Captain Adriana
Captain Adriana was born and raised in Puerto Rico. She grew up in and out of the water but has always had the privilege of being on boats most of her life. Her love for sailing developed in her 20’s when her dad bought his first cruising sailboat. This lead to her being able to explore some of the most exotic sailing destinations in the Caribbean. Previous to her sailing to these exotic destinations she went to college in Florida where she got a her BBA degree and also where she met Chef Justin. During her time in Florida she also worked in the service industry where she was able to fine tune her passion for entertaining. Coming from this background she was able to combine her love of the water and hosting into the perfect career for her being a charter captain. She is a very determined young woman making her way in this industry which is thanks to being such a hard worker.

Chef Rachael Denning
Come Adventure in the Caribbean with Chef Rachael!

East coast, born and raised in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Rachael spent her summers living with her extended family in Newburyport, MA, and North Wildwood, NJ. These places are where sailing first caught her eye. For the past two years she has been a crew member of Sail Wild Hearts in sweet home Orange Beach, Alabama. Rachael enjoys surfing, yoga, tennis, playing her steel drum, braiding hair, and making people laugh. She attended the majority of her college years at the University of Pittsburgh Johnstown, majoring in Chemical Engineering with career aspirations of, one day, starting her own Holistic company. Having a deep passion for clean personal care products, Rachael aspires to fulfill a greater purpose by protecting public health from dangerous ingredients that are commonly found in our everyday household items.

Her culinary experience has been exemplified in her nine years dedicated to the restaurant industry. Fulfilling every position from the front of the house to the back of the house, Rachael took the most liking to the Food aspect of a restaurant. Notably, her “cheffing journey” really took off after her first sailboat delivery, where her crew consisted of two Israelis and a South American. This inspired her to continue developing the diversity of her culinary expertise in various locations including a Mediterranean kitchen and a quaint Italian cafe. Gaining knowledge every day through worldly experiences, Chef Rachael offers a wide variety of cultural cuisines. Today, her culinary style renders flavors of American, Asian, Italian, Mediterranean, Mexican, and is working on incorporating flavors of the Caribbean. As her grandmother always says, “If you can read a recipe, you can cook anything!”.

Rachael is truly someone who cares about others. Understanding the role of her job, her goal is to ensure her guests are enjoying their time to the fullest. Nothing is too extravagant; she finds it important to go above and beyond for her guests to ensure your vacation will be unforgettable!

Memento Amori Guest Reviews

March 2024

We felt very well cared for by Adriana and Rachel. They were attentive, accommodating, and they seemed to know our needs and wants without our having to ask. We enjoyed their humor and flexibility. We also felt safe and they did an excellent job caring for us and keeping us safe.

January 2024

Thank You Adriana & Rachael for helping us celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary in style. I know it was your first voyage together, but it seemed like you have been together for years. The trip was the perfect blend of relaxation, fine dining, sightseeing, and fun. I hope we can see both of you back on the Memento Amori again in the near future.

July 2023

It´s rare in this world to receive the quality of service that we received from Capt. Adriana and Justin. Words can´t adequately describe the appreciation we have for your kindness and professionalism. You are at the top of your game. We will 100% rebook a charter with you!

July 2023

We had such a wonderful adventure! Absolutely love and recommend Capt. Adriana and Justin - they made us feel at home and both bring wonderful gifts that complement each other!

May 2023

Our trip to the BVI on Memento Amori far exceeded all of our expectations! It was one of our best vacations ever! Captain Adriana was very professional and a great sailor….She arranged 2 wonderful days of scuba for us in the BVI. I can’t say enough about 1st mate and chef, Justin. His culinary skills are superb and the presentations were exquisite. Every meal was a fine dining experience.

The two of them were instrumental in making our trip a step above all others.
The catamaran was beautiful and spacious for 4 couples (each having our own double bed and head). We spent mornings snorkeling off the rear or playing with toys in the water…Evenings on the covered fly deck were magical with a pitcher of painkillers! The 48’ bali was new and meticulously clean. We had everything we could have wanted….My favorite was the cappuccino bar with Justin’s yummy cookies!….I am looking forward to sailing on the Memento Amori again soon!!

Memento Amori was our home for 10 days. It was such a beautiful and well provisioned catamaran. Meal time was always special with great food and a beautifully set table.
Happy hour on the fly bridge with a hardtop cover was amazing. Breeze, view and shade coupled with fantastic libations- the recipe for perfection. Lots of fun toys to hang out on when we weren´t snorkeling. Captain and Chef were great. They were very accommodating and worked hard to make our trip special. We would definitely book this boat again.

Loved, loved, loved spending 10 days on Memento Amori!!!

We´ve been on lots of sailboats and have always fought for the moving shady spots. Memento Amori´s large shaded fly bridge was amazing!

Can´t say enough about the gourmet foods that Justin whipped up for us. Loved the fresh herb garden on board and the espresso machine was an added treat!

Adriana is an incredibly experienced captain, especially to be so young! And she makes some mean cocktails!!!

I would be living on the sailboat with them if life weren´t in the way. Can´t wait to go back next year!
