Crew Profile

Meet the crew onboard for the 2023/24 season!

Captain Juan: From an early age, my love for the sea was ignited under the guidance of my grandfather. This passion led me to obtain my skipper's license in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I have since embarked on numerous sailing adventures, including cruising with my family from Argentina to Uruguay, exploring several ports. I have also captained catamarans in the Caribbean and Latin America, including the breathtaking BVI and the stunning Angra dos Reis. My connection to the water extends beyond sailing; I have a deep-rooted passion for kitesurfing, which has allowed me to explore the world while pursuing my love for the sport. Furthermore, I am an avid diver and freediver, always seeking to immerse myself in the wonders beneath the waves.

In terms of my educational background, I hold a degree in industrial engineering and have successfully completed an MBA in Buenos Aires. These qualifications have equipped me with a strong foundation in management and leadership, which I believe are crucial for a successful captain. However, it is our shared passion for the sea and our desire for a unique experience that has driven both Rochi, my wife, and me to embark on this exciting path as the captain and crew of a catamaran in the BVI. We are both easy-going individuals who love to connect with people, ensuring that our clients have the most memorable and enjoyable time on board.

Chef Rosario: Sailing has been a part of my life since childhood. For 20 years, I spent every summer exploring the ports of Uruguay aboard a boat with my family. I know every shore of that country. My love for the sea led me to compete in various sailing classes, starting from Optimist and Cadet, and eventually enjoying kitesurfing alongside my husband, Juan. We love combining our travels with the exhilarating practice of this sport. In addition to sailing, my passion for cooking has always been a constant in my life. From a young age, I assisted my mother in the kitchen, and I have honed my culinary skills through courses and by exploring new recipes and flavors. I take great pleasure in surprising and delighting people with my gastronomic creations.

My academic background in architecture has provided me with a unique perspective on design and functionality, which also translates into my approach to cooking. I enjoy creating visually appealing dishes that simultaneously stimulate all the senses of those who partake in them. Living aboard a catamaran in the Caribbean has always been my dream. Having the opportunity to live that experience and share it with people from different nationalities, providing them with the best possible experience, would greatly enrich my life. I am thrilled at the prospect of creating unforgettable moments for travelers, exploring the beautiful British Virgin Islands, and offering them an exceptional culinary experience that complements their maritime adventure.

About us!

We crossed paths in 2016, and little did we know that our shared love for sailing would become one of the foundations of our relationship. As we started dating, we embarked on our first cruises, and it didn't take long before we began planning our vacations around our mutual love for sailing. After marrying our honeymoon in the Bahamas included our kitesurfing gear, and we even enjoyed memorable vacations on a catamaran in Brazil. It's safe to say that water has been an integral part of our journey together. Over time, his connection to the water expanded beyond sailing, as he delved into activities like snorkeling, freediving, and scuba diving. But it was the discovery of kitesurfing that ignited a new passion, leading him to explore kitesurfing hotspots around the world. Together, we have traveled to Brazil, the BVI, Miami, Venezuela, and the Bahamas, chasing the thrill of kitesurfing and reveling in the freedom it brings the water!
