Mare Blu Crew Profile
Captain
STEWARDESS
CAPTAIN MATTHEW ROSS:
Born in a small town outside London, Matthew and the family returned to his father´s Caribbean roots and set up a life in Jamaica. Living on an island you couldn´t ignore the ocean so Matthew´s family was soon very involved in the sailing community where he grew up in Kingston.
Being one for the outdoors life Matthew loved being on the water sailing and racing in Kingston harbor.
In 2015 he decided he wanted to work professionally as a captain so he went off to the Mediterranean for a summer season working as a captain on charter yachts.
Every summer since 2015, minus pandemic 2020, he´s returned to Croatia, Greece, and Italy.
In the winters he´s been on charter programs as rotational or relief captain in the US and the British Virgin Islands, the Exumas, spending his downtime kiteboarding and tending to his bees.
He loves to share his love of the ocean with guests, keeping them entertained with water sports, and checking out the local wildlife and land activities. The Exumas are otherworldly and he can´t wait to show you
STEWARDESS Aleya East:
Aleya is Born in France and moved to the British Virgin Islands where she grew up until She was 5 years old. Her father was the captain of a 75ft sailing catamaran that was based there and Aleya would join him on the boat a lot. He taught her from a young age how to take part in deck duties and assist inside the boat with cleaning and service. She also spent several months on board her parent´s boat in Turkey. They sailed together all over Turkey and the Greek Islands during our summer vacations where she gained more experience. She has also spent several weeks on board a 92ft power catamaran in the Bahamas where her father currently lives and works.
She is passionate about photography.
She is outgoing and has a friendly nature.
CHEF Melissa Kodman:
Melissa was born and raised in Phoenix Arizona and went on to attend university there as well. Her passion for traveling started at a young age and hasn´t slowed down since! Five years ago she decided to make a career switch from sales and turn her focus on her love for cooking and seeing new places. Since then she´s worked in Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, and throughout the Caribbean.
She just recently graduated from Ashburton Cookery School with a certificate in Culinary Arts. She can´t wait to show you all the new things she´s learned while you´re on board. She always tries to incorporate fresh and local ingredients to create a culinary experience you´ll never forget! When she´s not in the kitchen you can find her snorkeling with turtles, hiking to find the best views, or reading a book in the sun.
The crew on board Mare Blu are fully vaccinated.

Our sincere thanks,

Captain Jason and Chef Mindy,
Thank you so much for making our first charger boat trip and first trip to the Virgin Islands so awesome! We enjoyed relaxing in the sun, swimming in the beautiful blue waters, the great food and cocktails! We appreciate your gracious hospitality and knowledge of the islands. This was a bucket list item for us, and it was wonderful! The magic tricks and playing “cards against humanity” with you was a bonus!

Couldn´t Have Asked For A Better Crew!
Thank you guys for such an amazing vacation! I don´t think that we could have asked for a better chef and captain! This has definitely been the best vacation that I have been on by far! Chef Mindy, your food is the best food that I have ever had, I also think that´s the most I have eaten in a long time :)
Captain Jason, I´ve really enjoyed watching you and Mindy work together, when in the kitchen and all of the duties on the boat. Your positive attitude is awesome and made this trip amazing.
I could go on and on about how amazing this trip has been, but I might run out of paper.
Thank you both so much.
Above &Beyond Our Expectations.
Capt Jason and Chef Mindy , you two were above and beyond our expectations!
this was a family trip that we will all remember for a lifetime. You made an already close family, closer. Seeing you two work together was an inspiration for any relationship. We could not have picked a better pair for our family than the two of you.
I know we will be telling stories from this trip for a very long time. Chef Mindy, thank you for the absolutely incredible food and Capt Jason thanks for always doing the dishes :)
Thank you for planning all the fun on shore excursions and sharing all the history with us. Thank you for going above and beyond with the kids and making their experience amazing as well.
We have been looking forward to this trip for so long and now we can start to plan and look forward to our next adventure with the two of you!
Thanks again for everything!!
Unforgettable!

Truly A Trip Of A Lifetime!
Thank you so much for all you did to make our trip one of the most memorable ever! Both of you were so easy to be around and know how to be very gracious hosts! ....And then there was the Food!! Oh my, Mindy you are an amazing chef. There was not one meal that we didn´t finish - WOW!
So many laughs and so much fun. Truly a trip of a lifetime.
We Loved Every Minute
What a Trip! the laughs, funs and good times and people were what made it a trip of a lifetime. Chef Mindy deserves special mention for every meal cooked - each one was beyond delicious. And Jason for answering the same questions over and over - haha- and keeping all the toys ready for all of us to enjoy. We appreciate everything y´all did for us to make our trip magical.
We loved every minute.
We felt like royalty!
Thank you again for a trip of a lifetime!
The first day was our son´s 10th birthday and it was one Jack will never forget. Thank you for spoiling him with his favorite meal in the whole world!
Every meal was phenomenal and elegantly served. We felt like royalty! So many favorites mixed with delicious new foods to try.
Spending Easter on Dolphin Daze was so special - coloring eggs and finding them and going on shore to a beautiful Easter Morning church service!
The icing on the cake was renewing our vows for our 20th Anniversary at the hands of Captain Jason followed by a 20´s swing dance party! Wigs, costumes and all - Mindy you are a Master of Costumes and fun.
Incredible!
Where do I begin?
This trip has been a dream of ours and to be able to be here fulfilled it, and with you was incredible!
From the moment we stepped on Dolphin Daze, you took care of every need BEFORE we even knew we needed it. Our daughters will never forget any detail and return will we.
From the fabulous food, delicious cocktails, fun hikes, water mat antics, sunset cocktails to the excursions - all made us feel so special - new friends for life!
Many many thanks!
Priceless!
I cannot say enough good things about this trip. You guys went over and above to accommodate us and make sure we were having fun. Every bit of food and cocktail consumed on this trip was amazing. Y´all may not realize this but beyond the things that you did to make our trip wonderful, you gave us an opportunity to forget about day to day duties back home by allowing us to just be our pre-kid, pre-responsibility selves and that´s what made this trip priceless.
Lifetime Trip
What a fabulous trip! We truly enjoyed every moment - from our gourmet meals to the fantastic excursions.
I Laughed More Than I Ever Have.
Jason and Mindy thank you for helping me slide into my 50th year! It will certainly be memories I will never forget. From Beginning to end every detail was thought of and taken care of with a smiling face. Every meal and drink was made to perfection. I think I laughed more than I ever have and truly loved every second spent with your guys!
I truly hope our paths cross again.

Cannot Thank You Enough
I know you all are preparing for your next guests tomorrow, but I wanted to reach out and say thank you again. I cannot thank you all enough for making our 50 Years of Tita trip one of the best I have ever had in my life. Everything was perfect and so well thought out. I know that so much effort went in on your parts but you both made it look effortless. We hated to leave and getting back to work and life was no fun today but at least we were able to escape for a while. I hope you all have a great season. You are both so, so good at what you do. Be careful and have fun coaching up your next guests on Mexican Train Dominoes. We will definitely be back once our livers recover.
What A Fabulous Week
Thank you so much for all our fun experiences - old and new. Our word of the day helped expand our grey matter i.e. efficacy, smarmy, ...... Our drinks of the day throughout the days helped us realize our need for AA meetings :)
Seriously we enjoyed everything about our week so much, the food was fabulous and the company superb.
See you soon
