Meet Captain Ryan, a seasoned mariner (RYA Yachtmaster Offshore) , born and raised in Southern Africa, where his love for the ocean was nurtured from a young age. Growing up, he spent his mornings catching lobster and riding the waves as a surfer and kitesurfer before heading to school. After completing his Yachtmaster Ocean certification, he set sail on an epic journey through the Indian Ocean, exploring the vibrant coastlines of Madagascar, Mozambique, Seychelles, and Mauritius. He then established himself as a respected charter captain in the Mediterranean, sharing his expertise and stories with guests from around the world.
In 2021, Captain Ryan made the Virgin Islands his new home, drawn by the crystal-clear waters and warm Caribbean hospitality. With over 100 charters under his belt, spanning an impressive 40,000+ miles sailed, he's now eager to share his passion for the ocean with you on Mahasattva ensuring an unforgettable adventure that exceeds your expectations.
Chef Glen is a South African culinary artist with a decade of experience in the hospitality industry. Originally a mixologist and restaurant manager, his passion for flavor led him to pursue formal training at the Super Yacht Culinary Academy.
In 2024, Chef Glen further honed his skills at the École Ducasse Paris Campus, a world-renowned institution. This prestigious culinary school equipped him with advanced techniques and a deeper understanding of global cuisine.
Known for his fresh, light, and locally-inspired dishes, Chef Glen believes in bringing a sense of place to every meal. However, his culinary repertoire extends far beyond regional fare. He enjoys the challenge of creating diverse menus and loves the personal touch of working on a yacht.
Jessica grew up on the wild and beautiful Vancouver Island in Canada, where her love for nature and the ocean was fostered through hiking adventures and endless hours spent in the water. After years in the service industry and a life-changing solo trip to Central America, she discovered diving and committed herself to exploring the ocean, community work, and environmental care.
For the past six years, Jessica has worked as a dive instructor in the Caribbean and Mexico, with the last two years in the British Virgin Islands, earning her Elite 100 status from PADI in 2023.
During her time in Mexico , she worked as a hostess on the diving live-aboard Belle Amie, where she provided exceptional service to guests while managing all aspects of interior duties, assisting with diving operations, and ensuring safety on trips to the Revillagigedo Archipelago. In 2024, she joined the yachting industry, completing an Atlantic crossing on a 62ft Sunreef from the BVI to Naples, Italy. She led the team in provisioning and made significant contributions to cooking, cleaning, and watch duties during the 34-day, 4000 NM journey, which solidified her desire to work on sailboats. With over 2000 dives ranging from Caribbean reefs to deep Pacific dives with sharks and oceanic manta rays, Jessica is passionate about curating personalized, memorable experiences and is dedicated to sharing the beauty of the Caribbean islands, both above and below the water.

Reviews
Captain Ryan, Jess and Glen made the trip with their hospitality.
Glen’s culinary skills were out of this world, better than a 5 star restaurant.
We will definitely be back for another spin around the BVI’s!
Thank you for everything, let us know if you ever come to NC.

New Year’s 2024/2025
************************************************************************
How did you enjoy your cruising vacation?
We loved our time on the yacht and in the BVIs generally. As you know, one family on
our trip had chartered a sailboat before. The returning family loved it even more than last
time, and the new family fell in love with the style of vacation as well. Some of us were
literally in tears when they dropped us off at the ferry dock at the end.
How would you describe your Captain and crew? Were they Courteous? Helpful?
Friendly? Attentive? Knowledgeable?
The crew was absolutely incredible. We could not have asked for a better one! The
captain, Ryan, was extremely competent and excellent at his job, but was also kind and
friendly, and always willing to help out with anything else to be done, including setting
up water sports and helping with dives. The chef, Glen, was incredibly talented and
always looking for opinions and feedback, and also a genuinely friendly and fun person.
And the stewardess, Jess, was perfect at her job. She was warm and welcoming and
always available for anything you needed, but also a very competent and professional
dive instructor.
Tell me about your meals? Did the menus meet your expectations? Did your Chef and
Crew pay close attention to your Preference Sheets?
The meals were fantastic. The food for every single meal was elevated and delicious, but
also accessible and enjoyable across all age groups and tastes. Glen is a true talent and
cares deeply about his craft. He followed our requests from the preference sheets
perfectly, and also asked additional questions about preferences before meals. He wanted
honest feedback after meals in case there was any way to improve- which there was not!
He made a sweet and huge pancake breakfast for my daughter’s birthday (her favorite) -
which was the last meal we had on the boat.
The cocktails and wine pairings done by Jess were also very delicious, and followed our
requests on the preference sheets- but also had some fun and creative island-style options
for us to try as well.
How is the yacht? Is she clean and well-maintained? Were your cabins comfortable?
Were the outdoor spaces adequate for lounging? Was there enough shade?
The yacht was gorgeous and beautifully and lovingly maintained. It was spotless in and
out at all times. Cabins were comfortable with nice storage and the outdoor spaces were
plentiful and enjoyable with lots of relaxing cushions all about. There was both plenty of
sun and shade for all preferences. The table for meals was comfortable and always
beautifully set with very nice flatware, silverware and glassware. The layout with the
kitchen down below gave lots of extra room up top. We rarely used the indoor living
room because it was so nice outside- but was nice to have for a few movie nights.
What did you like most about the yacht? What did you like the least? What would have
made you more comfortable or satisfied?
We liked the crew, the layout of the yacht, and food the best. We liked leaving the yacht
the least! And we would have been happier with one more week! :
How did you find the pace and the itinerary of your vacation?
The pace and itinerary were fantastic. The captain and crew paid great attention to our
preference sheets and planned out a great time for all. They fit in our 4 requested dives
without ever making it seem rushed and including plenty of activities for the non-divers.
They also planned 2 dinners off boat and 1 lunch and we loved those as well. Watching
the Necker Island fireworks and drone show was super fun for all.
Would you charter this yacht again? If not, please explain:
Yes. Especially if it was the same crew - or even some of them.
What can Yates Yachts do to improve our services?
I can’t think of anything. You gave us great options from the start, listened to what we
needed and wanted in a vacation, and helped us all along the way with helpful reminders
to keep us on track with deadlines. And also helped a great deal with insurance questions.
I also feel that if we had run into any problems or issues, you would have been able to
help.
But the crew is what really made the trip special. Captain Ryan always had everything covered - but somehow found a way to be warm and friendly while also being the consummate professional.
Chef Glenn consistently delivered meals fit for a Michelin-starred restaurant, but with the casual accessibility you need on a Caribbean vacation.
And Divemaster/Stewardess Jess was just a joy to be around, whether it was guiding us through 4 awesome dives, or mixing drinks, she had everything covered with a smile and kindness.
If you have ever thought a charter like this is for you - look no further than this team.
Will B.
Absolutely wonderful experience on the Mahasattva.
Ryan, Glen, and Jess provided memories that will last a lifetime.
Luke B.
No matter where you may go, five stars is an understatement with this crew.
Cole B
Our crew was amazing and truly made this an unforgettable vacation!!!!
Jill B.
The ingredients, the pairings, the presentation, and the portions were perfect. It was a feast for my palette with all of the different combinations of foods. Glen, you presented them with such passion and love. Congratulations on your culinary win - a well-deserved honor.
Ryan, I am so glad that you joined us at the lunch table. It was nice to get to know you better, and I am sure that your ease with people makes you a great captain. We enjoyed your constant smiles as we traipsed past Maha as we were back and forth on the dock.
Jessica, the service was great, and the table was lovely. All of you seem to have a nice connection with each other which is such a treat for guests.
I am delighted that I am about to book a multi-repeat client with you in May. He has had amazing crews in the past, but I am certain that you'll be at the top of his list.
Thanks again, and merry, merry.
Captain Ryan, you have been SUPER nice and really funny for the entire trip and even if Milo or I was bothering you with the e-foil, or asking if the "pool" was open, you kept your patience with us and you were an amazing captain.
Glen, your food was the best that I have ever had and you were still able to be nice and funny even if you were still really busy with cooking for 8 people all by yourself.
Jess, you have been absolutely amazing for every second we have been on Mahasattva. Whether it was taking us scuba diving, making us painkillers or just being amazing in general, you di all of this with perfection.
Our trip on Mahasattva would have been nothing without you guys and I hope we can come back and do the same thing all over again.
Thank you so much.
You are absolutely INCREDIBLE human beings! We felt so safe, so well cared for, so full of joy onboard the beautiful Mahasattva! We cannot thank you enough for this once in a lifetime experience.
You created unreal, magical experiences for us and for our children. Fishing, e-foiling, scuba diving, exploring the baths, the caves and beaches. This trip has surpassed our wildest imagination and we TRULY cannot thank you enough.
we will see you again! And it better be soon :)
Ryan, your steady hand and calm presence at the helm gave us both confidence and serenity at sea....and your patience with our kids and their energy level meant the world to us and them!
Glen, every meal was a masterpiece. We will forever rave about the flavors and creativity you brought to the table.
Jess, your kindness, attention to detail, love of teaching and joyful energy made every moment feel special.
this trip has given us memories we'll cherish forever and we can't wait to set sail with you all again. Mahasattva and her incredible crew will always hold a special place in our hearts.
WOW… our Captain “Ryan”, Chef “Glenn” and Steward “Jess” knock it out of the park for ALL of us !!!
We have done many sailing trips but this was by far THE BEST EVER!!!
Ryan was so very knowledgeable about our Catamaran… he could answer ALL the questions we asked him…
Chef Glenn… OMG.. BEST meals ever!!
He has amazing talent !!! There was not one meal that we did not enjoy!!!
Oh…. and the Galley, was always so organized when we peeked in un-announced ..😂
Jess… what a sweet, sweet young woman!!
She was always on the go making sure we were all comfortable, satisfied and had everything we needed.
She was a busy bee the entire trip! Table was always decorated perfectly!!!
Can you imagine trying to make 8 people drinks when we all liked something different 😂😂😂,
she handled it perfectly!!!
All 3 of them went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and then some!!!
That is the kind of Crew Members you need !!
We will definitely be planning another trip and will “hopefully” get to have this same crew!!!
I just wanted to let your company know that these 3 are what made our trip complete!!!
We love them so much, we are sending each of them a care package for Christmas 🎄❤️

PLEASE ADD ANY OTHER COMMENTS TO LET US KNOW HOW WE CAN IMPROVE: Sailing in the BVI is the best vacation anyone could take. We highly recommend it. You will continue to do it year after year. This was our 3rd trip and best yet.
We really appreciated the amazing service throughout the whole trip. Glen made the best desserts and food, especially the grilled cheese - lol! Riley, thank you for taking us tubing and on hikes, and showing us the "secret sweet stash"
We will never forget the lifelong memories we created with you guys. You guys did a great job running the ship with only two people. We're praying for Airiana to continue to get better!
We will never forget it!
I don't even know where to begin
From the food to the hospitality
From the watersports to just cruisin'
This was the best trip!
Over to the crew Riley, ultra professional throughout. Nothing was too much trouble. Every day he would ask if we were okay. Nothing was too much trouble, a supurb captain and I can't think of anyone more suited for this role.
Next up Glen, Every night we gave him applause for his incredible dishes served daily. We ate out a few times and none came anywhere close to his food perfection. it didn't take him too long to accept our British humour.
Finally, we have Ariana, a tough job with 6 guys, but her feisty character fitted in perfectly with us. Like a sister and daughter she mixed in with games, excursions and other activities, one of the guys, and we wouldn't have her any other way.
We were 2 families that came together as one, thanks to this wonderful experience, this team made this happen for us and we will be eternally grateful and we hope to reunite in the future on the Mahasattva, as one big family.
The drunken pirates of Willy T's didn't stand a chance against drunken moms of the Soggy Dollar Bar.
We'll wake up in San Francisco dreaming of balsamic pearls and yogurt pancakes.
Shoutout to dive master extraordinaire Airiana - some of the best dives we've ever done!
Thank you Riley, Glen and Airiana. You made us feel welcomed, safe and cared for every minute of every day. This was truly one of the most unforgettable vacations we've ever had! We hope to see you again next year!
We will never forget it and hope to join you soon.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
thank you fro your impeccable attention to every detail to make us feel incredibly taken care of. This trip has made an impression on all of us and it wouldn't have been the same without your professionalism and fun attitudes.
Thanks for an amazing trip!
What an awesome yacht!!
The adventures off the boat were amazing but not equal to the amazing meals. We enjoyed each meal time!!
We were catamaran newbies and are leaving now the biggest fans of all!!
This was far too short of a trip and we will for sure be back and be back for longer! Can't thank you enough for showing us the most special places and also putting your special touches on every moment.
Ariana - our scuba trip!
Riley - hiking with the rest of us and dinghying us everywhere!
Glen - spoiling us with all the spectacular meals and stairstep conversations.
We are celebrating this trip as a BIG moment for our family and will never forget the memories we made with our children here on Maha.
We are grateful and hope our paths cross again.
Thank you SO much for showing them a wonderful time aboard and taking such great care of them!
We are so pleased to have had such a great charter with you and hope to continue working together in the future.
Thanks again
To Our Captain Extraordinaire - RILEY
To Our Lady Of The Sea - AIRIANA
To Our Maitre Cuisnier - GLEN
This is our love letter to you.... so much love and gratitude for each one of you and the role you played on this trip of a lifetime! The memories are locked in and will surely not fade away. Peace be with you always and forever and may our paths cross again along the way!
Captain Riley, Chef Glen and Chief Fun and energy Airiana took the experience to another level. Riley made us all feel relaxed with his professional control of the boat at all times, plus the constant running us around on the dinghy.
Glen's cooking skills were amazing and he constantly out did himself.
Airiana brought energy to everything we did and had a wonderful way of making us all feel comfortable at all times.
We will be back!! But first my liver needs to recover :)
Max - ( the dog) wants you to have his red bowtie to remember him by.
Helen- Your Dishes are legendary! We will dream of the meals you served us. Your personality is real star power.
Riley- Your leadership was the perfect definition of CAPTAIN! Fearless, brave, our great friend. You are an inspiration and one of the most interesting and cool persons I have met in a long time. Your patience and kindness is unmatched by anyone I have ever known and whatever path you take you will be successful.
Flo - your grace and strength and beauty inspired us and taught us how much we could do. Love you! Thank you for being a fabulous teacher and getting me back in the water. Every time I go scuba diving I will think of you- Smiles and Bubbles!
Beth, Nicholas and Jake
Thank you is not enough. You all exceeded expectations! This was unforgettable. Flo- the drinks were amazing. Your kindness and sweet spirit made us feel right at Home. Riley you are a Captain among Captains. Your leadership skills and ability to solve problems are exemplary. Helen, Helen, Helen- Your food was Michelin star worthy.

Rest of the crew: 5/5
Comments:
Jayde - our chef, was phenomenal in every aspect - the food looked beautiful and was some of the best we ever tasted (especially the crab cakes). She is a beautiful person inside and out.
Ian - our first mate, was terrific - he ensured everything was perfect and all of our needs were met, from morning coffee to happy hour drinks and evening wine.
The crew was perfection at its finest!
How would you qualify the yacht (comfort, features, general maintenance, etc): 5/5

Beautiful and comfortable - no reason to spend time in the cabin as there was plenty of room on the boat where you could enjoy time with family and friends or be by yourself to read a book or self reflect.
How would you qualify the itinerary: 5/5
Comments:
For the first time in our lives, we wanted no agenda - and that is what we had - no agenda/itinerary; we sailed when we were done swimming and kayaking, we ate when we were hungry - we never really knew what time it was unless we smelled the wonderful aromas from the kitchen! - PERFECT!

Beyond expectations!!! We are all "foodies" and we still agreed some of the best food we have ever had. Drinks/cocktails were made to order and PERFECT!

One of if not the best vacation ever!
Our crew was very knowledgeable and disciplined so we felt safe and well taken care of. This catamaran and crew is no question a 5 star! We will be back and wouldn't use any other boat or crew!
Thank you and God bless!
