Okeana Crew Profile
Captain
Chef/Mate
London born, Raph grew up dinghy sailing from a tender age in UK waters but it wasn’t until 2012 that his career in sailing was truly launched.
He partook in the Oyster round the world rally that took him from Mallorca, Spain all the way to Thailand, via the gems of the Pacific Ocean. It was this trip that caused him to fall in love with all things Ocean and he promptly obtained his RYA Yachtmaster.
During this time, he also acquired his bachelor´s degree at the University of Leeds but the pull of getting paid to do something he loved was too strong and he returned to a life on the Ocean.
To date he has completed 4 Atlantic Crossings, 1 Pacific crossing and over 50 charters, so as well as being a fun, friendly and easy-going addition to your group, know you’ll be in extremely safe and experienced hands, too.
Isabel has been chef/mate for almost five years now, in between the Caribbean and the Mediterranean sea. Growing up by the coast sailing with family and friends she became passionate about the ocean and nature.
She has a background in Geography with master degree research on sustainable agriculture working on eco lodge farms developing food products, specially cocoa and chocolate. After 10 years dedicated to that, she decided to pursue her dream of sailing. Cooking became naturally her passion on board exploring local ingredients, researching culinary uses and organic producers around the places she visits for work including many vineyards in Italy Tuscany, France, Portugal and Croatia.
Now she has more than 10000 miles on board of many private and charter boats. Always happy to provide meals made with her love and care for her guests. So far she has hosted more than 300 guests on over 50 charters and always had the blissful moment when everyone is going home full of amazing memories and missing what they had experienced on board.
With their shared love for adventure and hospitality, Raph and Isabel make a great team to ensure the best experience aboard Okeana.

Okeana Guest Reviews
Trip was perfect!
Our family of 5 and my sister in law spent a week sailing in the BVI on the “Okeana” in July 2021. Our captain was Raphael (“Raph”) Marshall-Naef, and our chef was Isabel Sollberg. Everything about the trip was perfect. Raph is a great captain with lots of experience sailing in the BVI, and he took us to all of the best snorkeling spots and fun locations like Soggy Dollar and Willy T’s. Isabel’s cooking was amazing. Best of all, Raph and Isabel are two of the nicest and most fun people you could meet. Our family has done a lot of traveling and everyone thought it was the best trip ever. We all highly recommend Raph and Isabel, 10 out of 10 stars!!
Amazing Week on Okeana!
We spent an amazing week sailing the islands of the BVIs on a 49 foot catamaran, the Okeana! She is a beautiful yacht with a great open design. The best part of the Okeana is the crew. The Skipper, Raph is knowledgeable of the waters and attractions, super competent and confident. He made sure we had a safe, fun and relaxing adventure. Isabel, the chef catered to our every culinary and dietary need. Each meal was beautifully presented and delicious! Isabel took great effort to accommodate to each of our dietary restrictions and tastes. This was a first sailing charter for most of our party and everyone had a great time! We will definitely be back!
