Captain: Robert Sargeant
Originally from Zimbabwe, Robbie was brought up on a farm with a love for the outdoors, sport and a keen sense for adventure. His hobbies also include golf and darts but his favorite from a young age was and always has been fishing, whether it’s fresh water or deep sea. After school, he moved to South Africa to play professional rugby, but it was not long before he decided on it being an unlikely permanent career choice. He turned towards scuba diving instead, despite the cold waters of Cape Town and worked his way up to becoming an instructor. After a few years of this, Robbie grew keen to search for warmer water to dive in and accepted a job in Raja Ampat, Indonesia. The travel bug set in, Captain’s ticket in hand and many nautical miles later, there is nothing that Robbie loves more than finding new places to have fun in, both above and under the water.
Born and raised in the landlocked country of Zimbabwe, Sofia’s love for water originated whilst growing up as a national swimmer and waterpolo player. Working throughout studying within restaurants and catering, it gave her an opportunity to build up experience in hospitality, develop professionalism within the service industry but most of all appreciate different cuisines. After graduating from University of Cape Town, South Africa with a Social Science degree, Sofia realized she wasn’t motivated towards a formal office setting and sought after a career in which she could combine her love of travel with learning new skills. Discovering the world of yachting she has since worked in the Mediterranean, Australia, Indonesia, Florida and the Caribbean. Being able to explore new places and gain a passion for cooking along the way has been a dream realized.
Robbie and Sofie met in Singapore, soon found common ground of similar roots and have been working together within the industry since then for the last 5 years. Their combined passion for food, travel and most of all the ocean has brought them together to love what they do. They have been lucky enough to get to know some extraordinary, remote locations around the world but also appreciate being able to share time with family and friends in their home country, Zimbabwe.
As a team, they love being able to entertain, share stories and meet new people to learn theirs. Robbie and Sofie are keen on keeping charters light-hearted while making it a priority to go above and beyond so that their guests always have an adventure to remember.
Kirsten, a native of South Africa, grew up enjoying the pleasant climate and taking part in various outdoor activities, such as photography, swimming, and showjumping. She excelled in golf and earned several titles and a place on provincial teams before scuba diving captured her imagination during her first dive in the ocean. She attended the University of Johannesburg where her studies in Industrial Design deepened her appreciation of the ocean ecosystem and sparked a passion for developing projects to address ocean conservation. As her interest in photography shifted to the underwater world, she found herself drawn to a non-traditional career and pursued full-time work in diving and sailing. She honed her skills in Tuna fishing and spearfishing while working for a fishing charter company in Cape Town. Today, her love for the ocean and marine life remains one of her greatest passions.

Reviews
Happy New Year!!! You three are an amazing team that exceeded so many of our expectations for this trip. We cam e as two families but are leaving as a family with 3 new additions ( you guys). Together we started our days off, ate together, played together, explored together, relaxed together, joked and played music together, watched sunrises and sunsets and re-generated our "batteries" so we can head home to work and think about how to get right back to the islands. You each bring so much life, adventure, and top notch service to create a special environment for us. This is certainly a trip we will NEVER forget. If you are ever in the states near Washington D.C. please look us up... we'd be so happy to treat you to some of what makes our home special. From all the Herrs, thank you so much. god bless, fair winds and calm seas.
-Douglas
Robbie, Kirsten, and Sofia
Thank you for a wonderful week that exceeded all expectations. We knew we would see many beautiful locations, do some fun snorkeling and paddle boarding and enjoy being pampered, but you three made this trip all that and more. From story time, to the meals, to the drinks and beyond-everything really was spectacular. Add to that our first SCUBA experience and a host of other great opportunities, and it makes us want to do it all over again-right now!
You are a great team, and we are well aware of how lucky we were to have you. Best of luck in 2024, and we hope to see you again!
-Rob, Katie, and Alex
My oh my, what a wonderful world it is with you on C'est la Vie! We'e created fantastic memories this week thanks to you and all of your above and beyond efforts. You took such good care of us and we can't say "Thank you" enough. Christmas 2023 will always be an unbelievable memory! We so appreciate all of the pampering and of course, the out of this world food!
Happy 2024 to you and many happy journeys.
Bon Voyage!

Mike and Rosi
Truly at a loss for words. The most dynamic crew with fascinating stories we will cherish forever. thank you for helping us create a once in a life time memory.
-Em and Sam
What an amazing week. You looked after us all so beautifully. Always smiling, always making our days full of fun and making it seem so effortless. It is appreciated and we know that it actually takes masses of work. Thank you
The food was sublime-best in the BVI. The drinks were perfect and I loved the "surprise" every evening from Kirsten's repertoire. The water sports were fun and thankfully injury free!
Here's to another year!
Love Francesca and Jon

We look forward to our next adventure with you!!
all our love,

We hardly know where to begin! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this a trip of a lifetime. The itinerary was a perfect mix of adventure (cave snorkeling, baths, hiking) and relaxation (beach picnic, dinner on shore, sunset happy hours). All had fun with the water toys as well. Sofie you made us feel like royalty with your gourmet and delicious food and Kristen with your top notch service. Robbie who knew you were a tour guide, boat captain, housekeeper, and bee vanquisher-haha.
We cannot wait to come back!
Erin and Nick

Thank you for a truly spectacular week on C'EST LA VIE! We appreciate everything you all did to make our week so special. Robbie your itinerary was perfect for our group (the Baths adventure, some bar hopping stops and the quiet coves where we could relax and play on the top notch toys). Sofie, your menus were absolute perfection: beautiful to behold and even more delicious to eat. Our food photos from the week will make us all instagram famous! And sweet Kirsten, with the amazing cocktails, and attentive service. How will we find our sunglasses without you??
You are all incredible at what you do and we are grateful to have gotten to know you!

This trip has been a dream come true. Many nights Marie and I watched "Below Deck" and dreamed of our version of this vacation. You have made everything very special and attention to detail is top notch. A true 50th Birthday for Mark and beyond! Thank you for guiding us around the islands, knowing all the perfect places to snorkel and eat. We couldn't ask for anything more!
We will never forget you or this fabulous trip!
Much Love
Heather and Mark
Robbie, Sophia, Kristen
What can I say... the past 8 days have been absolutely amazing! It was hard to "let go" and be catered to but finally relaxed.:) I'm so thankful for your patient help and teaching of Kristen on certifying us to dive. I will forever be thankful you are "The Best."
The meals were amazing and beautiful, thank you Sophia!
Robbie, we always felt safe in your hands and love your humor!! Thank you for a trip of a lifetime! Hopefully we will see you again!!
-Barry and Julie
To the amazing crew of C'EST LA VIE,
John and I will never forget the experience of your service, professionalism, and love of the water in the BVI. From the moment we stepped foot on this amazing vessel to the very bitter end we were alive! It's truly hard to put it all into words-our memories will last a lifetime!
Love
John and Nicole
We can't thank you enough for all you have to make this vacation so special. It was beyond what we expected. Captain Robbie, we loved story time and all the adventures we got to go on each day. Sofie, these were some of the best meals we have ever had. You are so sweet and positive, Robbie is lucky to have you! Kristen, you made killer cocktails and we loved hearing about your AMAZING diving stories.
Overall, I don't think we will ever be able to top this vacation! (unless we come back)
Please plan a trip to come visit us in Cape Cod!
Love Always,
Liv, Rob, Nicole, Robby, T, Dylan, Alex, Sean
Robbie, Sofie, Kristen,
As Liv said you exceed our expectations in every way possible and we can never thank you all enough for these memories. There are many favorite parts to our trip, from hearing of your own life adventures to the adventures we took together, meals and drinks shared, all the beautiful spots, and much laughter.
The three of you quickly felt like part of our family and will be considered that way for always. We cannot wait to see you again when you visit us in Cape Cod.
Thank you again for a magical adventure that will forever be in our hearts.
With Love
Liv, Rob, Nicole, Robby, T, Dylan, Alex, Sean
The boat - wow! Exceeded our expectations. The pictures really don’t do it justice. The room accommodations were more spacious with higher quality fixtures, bedding, lighting, A/C, electricity, storage than expected. Very very nice! The availability of comfy deck seating and water sport toys was awesome. Organization, cleanliness and attention to detail was top notch.
The crew - not even sure where to begin…. Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make our vacation super special. It was obvious that they had read and digested our preference form, and made sure the food, beverages, schedule were tailored to our party. Story time with Robbie, drink of the day prepped/served by Hannah, and the five-star meals made and served by Sofie were cherished daily delights. We are all seriously missing Sofie - she is a treasure!
This vacation was simply PERFECT and we are tremendously grateful for you and the crew making it so special. We look forward to the next time aboard C’est La Vie!

The Burnetts
Words really do not do justice to how much we have enjoyed our week on board with you all! We have had such an amazing time-amazing dives, snorkeling, e-foiling (with varying degrees of success must be said) together with the fabulous fabulous meals and excursions.

-Mel and Dan
What an amazing trio! We feel oh so lucky to be your first charter on this spectacular vessel. You took such care of our family from planning our itinerary to dealing with the unexpected true hospitality.
Captain Robbie,
The conductor, the leader of the band-telling us stories of the islands, patiently answering our questions, reminding us that age is just a number and always with a smile on your face!
First Mate Dean,
Man of constant motion, so appreciative of your easy going way while introducing us to new aquatic experiences and always aware and attentive to our needs before we know we even need.
Chef Sofie,
A true culinary artiste in the galley! You were very mindful of our dietary requests and exceeded our expectations. The presentations from breakfast to dinner (and all the cocktails in between) were delivered with beautiful attention to detail-be it simple or complex the fare was amazing!
We loved our days in the BVI and are grateful to have 3 new Zimbabwean friends!
Please come visit us in SC and play some golf!
-The Spinks
To say thank you for the most incredible week doesn't feel like nearly enough. This trip has been something our family has been looking forward to for literally years, but never in my wildest dreams did I think it be anything like it turned out to be. The two words that keep coming to mind are exceptional and magical!! The three of you made this experience far exceed any hopes and dreams I had coming into this week. Your attention to detail, the outstanding meals, your friendliness and your company... every single one and so much more truly made this an experience of a lifetime! You helped our family make memories that will live in our minds and hearts forever!
Captain Robbie,
your sense of humor and gentle nature was truly appreciated! It was a joy to get to know you! Thank you for sharing these beautiful islands and for all the incredible experiences and amazing places you took us this past week.
Chef Sofie,
You outdid yourself with every meal! It was such a gift especially to me to be taken care of so meticulously. You put your heart into every one of your fabulous meals, and it came through every single time! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
Frist Mate Dean/Dingo,
How you know what to do ahead of time to make all of the kids happy and keep them busy was amazing! You made sure we all had every activity and toy and float ready and waiting every second, and for that I am so grateful!
Again thank you all for the most magical experience! I'm so grateful to have met you all. I truly feel like I have new friends. We will definitely see you again!
Love the Hyers
Love Robbie and Sofie. They went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. They were very flexible and listened to our requests and suggestions of things we’d like to do and we’re very accommodating in the itinerary. Sofie’s cooking was outstanding. They both took time to get to know our family and it showed with how well we were taken care of every day. Overall it felt very personalized and very special. An exceptionally memorable vacation. Well done!
Aboard 2 Nov 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia
Robbie and Sofie were the most incredible hosts. As a all ladies group we were a little over the top and Robbie did a great job hanging. They both did a wonderful job balancing professionalism, safety, gourmet cuisine, and fun. There were handfuls of moments where they both went above and beyond to make the trip special. Noticing our silly needs even before we knew we had them. Sofie knew when to play the perfect song, add disco lights, and could remember who liked what with their food. They are the BEST first mate and captian we have ever had. Please tell them we genuinely loved every moment and appreciate them endlessly!
Aboard Jun 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Robbie and Sophia were absolutely AMAZING!!! they truly went above and beyond with their services. They were so much FUN and were always keeping us organized. coming back from snorkeling and finding our towels folded, and then keeping our snorkel and dive gear all organized was such a surprise. We love them both dearly, and hope to sail again with them very soon!!!! Was truly our BEST VACATION EVER!!!! Not sure if any other captain and first mate could match their services.
Aboard May 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Robbie and Sofia went above our expectations! He helped in every way possible. If we asked for it or he just heard us talking, Robbie made sure our wishes came true. Excellent service by both. Hats off to Robbie and Sofia.
Aboard 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia
Any superlatives that one can use for the work of Sophia and Robbie are inadequate. They are simply wonderful people that do an amazing job. The sailing was excellent, the food was superb and the interaction with Sophia and Robbie was great. I cannot imagine how they could possibly have done better.
Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Sofia and Robbie was very professional and attentive to our family. Sophia accommodated the dietary requirements of our youngest daughter with the skills of a five star chef. Robbie commanded the yacht with ease and confidence. His choice of moorings and anchorages were all beautiful locations to enjoy the sunsets and sunrises. The music play list provided by the crew were the best I have experienced
Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Robbie and Sophie went above and beyond on this vacation. Sophie really catered to all our dietary needs. Robbie took us to several places and told us stories about each place. Every night they asked how we enjoyed the day and if there was anything that we wanted to do the next day.
Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Robbie and Sofie were an excellent crew. Robbie kept everything interesting, played great music, and was very engaging and fun. Sofie was also very engaging, made excellent meals, and was exceptionally accommodating for some of our special dietary needs. They were both highly professional yet still super friendly, I would gladly sail with them again.
Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
The service on this trip was phenomenal! Mind you we have never had bad service with Tradewinds but Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make sure we had a great vacation. Their customer service was exceptional. I cannot say enough good things about them. They made sure we had everything we needed at all times so we could relax and enjoy our time in the BVIs. Scuba, snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing, hiking, geocaching. We did it all!
Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
Captain Robby and first mate, Sophia, were perfect hosts. Their competence and attention to keeping tidy quarters were superb. They each had their own special culinary skills -- Robby was a supreme grill master and Sophie excelled at presentation and taste.
Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
This was my first (and probably only) catamaran experience, and I was so honored to spend it with Robbie and Sofia on that awesome 60-ft!! They were most attentive and went out of their ways to make sure we had everything we needed and catered, when necessary. I had a bruised ankle and fell and injured that same ankle toward the beginning of the trip. They still catered to my inability to take more dingy trips. They were there to give me more than adequate support (my, they both are so STRONG). The food was awesome, and we expressed our desire (with everyone on our boat) that we'd pay for a recipe book for all that we ate. Sofie prepared it with the love and expertise desired by TradeWinds, and Robbie was a perfect 1st Mate in the kitchen. He was a perfect Captain, while Sofie was the perfect 1st Mate otherwise. They are well-trained and completely socially compatible with each other and all of us. If my husband and I were more water sports enthusiasts and younger, we might have enjoyed it even more.
Aboard 9 Feb 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.
The crew: Robbie and Sophie were one of the most dedicated and professional crews we ever had. It is very important to point out that, although crews are, in general, of great excellence, this one exceeded all our expectations. Robbie is a very professional sailor and diving instructor. Sophie a superb chef. Both constitute a very good team. Last but not least, both are very, very, very good people.

- wpcf_crew: a:16:{s:4:"info";s:5655:"Originally from Zimbabwe, Robbie was brought up on a farm with a love for the outdoors, sport and a keen sense for adventure. His hobbies also include golf and darts but his favorite from a young age was and always has been fishing, whether it’s fresh water or deep sea. After school, he moved to South Africa to play professional rugby, but it was not long before he decided on it being an unlikely permanent career choice. He turned towards scuba diving instead, despite the cold waters of Cape Town and worked his way up to becoming an instructor. After a few years of this, Robbie grew keen to search for warmer water to dive in and accepted a job in Raja Ampat, Indonesia. The travel bug set in, Captain’s ticket in hand and many nautical miles later, there is nothing that Robbie loves more than finding new places to have fun in, both above and under the water.<br /> <br /> Born and raised in the landlocked country of Zimbabwe, Sofia’s love for water originated whilst growing up as a national swimmer and waterpolo player. Working throughout studying within restaurants and catering, it gave her an opportunity to build up experience in hospitality, develop professionalism within the service industry but most of all appreciate different cuisines. After graduating from University of Cape Town, South Africa with a Social Science degree, Sofia realized she wasn’t motivated towards a formal office setting and sought after a career in which she could combine her love of travel with learning new skills. Discovering the world of yachting she has since worked in the Mediterranean, Australia, Indonesia, Florida and the Caribbean. Being able to explore new places and gain a passion for cooking along the way has been a dream realized.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie met in Singapore, soon found common ground of similar roots and have been working together within the industry since then for the last 5 years. Their combined passion for food, travel and most of all the ocean has brought them together to love what they do. They have been lucky enough to get to know some extraordinary, remote locations around the world but also appreciate being able to share time with family and friends in their home country, Zimbabwe.<br /> <br /> As a team, they love being able to entertain, share stories and meet new people to learn theirs. Robbie and Sofie are keen on keeping charters light-hearted while making it a priority to go above and beyond so that their guests always have an adventure to remember.<br /> <br /> Kirsten, a native of South Africa, grew up enjoying the pleasant climate and taking part in various outdoor activities, such as photography, swimming, and showjumping. She excelled in golf and earned several titles and a place on provincial teams before scuba diving captured her imagination during her first dive in the ocean. She attended the University of Johannesburg where her studies in Industrial Design deepened her appreciation of the ocean ecosystem and sparked a passion for developing projects to address ocean conservation. As her interest in photography shifted to the underwater world, she found herself drawn to a non-traditional career and pursued full-time work in diving and sailing. She honed her skills in Tuna fishing and spearfishing while working for a fishing charter company in Cape Town. Today, her love for the ocean and marine life remains one of her greatest passions.<br /> <br /> ROBERT ‘ROBBIE’ SARGENT MARITIME QUALIFICATIONS<br /> <br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Unlimited<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Limited<br /> (Practical & Theory)<br /> • ENG 1 Medical (Valid 2022)<br /> • STCW 95 - Complete Basic Training<br /> • RYA Tender Operator<br /> • RYA Powerboat Level II<br /> • RYA Powerboat Advanced<br /> • RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> • RYA Shore based Day Skipper for Sail Power Craft<br /> • RYA Radar Course<br /> • RYA Diesel Engine Course<br /> • RYA VHF Radio<br /> • SYSA Deckhand Course<br /> <br /> DIVING QUALIFICATIONS<br /> • PADI Speciality Instructor<br /> • EFR First Aid Instructor<br /> • Bauer Compressor Operator<br /> • ScubaPro Level1 Equipment Service Technician<br /> • Aqualung Level 2 Equipment Service Technician<br /> <br /> SOFIA ‘SOFIE’ RIBEIRO QUALIFICATIONS<br /> <br /> • ENG1 (Valid 2022)<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Unlimited<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Limited<br /> (Theory & Practical)<br /> • STCW & PDSD<br /> • International Driver’s Licence (Valid 2021)<br /> • PADI Open Water Diver<br /> • Food Safety & Hygiene Level II<br /> • RYA Powerboat Level II<br /> • RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> Ashburton Cookery School-Advanced Course 2023<br /> • Beginner’s Course in Floristry<br /> • Basic Cocktail Masterclass<br /> • Bachelor of Social Science<br /> <br /> KIRSTIN KLOPPERS Maritime Qualifications<br /> <br /> RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore (Sailing) Commercial Endorsement (200GT) <br /> SAS Yachtmaster Coastal<br /> SAMSA SRC/VHF Radio<br /> RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> RYA Powerboat Level II <br /> RYA Competent Crew <br /> Food Safety at Sea Level II <br /> RYA Superyacht Training <br /> ENG1 Medical<br /> STCW 2010<br /> PADI IDC Staff Instructor <br /> PADI Specialty Instructor <br /> International Bartender Course 2023<br /> Wine and Spirit Educational Trust Certificate 2023<br /> Diploma Industrial Design";s:5:"photo";s:81:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164brochure44.jpg";s:4:"size";s:1:"3";s:12:"captain_name";s:15:"Robert Sargeant";s:14:"captain_nation";s:24:"South African/Zimbabwean";s:12:"captain_born";s:4:"1993";s:15:"captain_license";s:44:"IYT Master 200t, PADI Speciality Instructor ";s:18:"captain_yr_sailing";s:1:"0";s:21:"captain_yr_chartering";s:1:"0";s:17:"captain_languages";s:8:"English ";s:9:"crew_name";s:12:"Sofia Ribero";s:16:"crew_nationality";s:32:"British, Portuguese, Zimbabwean ";s:12:"crew_license";s:0:"";s:15:"crew_yr_sailing";s:1:"0";s:18:"crew_yr_chartering";s:1:"0";s:7:"crewimg";a:3:{i:1;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew1.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:7:"Captain";}i:2;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew2.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:4:"Chef";}i:3;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew3.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:4:"Crew";}}}

A well-appointed 2022 Lagoon Sixty7, C’est La Vie offers bespoke luxury in 2 spacious Queen cabins and a massive master cabin, each with en-suite washrooms and plenty of living space. Topside you will find multiple sun beds, loungers and wet bars aplenty. Her crew of 3 leaves no need unmet; offering decades of combined professional experience to create a seamless, customized and highly interactive encounter. No finer culinary experience can be found ashore or afloat, as chef Sofia provides a rich understanding of all things epicurean while undertaking the constant search for the finest and freshest ingredients. Captain Robbie will keep you feeling at ease, with his unassuming, patient approach and his dry wit. He is an avid waterman, excelling in scuba, fishing and engaging in a keen interest for Nautical lore. First mate Kirsten knows all of the best snorkels and hikes, and at the end of a long day (or morning hike) will shake up a cocktail that would make Hemingway swoon. C’est La Vie’s offerings are second to none, including electric foiling surfboards, sea bobs, scuba compressor and gear, floating docks and a massive tender to get you to the finest beaches. Interested in becoming dive certified? Captain Robbie is a PADI dive instructor and can indulge guests of all abilities in exploring the underwater world. Sit in the lap of luxury via a professionally designed and decorated interior. In addition to outdoor activities, the yacht boasts a powerful hi-fi system, lots of games and movies.

His hobbies also include golf and darts but his favorite from a young age was and always has been fishing, whether it’s fresh water or deep sea. After school, he moved to South Africa to play professional rugby, but it was not long before he decided on it being an unlikely permanent career choice. He turned towards scuba diving instead, despite the cold waters of Cape Town and worked his way up to becoming an instructor. After a few years of this, Robbie grew keen to search for warmer water to dive in and accepted a job in Raja Ampat, Indonesia. The travel bug set in, Captain’s ticket in hand and many nautical miles later, there is nothing that Robbie loves more than finding new places to have fun in, both above and under the water.<br /> <br /> Born and raised in the landlocked country of Zimbabwe, Sofia’s love for water originated whilst growing up as a national swimmer and waterpolo player. Working throughout studying within restaurants and catering, it gave her an opportunity to build up experience in hospitality, develop professionalism within the service industry but most of all appreciate different cuisines. After graduating from University of Cape Town, South Africa with a Social Science degree, Sofia realized she wasn’t motivated towards a formal office setting and sought after a career in which she could combine her love of travel with learning new skills. Discovering the world of yachting she has since worked in the Mediterranean, Australia, Indonesia, Florida and the Caribbean. Being able to explore new places and gain a passion for cooking along the way has been a dream realized.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie met in Singapore, soon found common ground of similar roots and have been working together within the industry since then for the last 5 years. Their combined passion for food, travel and most of all the ocean has brought them together to love what they do. They have been lucky enough to get to know some extraordinary, remote locations around the world but also appreciate being able to share time with family and friends in their home country, Zimbabwe.<br /> <br /> As a team, they love being able to entertain, share stories and meet new people to learn theirs. Robbie and Sofie are keen on keeping charters light-hearted while making it a priority to go above and beyond so that their guests always have an adventure to remember.<br /> <br /> Kirsten, a native of South Africa, grew up enjoying the pleasant climate and taking part in various outdoor activities, such as photography, swimming, and showjumping. She excelled in golf and earned several titles and a place on provincial teams before scuba diving captured her imagination during her first dive in the ocean. She attended the University of Johannesburg where her studies in Industrial Design deepened her appreciation of the ocean ecosystem and sparked a passion for developing projects to address ocean conservation. As her interest in photography shifted to the underwater world, she found herself drawn to a non-traditional career and pursued full-time work in diving and sailing. She honed her skills in Tuna fishing and spearfishing while working for a fishing charter company in Cape Town. Today, her love for the ocean and marine life remains one of her greatest passions.<br /> <br /> ROBERT ‘ROBBIE’ SARGENT MARITIME QUALIFICATIONS<br /> <br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Unlimited<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Limited<br /> (Practical & Theory)<br /> • ENG 1 Medical (Valid 2022)<br /> • STCW 95 - Complete Basic Training<br /> • RYA Tender Operator<br /> • RYA Powerboat Level II<br /> • RYA Powerboat Advanced<br /> • RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> • RYA Shore based Day Skipper for Sail Power Craft<br /> • RYA Radar Course<br /> • RYA Diesel Engine Course<br /> • RYA VHF Radio<br /> • SYSA Deckhand Course<br /> <br /> DIVING QUALIFICATIONS<br /> • PADI Speciality Instructor<br /> • EFR First Aid Instructor<br /> • Bauer Compressor Operator<br /> • ScubaPro Level1 Equipment Service Technician<br /> • Aqualung Level 2 Equipment Service Technician<br /> <br /> SOFIA ‘SOFIE’ RIBEIRO QUALIFICATIONS<br /> <br /> • ENG1 (Valid 2022)<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Unlimited<br /> • IYT Master of Yachts (200t) Limited<br /> (Theory & Practical)<br /> • STCW & PDSD<br /> • International Driver’s Licence (Valid 2021)<br /> • PADI Open Water Diver<br /> • Food Safety & Hygiene Level II<br /> • RYA Powerboat Level II<br /> • RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> Ashburton Cookery School-Advanced Course 2023<br /> • Beginner’s Course in Floristry<br /> • Basic Cocktail Masterclass<br /> • Bachelor of Social Science<br /> <br /> KIRSTIN KLOPPERS Maritime Qualifications<br /> <br /> RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore (Sailing) Commercial Endorsement (200GT) <br /> SAS Yachtmaster Coastal<br /> SAMSA SRC/VHF Radio<br /> RYA Personal Watercraft<br /> RYA Powerboat Level II <br /> RYA Competent Crew <br /> Food Safety at Sea Level II <br /> RYA Superyacht Training <br /> ENG1 Medical<br /> STCW 2010<br /> PADI IDC Staff Instructor <br /> PADI Specialty Instructor <br /> International Bartender Course 2023<br /> Wine and Spirit Educational Trust Certificate 2023<br /> Diploma Industrial Design";s:14:"yachtCrewPhoto";s:81:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164brochure44.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew1Pic";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew1.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew2Pic";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew2.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew3Pic";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164crew3.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew4Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew5Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew6Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew7Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew8Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew9Pic";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew10Pic";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew1Name";s:15:"Robbie Sergeant";s:14:"yachtCrew2Name";s:13:"Sofie Ribiero";s:14:"yachtCrew3Name";s:16:"Kirstin Kloppers";s:14:"yachtCrew4Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew5Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew6Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew7Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew8Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew9Name";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew10Name";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew1Title";s:7:"Captain";s:15:"yachtCrew2Title";s:4:"Chef";s:15:"yachtCrew3Title";s:4:"Crew";s:15:"yachtCrew4Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew5Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew6Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew7Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew8Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew9Title";s:0:"";s:16:"yachtCrew10Title";s:0:"";s:9:"yachtFlag";s:2:"US";s:13:"yachtHomePort";s:22:"British Virgin Islands";s:14:"yachtWBasePort";s:22:"British Virgin Islands";s:8:"yachtRig";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtGrossTons";s:0:"";s:12:"yachtAcNight";s:3:"Yes";s:16:"yachtAcSurCharge";s:0:"";s:9:"yachtTubs";s:1:"0";s:20:"yachtLocationDetails";s:0:"";s:10:"yachtTerms";s:15:"Caribbean Terms";s:13:"yachtCaptOnly";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtSpecialCon";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtContracts";s:0:"";s:21:"yachtConsumptionUnits";s:10:"US Gall/Hr";s:10:"yachtRange";s:6:"500 NM";s:11:"yachtPermit";s:1:"1";s:12:"yachtLicense";s:1:"1";s:8:"yachtMca";s:1:"0";s:16:"yachtDeepSeaFish";s:0:"";s:10:"yachtSatTv";s:1:"0";s:9:"yachtIpod";s:0:"";s:10:"yachtVideo";s:0:"";s:17:"yachtSailInstruct";s:3:"Yes";s:13:"yachtInternet";s:12:"Onboard WIFI";s:16:"yachtCaptainOnly";s:0:"";s:16:"yachtBrokerNotes";s:421:" This yacht has full air conditioning and overnight air conditioning is included in the charter rate and available for overnight use if the CHARTERER requests it.<br /> <br /> Crew will take port midship cabin<br /> <br /> <br /> 15% Split Commission with Travel Agents<br /> Gratuity - Crew accept cash, US bank check & Venmo<br /> <br /> Owner Address: 10019 N 57th St<br /> Paradise valley Az<br /> 85253";s:10:"yachtNumGC";i:22;s:13:"yachtGC1Title";s:21:"NYE 2023 BVI Charter ";s:8:"yachtGC1";s:1578:"Robbie, Sofia, and Kirsten <br /> Happy New Year!!! You three are an amazing team that exceeded so many of our expectations for this trip. We cam e as two families but are leaving as a family with 3 new additions ( you guys). Together we started our days off, ate together, played together, explored together, relaxed together, joked and played music together, watched sunrises and sunsets and re-generated our "batteries" so we can head home to work and think about how to get right back to the islands. You each bring so much life, adventure, and top notch service to create a special environment for us. This is certainly a trip we will NEVER forget.

When people have inquired, I’ve simply said “THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME.” <br /> <br /> The boat - wow! Exceeded our expectations. The pictures really don’t do it justice. The room accommodations were more spacious with higher quality fixtures, bedding, lighting, A/C, electricity, storage than expected. Very very nice! The availability of comfy deck seating and water sport toys was awesome. Organization, cleanliness and attention to detail was top notch. <br /> <br /> The crew - not even sure where to begin…. Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make our vacation super special. It was obvious that they had read and digested our preference form, and made sure the food, beverages, schedule were tailored to our party. Story time with Robbie, drink of the day prepped/served by Hannah, and the five-star meals made and served by Sofie were cherished daily delights. We are all seriously missing Sofie - she is a treasure! <br /> <br /> This vacation was simply PERFECT and we are tremendously grateful for you and the crew making it so special.

The two words that keep coming to mind are exceptional and magical!! The three of you made this experience far exceed any hopes and dreams I had coming into this week.

They went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. They were very flexible and listened to our requests and suggestions of things we’d like to do and we’re very accommodating in the itinerary. Sofie’s cooking was outstanding. They both took time to get to know our family and it showed with how well we were taken care of every day. Overall it felt very personalized and very special. An exceptionally memorable vacation. Well done!<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 2 Nov 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie were the most incredible hosts. As a all ladies group we were a little over the top and Robbie did a great job hanging. They both did a wonderful job balancing professionalism, safety, gourmet cuisine, and fun. There were handfuls of moments where they both went above and beyond to make the trip special. Noticing our silly needs even before we knew we had them. Sofie knew when to play the perfect song, add disco lights, and could remember who liked what with their food. They are the BEST first mate and captian we have ever had. Please tell them we genuinely loved every moment and appreciate them endlessly!<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Jun 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sophia were absolutely AMAZING!!! they truly went above and beyond with their services. They were so much FUN and were always keeping us organized. coming back from snorkeling and finding our towels folded, and then keeping our snorkel and dive gear all organized was such a surprise. We love them both dearly, and hope to sail again with them very soon!!!! Was truly our BEST VACATION EVER!!!! Not sure if any other captain and first mate could match their services.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard May 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofia went above our expectations! He helped in every way possible. If we asked for it or he just heard us talking, Robbie made sure our wishes came true. Excellent service by both. Hats off to Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia<br /> <br /> Any superlatives that one can use for the work of Sophia and Robbie are inadequate. They are simply wonderful people that do an amazing job. The sailing was excellent, the food was superb and the interaction with Sophia and Robbie was great. I cannot imagine how they could possibly have done better.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Sofia and Robbie was very professional and attentive to our family. Sophia accommodated the dietary requirements of our youngest daughter with the skills of a five star chef. Robbie commanded the yacht with ease and confidence. His choice of moorings and anchorages were all beautiful locations to enjoy the sunsets and sunrises. The music play list provided by the crew were the best I have experienced<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sophie went above and beyond on this vacation. Sophie really catered to all our dietary needs. Robbie took us to several places and told us stories about each place. Every night they asked how we enjoyed the day and if there was anything that we wanted to do the next day. <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie were an excellent crew. Robbie kept everything interesting, played great music, and was very engaging and fun. Sofie was also very engaging, made excellent meals, and was exceptionally accommodating for some of our special dietary needs. They were both highly professional yet still super friendly, I would gladly sail with them again.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> The service on this trip was phenomenal! Mind you we have never had bad service with Tradewinds but Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make sure we had a great vacation. Their customer service was exceptional. I cannot say enough good things about them. They made sure we had everything we needed at all times so we could relax and enjoy our time in the BVIs. Scuba, snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing, hiking, geocaching. We did it all! <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Captain Robby and first mate, Sophia, were perfect hosts. Their competence and attention to keeping tidy quarters were superb. They each had their own special culinary skills -- Robby was a supreme grill master and Sophie excelled at presentation and taste.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> This was my first (and probably only) catamaran experience, and I was so honored to spend it with Robbie and Sofia on that awesome 60-ft!! They were most attentive and went out of their ways to make sure we had everything we needed and catered, when necessary. I had a bruised ankle and fell and injured that same ankle toward the beginning of the trip. They still catered to my inability to take more dingy trips. They were there to give me more than adequate support (my, they both are so STRONG). The food was awesome, and we expressed our desire (with everyone on our boat) that we'd pay for a recipe book for all that we ate. Sofie prepared it with the love and expertise desired by TradeWinds, and Robbie was a perfect 1st Mate in the kitchen. He was a perfect Captain, while Sofie was the perfect 1st Mate otherwise. They are well-trained and completely socially compatible with each other and all of us. If my husband and I were more water sports enthusiasts and younger, we might have enjoyed it even more. <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 9 Feb 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> The crew: Robbie and Sophie were one of the most dedicated and professional crews we ever had. It is very important to point out that, although crews are, in general, of great excellence, this one exceeded all our expectations. Robbie is a very professional sailor and diving instructor. Sophie a superb chef. Both constitute a very good team. Last but not least, both are very, very, very good people.";s:11:"yachtGC22P1";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtGC22P2";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtGC22P3";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtInsCompany";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtPolicy";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtLiability";s:0:"";s:18:"yachtEffectiveDate";s:0:"";s:17:"yachtContractName";s:28:"C'est La Vie Enterprises LLC";s:20:"yachtContractAddress";s:42:"10019 N 57th St. Paradise Valley, AZ 85253";s:18:"yachtCoverageAreas";s:0:"";s:12:"yachtInsFlag";s:8:"Jamaican";s:16:"yachtInsHomeport";s:11:"Montego Bay";s:11:"yachtRegNum";s:8:"JMP22049";s:14:"yachtConPhone1";s:12:"340-776-7245";s:14:"yachtConPhone2";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtConPhone3";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtConFax";s:0:"";s:17:"yachtWaveConEmail";s:26:"Calendar@chartercaribe.com";s:13:"yachtConOther";s:0:"";s:12:"yachtManager";s:29:"Charter Caribe Clearing House";s:16:"yachtManagerName";s:1:" ";s:17:"yachtManagerPhone";s:12:"340-776-7245";s:16:"yachtManagerToll";s:0:"";s:17:"yachtManagerEmail";s:26:"calendar@chartercaribe.com";}

You three are an amazing team that exceeded so many of our expectations for this trip. We cam e as two families but are leaving as a family with 3 new additions ( you guys). Together we started our days off, ate together, played together, explored together, relaxed together, joked and played music together, watched sunrises and sunsets and re-generated our "batteries" so we can head home to work and think about how to get right back to the islands. You each bring so much life, adventure, and top notch service to create a special environment for us. This is certainly a trip we will NEVER forget. If you are ever in the states near Washington D.C. please look us up... we'd be so happy to treat you to some of what makes our home special. From all the Herrs, thank you so much. god bless, fair winds and calm seas.<br /> -Douglas<br /> <br /> Robbie, Kirsten, and Sofia<br /> Thank you for a wonderful week that exceeded all expectations. We knew we would see many beautiful locations, do some fun snorkeling and paddle boarding and enjoy being pampered, but you three made this trip all that and more. From story time, to the meals, to the drinks and beyond-everything really was spectacular. Add to that our first SCUBA experience and a host of other great opportunities, and it makes us want to do it all over again-right now!<br /> <br /> You are a great team, and we are well aware of how lucky we were to have you. Best of luck in 2024, and we hope to see you again!<br /> -Rob, Katie, and Alex </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-1.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 1' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-1.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-2.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 2' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-2.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-3.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 3' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests24557-3.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> Christmas 2023 BVI Charter</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Robbie, Sophie, and Kirsten, <br /> My oh my, what a wonderful world it is with you on C'est la Vie!

It was hard to "let go" and be catered to but finally relaxed.:) I'm so thankful for your patient help and teaching of Kristen on certifying us to dive. I will forever be thankful you are "The Best." <br /> The meals were amazing and beautiful, thank you Sophia! <br /> Robbie, we always felt safe in your hands and love your humor!! Thank you for a trip of a lifetime! Hopefully we will see you again!!<br /> -Barry and Julie<br /> <br /> To the amazing crew of C'EST LA VIE, <br /> John and I will never forget the experience of your service, professionalism, and love of the water in the BVI. From the moment we stepped foot on this amazing vessel to the very bitter end we were alive! It's truly hard to put it all into words-our memories will last a lifetime!<br /> Love<br /> John and Nicole</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-1.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 22' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-1.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-2.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 23' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-2.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[7164]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-3.jpg?1207826301' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 24' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7164/7164guests21655-3.jpg?1207826301"></a></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> March 2023 BVI Charter</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Dear Robbie, Sofie, and Kirsten, <br /> We can't thank you enough for all you have to make this vacation so special.

When people have inquired, I’ve simply said “THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME.” <br /> <br /> The boat - wow! Exceeded our expectations. The pictures really don’t do it justice. The room accommodations were more spacious with higher quality fixtures, bedding, lighting, A/C, electricity, storage than expected. Very very nice! The availability of comfy deck seating and water sport toys was awesome. Organization, cleanliness and attention to detail was top notch. <br /> <br /> The crew - not even sure where to begin…. Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make our vacation super special. It was obvious that they had read and digested our preference form, and made sure the food, beverages, schedule were tailored to our party. Story time with Robbie, drink of the day prepped/served by Hannah, and the five-star meals made and served by Sofie were cherished daily delights. We are all seriously missing Sofie - she is a treasure! <br /> <br /> This vacation was simply PERFECT and we are tremendously grateful for you and the crew making it so special.

This trip has been something our family has been looking forward to for literally years, but never in my wildest dreams did I think it be anything like it turned out to be. The two words that keep coming to mind are exceptional and magical!! The three of you made this experience far exceed any hopes and dreams I had coming into this week.

They went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. They were very flexible and listened to our requests and suggestions of things we’d like to do and we’re very accommodating in the itinerary. Sofie’s cooking was outstanding. They both took time to get to know our family and it showed with how well we were taken care of every day. Overall it felt very personalized and very special. An exceptionally memorable vacation. Well done!<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 2 Nov 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie were the most incredible hosts. As a all ladies group we were a little over the top and Robbie did a great job hanging. They both did a wonderful job balancing professionalism, safety, gourmet cuisine, and fun. There were handfuls of moments where they both went above and beyond to make the trip special. Noticing our silly needs even before we knew we had them. Sofie knew when to play the perfect song, add disco lights, and could remember who liked what with their food. They are the BEST first mate and captian we have ever had. Please tell them we genuinely loved every moment and appreciate them endlessly!<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Jun 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sophia were absolutely AMAZING!!! they truly went above and beyond with their services. They were so much FUN and were always keeping us organized. coming back from snorkeling and finding our towels folded, and then keeping our snorkel and dive gear all organized was such a surprise. We love them both dearly, and hope to sail again with them very soon!!!! Was truly our BEST VACATION EVER!!!! Not sure if any other captain and first mate could match their services.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard May 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofia went above our expectations! He helped in every way possible. If we asked for it or he just heard us talking, Robbie made sure our wishes came true. Excellent service by both. Hats off to Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia<br /> <br /> Any superlatives that one can use for the work of Sophia and Robbie are inadequate. They are simply wonderful people that do an amazing job. The sailing was excellent, the food was superb and the interaction with Sophia and Robbie was great. I cannot imagine how they could possibly have done better.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Sofia and Robbie was very professional and attentive to our family. Sophia accommodated the dietary requirements of our youngest daughter with the skills of a five star chef. Robbie commanded the yacht with ease and confidence. His choice of moorings and anchorages were all beautiful locations to enjoy the sunsets and sunrises. The music play list provided by the crew were the best I have experienced<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sophie went above and beyond on this vacation. Sophie really catered to all our dietary needs. Robbie took us to several places and told us stories about each place. Every night they asked how we enjoyed the day and if there was anything that we wanted to do the next day. <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Robbie and Sofie were an excellent crew. Robbie kept everything interesting, played great music, and was very engaging and fun. Sofie was also very engaging, made excellent meals, and was exceptionally accommodating for some of our special dietary needs. They were both highly professional yet still super friendly, I would gladly sail with them again.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Apr 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> The service on this trip was phenomenal! Mind you we have never had bad service with Tradewinds but Robbie and Sofie went above and beyond to make sure we had a great vacation. Their customer service was exceptional. I cannot say enough good things about them. They made sure we had everything we needed at all times so we could relax and enjoy our time in the BVIs. Scuba, snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing, hiking, geocaching. We did it all! <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> Captain Robby and first mate, Sophia, were perfect hosts. Their competence and attention to keeping tidy quarters were superb. They each had their own special culinary skills -- Robby was a supreme grill master and Sophie excelled at presentation and taste.<br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard Mar 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> This was my first (and probably only) catamaran experience, and I was so honored to spend it with Robbie and Sofia on that awesome 60-ft!! They were most attentive and went out of their ways to make sure we had everything we needed and catered, when necessary. I had a bruised ankle and fell and injured that same ankle toward the beginning of the trip. They still catered to my inability to take more dingy trips. They were there to give me more than adequate support (my, they both are so STRONG). The food was awesome, and we expressed our desire (with everyone on our boat) that we'd pay for a recipe book for all that we ate. Sofie prepared it with the love and expertise desired by TradeWinds, and Robbie was a perfect 1st Mate in the kitchen. He was a perfect Captain, while Sofie was the perfect 1st Mate otherwise. They are well-trained and completely socially compatible with each other and all of us. If my husband and I were more water sports enthusiasts and younger, we might have enjoyed it even more. <br /> <br /> <br /> Aboard 9 Feb 2019 in BVI with Robbie and Sofia.<br /> <br /> The crew: Robbie and Sophie were one of the most dedicated and professional crews we ever had. It is very important to point out that, although crews are, in general, of great excellence, this one exceeded all our expectations. Robbie is a very professional sailor and diving instructor. Sophie a superb chef. Both constitute a very good team. Last but not least, both are very, very, very good people.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div>
