CHILLAXIN Yacht Charter

Dylan Keffer | Captain (Rotational)
American
Hailing from Ft. Lauderdale, I’ve been immersed in the yachting lifestyle from a young age, thanks to my father’s career as a captain. My early exposure to the marine world sparked a lifelong passion for the water, ultimately steering me away from my mechanical engineering studies and into a full-time career at sea. I took on my first captain’s role in 2021 aboard a 66' Astondoa and am currently awaiting USCG approval for my 500-ton license. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and love the challenge of delivering exceptional experiences for charter guests from all walks of life.
I’m an avid fisherman and diver—if I’m not on charter, you’ll likely find me offshore on the weekends, chasing the next big catch or exploring beneath the surface. One of my most unforgettable memories is catching double-header sailfish with my four best friends on Christmas morning. My cruising experience spans the turquoise waters of the Bahamas (excluding only Andros), the vibrant shores of Turks and Caicos, and the historic charm of New England, including Boston, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, and Newport. Whether on deck or in the water, I bring passion, professionalism, and a genuine love for the sea to every trip.

Scott Rhomberg | Captain (Rotational)
American
Captain Scott grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and found his love for the water while working as a marine mechanic at the Lake of the Ozarks. Knowing he wanted to explore larger waters, Scott transitioned into the yachting industry and took his first helm position on an 82’ Princess in 2014.
Scott enjoys being part of an industry where he gets to travel and meet different people. He enjoys adapting to each family and group he has on board, allowing his strong versatility and easy to adapt mindset lead him to accomplish successful charters time and time again.
Captain Scott has cruised the Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico and Caribbean. He loves being able to experience places many people only see in magazines. By far his favorite experience in the industry has been working with his best friend who since, has become his wife.
Scott enjoys diving, fishing (though he’s better known for repairing things than catching fish!), and boating. He spends most of his free time on the water with his family.

Sean Lenderman |Mate
American
Born in Hockessin, Delaware, Sean Lenderman brings a strong background in watersports and safety to his role as Mate. Before joining the yachting industry, he worked as a dockhand at Dewey Beach Watersports and served as a lifeguard, building his comfort and confidence on the water. His hands-on experience and natural affinity for the ocean led him into yachting, where he has quickly developed a well-rounded and reliable skill set. Sean has worked aboard several notable vessels, including North Star (37m), Wild Kingdom (34m), Zen (19m), Long Aweighted (36m), and Night Howl (50m). He thrives in the fast-paced, team-oriented environment of charter yachts and especially enjoys the opportunity to travel to stunning destinations while creating memorable guest experiences. A highlight of his yachting career was a voyage from Fort Lauderdale to Halifax, Nova Scotia—an adventure that deepened his love for exploration. When not on duty, Sean enjoys snorkeling and paddle boarding. His favorite life experience so far has been traveling to Switzerland, and he’s always looking forward to the next destination. Sean speaks English and brings with him a positive attitude, a secret knack for solving problems under pressure, and a true passion for life at sea.
