Before he turned sailing into a full-time profession he worked behind the camera in the film industry, which is where the attention to detail and the calm under pressure come from.

“I can't say enough about Caitlin's attitude and service! We had our 7 year old grandson and she took him under her wing and taught him to snorkel and introduced new foods that he would otherwise not have ever tried! She totally understood our needs as a multigenerational family and planned our meals accordingly. The food was delicious! We were not looking for gourmet meals but it felt over the top special with her hand made pasta dishes and variety of meals. She even had the kids help her make pasta. Jeff was very professional and we always felt we were being cared for and in safe hands. And he is an incredible grillmaster! 
The yacht was extremely comfortable and well organized.&nbs…”
