Captain: Dwayne Daniel
Dwayne was born and raised in the volcanic windward islands of St. Vincent & the Grenadines and from a young age, the sea has always been an enormous interest for him. Fishing, snorkeling, and water sports are just a few of the many exciting activities that drew him to the sea.
He started as a voluntary maintenance dockhand at a local ASA school in St. Vincent, and then humbly pursued his yachting career step by step. He gained most of his experience through deliveries of various yachts throughout the Caribbean, with a few transatlantic crossings to the Mediterranean. That led to cruising in some of the most exclusive places in the Mediterranean, including the south of France, Spain, Italy, Sardinia, Corsica and the Adriatic waters of Montenegro and Croatia.
Dwayne's passion for the sea, sailing and yachts goes very deep and is a large part of who he his. He enjoys sharing this passion with charter guests and those with similar interests. Fishing is one of his most exciting hobbies onboard. Early morning sunrise and sunset trawling have a therapeutic effect on his soul! There is nothing better than enjoying a fresh catch.
When not sailing, he enjoys the outdoors as much as possible indulging in breathtaking hikes, bird watching, cycling and farming. Farming has always been the backbone of his family, so the planting and harvesting of fresh fruits and food crops can also be considered another huge part of his life.
Olga grew in Odessa, a beautiful Ukrainian city near the Black Sea. From the beginning, it was Olga's dream to travel the world. She loves the opportunity to work with people and started as a crew agent, but the sea, traveling and boat life remained her passion.
This dream became a reality when she landed her first job onboard a motor yacht as a Stewardess, cruising the Mediterranean and Caribbean sea. Olga's passion for cooking and traveling became a wonderful mix of dreams and reality.
She enjoys exploring her surroundings, experiencing different meals and learning new cultures. This allows her to add meals to her menu that are inspired by her creativity both in presentation and flavor.
The slogan of her life: to be happy everyday, meeting wonderful people, doing what you really love and smile!

I would (and already have) highly recommend the crew, boat and our broker. You guys simplified the planning and coordination and provided all the crazy Covid needs to us as everything was changing. Thank you so much for helping to make this delayed 50th celebration a huge 55th success!

Was the yacht comfortable and clean?
I will never be able to say enough good things about our experience. Ever.
Was the yacht well ventilated?
The yacht was more than comfortable temperature wise, and airflow.
Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
The crew is what took this trip from wonderful to epic. I cried when I left. Literally. Olga & Dwayne took such good care of us and gave us the trip of a lifetime. I will never forget them, or the way they welcomed our family.
Was the food good and well presented?
I am a Chef and I documented everything Olga made. It was stunning. I was not only blown away by her presentation but also by the quality of her dishes. 12/10.
8. Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
Just 10/10. I couldn't have dreamed of a better experience. I am afraid to go on another because this was just SO magical. Everything came together and we were given the trip of a lifetime and we will be forever grateful.

I feel in love with this land, this boat, you two, and the people. I've learned a lot about other places and people. We all bleed red blood, we all feel, we all burn... you all are great hosts, and yes, friends. Wishes of a great season to both of you. Olga, you fed us like Kings and Queens!
Warm hugs,
Nana
Thank you for giving me an amazing birthday. It was so fun! Dwayne had some very awesome dance moves and Olga spolied everyone with delicious food!
-Liza
We all agreed that every time we hear the song Heat Waves we will think of Dwayne's dance moves. Thank you both for putting up with our music all week, especially when we blast it at 8am. Also, we will miss giving Olga a round of applause every time she brings our food. We loved trying yogurt cakes for the first time!! Also, thank you Olga for teaching me how to speak Russian even though I was very bad at it.
This has been my favorite spring break of my whole life. I do not want to leave. We will miss this trip so much!! We love you all!

Thank you for a beautiful boating adventure in the BVI. We had a wonderful time on our first time yachting around the islands. Dwayne took excellent and expert care as Captain. Olga produced meals beyond all expectation as chef. Thank you!
Thank you for a wonderful week of tip-toeing around the islands! Olga's meals and presentation kept us wow-ed - Indian, Russian, Brazilian cuisine, our very own comfort foods! Dwayne took us on all over the BVI and it was just excellent!
