Prepare to be captivated by Ken´s journey through customer service and hospitality. Born in Calgary, Alberta, his destiny took shape at the family´s steakhouse, ´Blackbeard´s.´ This unique pirate ship-inspired establishment fueled Ken´s longing for adventure.

His passion for scuba diving ignited in Mexico, leading to a transformative life path. At Club Med in the Bahamas, he embraced scuba instruction, but it was the British Virgin Islands that stole his heart. Five years immersed in diving and sail charters ensued.

Returning to Canada, Ken pursued real estate while never abandoning his love for diving and sailing. Purchasing a sailboat on Lake Huron, he established his own sailing school. But the call of the ocean led him back to the BVI, his true passion.

Ken shares his expertise and enthusiasm for sailing, diving, and marine life, creating unforgettable experiences. Let him transport you to a realm of wonder on the ultimate vacation.

Picture this: Julie, hailing from a captivating French town in Ontario, Canada. Her summers were filled with the ethereal beauty of the lake, indulging in swimming, boating, fishing, and camping. Yet, the cold winters left her longing for a life by the warm embrace of the ocean.

From her early days as a Developmental Service Worker to her experience in Customer Service, Julie always sought to provide the best service possible. However, her true awakening came when Captain Ken introduced her to the world of sailing.

For three enchanting summers, Julie lived on Ken´s majestic sailboat, learning the art of sailing. This experience taught her the importance of embracing life and happiness. Following her heart´s desire, Julie embarked on a journey to become a Chef, graduating with honors from Ashworth College.

Now, as a Crewed Yacht Chef and 1st Mate, Julie proudly lives her dream. Infusing her passion for cuisine with her commitment to excellence, she creates unforgettable experiences for guests onboard.

What a relaxing and enjoyable vacation! Ken and Julie made everything so easy, the food – breakfast, lunch and dinner were beautiful, delicious and nutritious. All of the moorings were picturesque and Ruby One was the perfect fit for 3 couples. Thank you both everything.

Marc and Joanna from Florida

Ken And Julie are very helpful and great hosts. This is our third Catamaran trip with crew and they did a great job. We highly recommend booking the “Ruby One”

We all had such a great time on Ruby One our captain and chef were very knowledgeable about all the islands and what an amazing chef. They were both very professional and a pleasure to be around. I had to fly out for a couple of days and the Captain was a big help solving logistical problems. We would highly recommend this boat and crew! We will for sure do this again, thanks for the memories.
