Captain Adrien, was a born yachtsman. He started crossing the seas as a boy on the family sailing boat until deciding after high school graduation to transform his passion and knowledge into a job. Fully qualified, as a Captain (he holds an Rya yachtmaster offshore) as well as a nautical marketing engineer degree, Adrien masters any aspects of the sailing world. Professional captain on the French Riviera and Captain in the bvi and usvi, Adrien holds the necessary skills to ensure the safety of his passengers and his crew in any weather and sea conditions.As any Captain should be, Adrien is as patient and serene as outgoing. His care for people makes him by far the most enjoyable and safe Captain one may think about. French art de vivre, righteousness of British nautical formation, extended knowledge of the Caribbean , Indian and Atlantic Ocean as well as the Mediterranean make Adrien an amazing Captain. Cruising with him on Deep Blue is much more than an experience : it´s an unforgettable pleasure.

Chef Christina is a Midwest Cincinnati native, and after moving to Manhattan and working 15 years in the fashion world she decided to go back to her favorite job of all time, restaurants... Growing up in a Greek household, food and cooking was always a huge part of her life. Christina comes from a long line of a family with culinary careers so there is no surprise she ended up being a Yacht Chef. She also loves being at Sea and has been boating her entire life. After working many years in NYC restaurants, she moved to LA to be a private chef, then took a chance on a job that would combine two of her favorite activities cooking and the sea and has been happily hosting and cooking aboard Deep Blue ever since. She is outgoing, happy, funny, and looks forward to helping make your trip one of the best of your life!

Deep Blue Guest Reviews

The food was outstanding and so much of it! Thank you to Christina´s Grandma´s recipes! This was an amazing trip, we can´t wait to do it again! Adrien, thank you for your company, humor and getting us safely to our destinations. Cheers! Glenn and Melody

Christina and Adrien,
Words cannot express, thank you doesn´t seem to say enough. This was a fabulous experience that will be difficult to top. Everything was perfect. Safe travels to you, and if you have any cancellations or need help doing anything but rope work - you have our number! Say hi to Grandma! Thank you for everything! Dene and Russ

Christina and Adrien,
Thank you for the once in a lifetime experience! You both added so much to the trip. Nigel is definitely lucky to have you both managing the yacht. The food was gourmet all the way. Christina is one of the friendliest, welcoming people I´ve ever met. Adrien managed our travels safely without a hitch and so smoothly it was transparent to all. Chrysto and Carl

C & A,
Thank you both for a fantastic week in the beautiful BVI. Deep Blue was everything we hoped for. The food was beyond great - tell your Grandma we loved her recipes. You guys were simply the best. You added so much to our experience. Thank you for letting ´Corky´ help. Say hi to my turtles for me. Candace and Corky

Best Spots on the Sea

Thank you Christina and Adrien! Your hospitality was delightful and we couldn´t get enough. Christina - it´ll suck going back to reality without your food. Adrien - thanks for keeping us safe on the sea and finding the best spots on the sea. We loved celebrating Easter in Virgin Gorda!
Greg, Allison, Cole, Renee and Rachel

Grateful

We had a wonderful time on your boat and are grateful to have our family experience such an intimate beautiful vacation. Our trip would not have been nearly as enjoyable without Christina’s amazing personality, caring acts, delicious cooking, and Adrien’s way of keeping us safe, being always available, and pleasant. They are truly an asset and we were grateful for both of them. We felt they were part of our family the entire trip and will miss them.

Thank you again.

Sincerely;
Kyle

The BVI is beautiful and we had the most amazing time with great friends! Adrien and Christina fit right in with our crew. The food and experience is one we will never forget. Everything was 5 Star!! We are forever spoiled and will always want to spend our vacations like this. Thank you for everything. - Curtis and Jamie

This was the most amazing trip ever! Not only was this place beautiful it was topped off by the best captain and 1st mate/chef. The only amazing meals were the ones prepared on the boat! This trip was the best all the way from planning everything for us to taking care of us from Day 1. - Marty, Alicia and Peg

This was a trip of a lifetime! Thanks so much for taking care of us with the food and through the islands! They were beautiful and we can´t wait to schedule our next trip. Thanks so much!! - Shannon and Jon

To say this trip was amazing is an understatement! Visiting the beautiful islands on a beautiful boat has been an incredible experience! Having said that, this experience would not have been near as enjoyable had we not had the team of Adrien and Christina hosting our trip. Adrien is very knowledgeable as a captain of this boat and Christina was not only the most incredible cook and hostess, the fact that she was so knowledgeable of the islands and transportation was a HUGE relief! - Chris and Dawn

EPIC

What an epic week! Thank you both for working so hard to make sure we never had to lift a finger. The food was amazing, the drinks were always flowing and Adrien´s constantly saying ´Nice´ always made us feel athletic and coordinated! :) Thank you for the beautiful week. It was one for the books!! Love, Derek and Kellie

Thank you so much for an incredible week. We all enjoyed Christina and Adrien so much. Perfect itinerary, great meals, wonderful service and a beautiful boat. We are leaving with so many great memories. Thank you for everything. Dave and Tory

Thank you Christina and Adrien for making our BVI Deep Blue vacation so amazing and memorable! The charter, food and islands were truly perfect. We had the best time with friends making more memories with lots of laughs! Thank you both for making it relaxing, easy and carefree! AJ and Kate

Unforgettable

Dear Christina and Adrien,
We cannot thank you enough for an unforgettable week. Christina, every meal left us speechless and stuffed with amazing food. Between the smoothies, charcuterie boards and scrumptious desserts, it will be hard re-adjusting back at home. I think collectively we have each gained a few pounds but it was well worth it. Merci Beaucoup Adrien, our voyage couldn´t have been any smoother. Thank you for being there whenever we needed a ride on the dinghy, and for helping us around the ship whenver we needed it.

Thanks for a memorable week of food and fun. The rope swing was an amazing idea and I loved your banter Adrien. Christina, I have never been so full. Thanks for an amazing week. The food has actually been so good I don´t know how I´m going to survive at home. Thank you for the amazing experience. It will not be the same without you.

December 28th to January 4th 2023- Holiday Charter

The crew was amazing and some of the best food was prepared. Memories made with friends bringing in the New Year was so much fun. Dancing and eating lobster at the reef, then fished off of it at Sids in Anegada. I would sail with this crew anytime. Thank you for the best start to 2023! – Fonda

What an awesome way to spend Christmas and New Years Eve with great friends. Fantastic crew. Awesome food. Thanks so much. – Carlo

We all had an amazing trip. The crew is fantastic and very attentive to the wishes of the guest. The food was fantastic and served in perfect proportion. I look forward to my next trip with Adrien and Christina. – Susan

This was truly a trip of a lifetime. Thank you all for the fabulous food and the experience overall. Enjoyed every second. - Maggie

First trip on the Deep Blue

I have never sailed before.
For the first time in my life I was in heaven for a week!
The warm breezes of the Caribbean, the teal blue water, the beautiful sunsets and snorkeling were only a mere mention compared to the amazing attention we received from Adrien our captain and our chef Christina.

From the safety to the gourmet meals, this team surpassed even my wildest expectations. I have never felt so cared in all of our travels.

The presentation of the food was incredible. Every detail was attended to and we had to beg to stop feeding us so much. But that’s not what was most incredible. Christina Merianos hit every meal out of the ball park with flavor, wine parings and selections that only added to our enjoyment each and every day. Her commitment to service was continually present every single day and she didn’t skip a beat. By the time we left we felt like family… no we were family.

Adrien as a captain was equally amazing. His attention to the positions of the boat and our personal safety was held in the highest esteem every single day. It was over the top fun to sail sitting on the trampoline!
Adrien was flexible and yet instructive on where we stayed and how we experienced each over night. Not once was I concerned over any issue being my first sail trip.
He watched over us at every turn, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming and getting into that bouncy dingy!

If we sail again, which I hope we can, I can only pray we get this amazing team each time.

With great appreciation;
Kristin and Bob

A wonderful trip

We had a wonderful trip on Deep Blue for our family spring break trip.
Christina was instrumental in ensuring everything went smoothly, from pre-trip with meal and itinerary planning, through the trip in its entirety. She ensured we had everything we needed.
She was so great with our kids. Our meals were amazing, both parent and kid approved !
I highly recommend Deep Blue and their crew!

Amazing Captain

Adrien is an amazing captain. He will drop anything he is doing to help you. He goes above + beyond to make sure you´re having a great time. Boat was incredible, great layout + accommodation

What can I say?

So much! This was my first time on a catamaran yacht. It was one of my most enjoyable lifetime experience! Adrien is personable, professional who kept us safe and served all of us in many ways - captaining the yacht, instructing on operation systems on the boat, ferrying us in the dinghy and teaching me some sailing ! I feel like Adrien is a friend and made the luxurious cruise on a fantastic yacht an over he top experience! Thank you!
