get epic waves, but the food & the service levels from your crew on the boat were outstanding. Also just to top off an epic trip, the boys were all stoked to get a free Dreamweaver T-shirt from you. Now Im working on geeing up the boys for another trip in 2012, so hopefully if I can get 8 or 9 of us to commit Ill be in touch then. Once again thanks for an epic week, were all supa stoked and surfed out. Talk soon. Regards, Shannon Fell Owner/Operator McDonald's Kincumber ..................................................................... ..........

Hi Alan, hope you're fine. I'd like to say that the boat trip we did on June 18 was awesome... I really had a great time there. The crew is outstanding, specially the cook, the captain and the guy who pilots the small boat, all very humble, friendly and kind, really nice people. Cheers. Denis |
