Crew Information
First Mate/Chef
Captain
Captain: Xander
---CAPTAIN XANDER---
Your skipper, Captain Xander, grew up near St. Louis before moving to Arizona to study finance at Arizona State. He spent his initial years out of college behind a desk working for a large wealth management firm. During a trip to Croatia, he fell in love with sailing and quickly realized that office life wasn’t going to be in his future forever.
In 2016 Xander moved to Chicago, purchased an old sailboat, and spent summer evenings and weekends on the water, sailing around Lake Michigan. After a couple of seasons, he decided that the short Chicago summers and splitting time between the office and the lake weren’t enough so he left the finance world to pursue a career in sailing.
Xander has spent most of his time sailing in the Caribbean, Adriatic, and Great Lakes. His favorite part of the day is when the engines are off and you’re truly sailing. Xander is always happy to show guests the ropes and teach a thing or two about sailing. His goal on every charter is to deliver an unforgettable experience and leave guests with a passion for sailing.
---FIRST MATE TAYLOR---
Your chef/first mate, Taylor, was born in Sydney, Australia but grew up in Los Angeles, California. While pursuing a degree in Art History at TCU, she spent a semester abroad in Florence, Italy studying Italian Gastronomy and Culture. It was during this time that Taylor realized her passion for food which allowed her to refine her culinary skills.
After graduating Taylor began working for a family in the US, preparing meals and helping care for their child. She was fortunate to accompany the family on extended trips around Europe and Africa, exposing her to more unique cuisines and cooking methods.
Having visited 50+ countries, Taylor loves drawing on her experiences traveling to create inventive dishes in a wide array of culinary styles focusing on simple, local ingredients. In 2018 Taylor decided to go from kitchen to galley and started working as a chef on boats. She has worked on sailboats in the Adriatic and Caribbean. Her goal on every charter is to ensure some of your favorite memories are the beautiful sunsets and the amazing food accompanying them.
Xander and Taylor first met while working on charters in Croatia before moving to the Caribbean. Both are extremely passionate about yachting and love delivering the best possible charter for all guests. With 3+ seasons and over 60 Caribbean charters together, Xander and Taylor will ensure your itinerary fits perfectly for your ideal vacation. The Virgin Islands have so much to offer and they can’t wait to show you some of their favorite spots!
**Captain Xander and Chef Taylor are both fully vaccinated**
Xander and Taylor look forward to welcoming you aboard KaYachtic!

Reviews
What an epic trip! Absolutely fabulous from the food to the adventures, we loved it all. You both destroyed trivia nightly and kept us all laughing. You are true professionals and we will forever treasure the memories you helped us to make as a family. Cheers and happy new years!
Thank you both for the most amazing week! Our best family vacation to date. The food was five stars - breakfast lunch and dinner. Especially loved happy hours :) can’t wait to come back for another week of “snorkel, swim, chill!”
She made us feel at home. The food was amazing. Taste, quantity, quality was all taken well care of. She always had a smile on her face which made it even more special. Thank you Taylor!
Xander, your sailing itinerary brought us to so many exquisite island locations. We loved anchoring off Little Jost Van Dyke tucked into a little bay where we faced a tiny island with two cute palms standing side by side. Our starry night with sparkling boat lights while buoyed in North Sound, Virgin Gorda was magical! We loved sailing and returning to Anegada bringing back memories from 35 years ago. Among other special spots and sails you topped it off with a snorkeling destination at the Indians where we found ourselves surrounded by tropical fish of all hues and sizes.
Tay, your culinary talent and offerings were amazing! The presentation is a work of art! We could taste the love in each bite and meal. You outdid yourself with every breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Thank you for all the dietary accommodations. The jerk chicken and jollof rice followed by a gluten free chocolate birthday cake for Gary and me topped off the delectable culinary experience! Your kindness, care, joy, and flexibility made our sailing adventure on Kayachtic’s maiden voyage a dream come true!
Thank you so very much! Xoxo
Reina and Terry
Taylor, you thrilled me with delicious vegetarian meals that exceeded anything I would do for myself.
Xander, you’re so kind to answer all my questions about the yacht and to go in the water to take pictures of the group. The two of you work effortlessly together and it's nice to see. Lastly, KaYachtic is a well-outfitted yacht and there was nothing we said “oh I wish it had this or that”. It was perfect.
Taylor your amazing meals were above 5 stars, everyone onboard agrees that your cooking was everyones favorite part of the trip! Xander, you are an incredible captain. I have never seen my family have so much fun. Both of you guys are amazing and the best yachting experience we have ever had. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts y’all are now family!
Love the Marlowe and Mitchells
