Years Chartering2


Born in San Diego, California, I grew up sailing and offshore sport fishing Southern California, as well as the Pacific Northwest (between Coos Bay and Roseburg, OR) where I spent summers. In 1982, I purchased and lived on my first sailboat, an Ericson 35´ Sloop, in San Diego, leading to a passion for sailing that pointed my compass to St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. In 1995 shortly after hurricane ´Marilyn´ had destroyed the island. Regardless of the destruction and debris, I immediately fell in love with the beauty of the V.I., its people, and the lifestyle. Being a general contractor at the time, I immediately shipped my truck and tools from San Diego and began to re-build homes and businesses on St. Thomas and St. John for the next ten years. As a result, I had an amazing opportunity to work and play, on multiple charter and pleasure yachts, both sail and power, with some of the best people and mariners in the industry. Also, as a result, I have a lifetime of marine mechanical, electrical, diesel and outboard engine repair, as well as general yacht maintenance and management. I have been from Alaska to Costa Rica, including the Hawaiian islands on the Pacific, and Maine to the U.S.V.I. on the Atlantic. I have worked my way through the ranks from deckhand to first mate, chef, engineer, and then finally captain, and will thankfully continue to learn daily sharing and enjoying the beauty of Seas!

Oui Cherie Guest Reviews

November 2023

We are well and had a fantastic charter. The boat was more than we expected, cabins were nicely outfitted and ver comfortable. The crew, Capt Brian and Shannon were perfect. Both with lots of suggestions re locations to snorkel, restaurants or bars on the islands and different hikes to explore. And the meals on board were excellent. They both did an excellent job, and each night’s mooring was breathtaking.

Jana and Matt, we were planning this trip a long time ago, we are so blessed and lucky to have been with such a great crew like you are. The best chef Jana and a great captain. You both are the best of the best, you are patient, welcoming, always taking care of all the small details that made this adventure even better.

July 2023

Aren´t we lucky! Jana you food was amazing. It is the cherry on top. My kids enjoyed every part of it. Looking forward to the next, your friends Esthor, Sergio, Alexa and Maximo.

July 2023

Thank you for a superb trip. The cooking, caring, guidance and patience with my boys was outstanding. I appreciate your adaptability. We loved our boat and island time. You made us feel welcome and comfortable. This was an amazing adventure and we hope to do it again!

July 2023

Dear Chef Jana and dear Capt. Matt,

Thank you for welcoming us aboard. Aren´t we lucky with your cheerful kindness and gracious hospitality! Thank you for making every single minute of our stay an incredible experience! We won´t forget these delightful, fabulous, amazing days and we especially won´t forget Chef Jana´s delicious cooking and marvelous presentation and Capt. Matt´s impressively skillful handling of the boat. Everything was above and beyond and we can´t wait to come back! With heartfelt gratitude to our new friends!

June 2023

Matt and Jana, although it is tempting to give top billing to the enchanting chef/first mate Jana, it is the seamless manning that Capt. Matt performs the operation of the vessel that makes this extraordinary experience just that - extraordinary. The series of excursions and diversions makes 7 days seem twice as long. The dining from breakfast to dinner, desserts is a deeply memorable series of delights. It would be difficult to imaging two more delightful souls to guide and pamper their guests through an utterly unforgettable experience. Thank you so much!

May 2023

Capt Matt - Your superb handing of the boat was very comforting and extremely capable. Not once did anything seem rushed or worrisome. Your knowledge of all of our excursions and the details for us in a foreign place. Your conversation was easy and again very knowledgable. Thank you for making this bucket list item such a pleasure!

Chef Jana - oh man, but your creative meals was top shelf. You charmed us with colorful and delightful, healthy and flavorful food! Beginning with imaginative starters to dangerously delicious desserts. You were kind and thorough in your service and I appreciate our side conversations! You two make an effective and amazingly fun team. With gratitude, Lisa B.

May 2023

Captain Matt and Chef/Best Mate Jana, we have absolutely enjoyed our time onboard! You knowledge of the islands and oceans are extraordinary! Thank you for showing us many memorable places, above water and below! Everything was perfect and we couldn´t have asked for anything more. The meals have been wonderful! You presentations were not only appealing to the eyes, everything was delicious! We are so very happy with our trip!

April 2023

Chef jana and Capt. Matt,

Thank you for this once in a lifetime adventure. The trip has been everything we hoped for and more. St. Thomas and St. John´s are truly paradise! I wish time would have stand still so we won´t have to say good-bye. Until next time - our sincerest thanks! P.S. the food was beyond amazing! Jana you´re an excellent chef!
