Captain: Brandon Fourie

Qualifications:
-RYA Yachtmasters Offshore Commercially Endorsed
-PADI Dive Master
-SRC Radio License
-STCW Basic Safety Training
-ENG1
-Food Healthy & Safety Level 2
-Massage Therapy


Brandon grew up in South Africa and when school holidays came around, his family would head to the coast where he spent his time on boats and in the ocean. At age 14, he completed his Open Water Diving, from there he followed his love for diving, which led him to not only get certified as a Divemaster in Sodwana Bay, Mozambique, but he ended up staying on as an Employee and Instructor.

He has a passion for fishing, spearfishing and freediving. With an interest in sailing, he joined the charter industry with his brother and he continued to work as a Chef on board in the British Virgin Islands for half a decade before being offered a Base Manager position in Saint Vincent & The Grenadines.
The timing was right for him to pursue his biggest dream of becoming a Captain and he gave up his management position to jump back on board and do what he loves most, exploring the oceans above and below sea level.
Not only is he also a masseuse, but he is also the secret keeper for ‘Brandon´s secret spots’ in the BVI which he loves to take guests to.


Chef: Arno Smit

Qualifications:
-Professional Chef HL3
-Food Healthy & Safety Level 2
-RYA Yachtmasters Coastal
-Personal Watercraft Instructor
-STCW Basic Safety Training
-ENG1

Born with a love for the sea and a passion for flavor, Arno began his career on the water as one of the youngest volunteers at South Africa’s National Sea Rescue Institute. After years working as a charter captain, he followed his heart into the galley - and hasn’t looked back since.
Now a formally trained chef from the South African Chefs Academy, Arno specializes in fresh, from-scratch dishes that fuse comfort, creativity, and a hint of South African flair. His guests love his warm hospitality just as much as his home-baked breads and vibrant, locally inspired menus.
Whether catering to dietary needs or surprising guests with traditional delicacies, Arno takes pride in making people feel at home through food.
Off the clock, you’ll find him road-tripping, fishing, or camping under the stars.

— Joseline & Nicolás

Deeply grateful for the experience you created.

“Dear Lyra crew,
I wanted to take a moment to tell you how deeply grateful I am for each of you and for the experience you created. This sailing event was memorable in ways I didn’t fully expect and that is entirely because of the professionalism, kindness, attention to so much detail, and generosity you brought on board. From the steady leadership of the captain, to the dedication and quiet competence of the first mate, to the incredible care and talent of an amazing cook who made every meal something to look forward to, I was continually struck by how seamlessly you worked together. There was a sense of calm, confidence, and genuine hospitality that made it easy to relax and truly be present.

As we prepare to go home, I’m surprised by how hard it is to leave. In such a short time, you became more than a crew, you felt like family. Thank you for sharing your talents, your time, and your hearts. This is an experience we will remember forever.

With sincere appreciation, Bernadine & Steve Davis
’Til we meet again ❤️”

To the crew,
Thank you so much!!!
What an amazing time!!!

Everything was top notch and you made it so seamless!! Who can’t love sushi on the beach and champagne at the Baths!!

Also I think this turned into a new adventure for the girls who were afraid of being sea sick! They loved it!!!

I hope we cross paths again on another charter.

Be well and stay well!!!

Love,
Bob & Christine Genter

PS: Thank you for making Bob’s 50th extra special!!!

Cant wait to be back!

We couldn’t have asked for a better holiday. We wanted to explore the Grenadines and were blown away by the crew’s knowledge of the area.

The food was incredible and the deserts were out of this world. The kids ate everything, which surprised us as they are very picky.

The baot was always in prestige condition. Our cabins were cleaned every day, swim towels were fresh every morning and nothing ever looked out of place.

The crew have high standards of service and hospitality and make us feel like we were at a 5 star resort!

Can’t wait to be back,
The Anderson family

We adore the Lyra crew!

Asking the crew to anchor the boat in once place and use the tender for excursions was a big ask, but whatever we requested, the crew made sure we had.

Captain Brandon Stern tied us next to an amazing reef which we had as our morning view and also got to scuba dive.

Our bellies were always full, everything was always clean and we had the most relaxing environment with music, games, books and a very entertaining crew!

Stories were shared, friends were made and a lot of water toys were used.

We adore the Lyra crew and we recommend her to everyone!

Tom & Mel.
