CHEF
Kylie Parrish
Meet Kylie, a California native with an unbreakable bond with the water and a deep love for culinary arts. Growing up visiting lakes throughout the state, boats became her second home, while her mother's homemade meals kindled a culinary passion. This love for food and exploration led her to Spain during her college years, where she not only absorbed the rich culture but also embarked on her first formal culinary course.
After college, Kylie initially started her career in commercial real estate in NYC but felt the call for change. In 2022, she embraced her Croatian roots and started her yacht chef career in the Mediterranean. This not only satisfied her love for the sea but also allowed her to explore her culinary talents.
Kylie's voyage extended beyond cooking. She transitioned into an instructor role, sharing her culinary wisdom with aspiring chefs, from provisioning to the art of plating. Her galley became a classroom as she taught the intricacies of baking onboard a yacht.
Recently, Kylie enriched her skills through a highly accredited Yacht Chef course. Her journey as a chef remains ever-evolving, driven by her dedication to fresh ingredients, homemade craftsmanship, and an insatiable appetite for learning. With a fusion of global inspiration and culinary artistry, Kylie's culinary journey unfolds with each new creation.

Reviews
What an incredible trip!! Honestly, this last week has been the perfect balance of relaxation, connection and fun activity!
You were both so easy to be around and always looking out for every detail that could make our trip even more enjoyable.
This entire trip absolutely exceeded our expectations on many levels. Kylie - where do we even begin with your INSANE cooking?! The variety & quality & presentations were always over the top.
Will - your knowledge and expertise on the water and boat was super comforting and your knowledge of the BVI's, snorkel spots and unique island experiences we had each day was balanced to perfection!
We cannot thank you enough for the most memorable trip!!
Will - thank you for offering up every activity and excursion the BVI's has to offer. You gave us the confidence to adventure and try new things. Thank you both for making every moment of this trip a blast, joining in our silly goosed-ness, and keeping us smiling from ear to ear. We will most assuredly be telling stories about our time with you forever. You rock, never change. Send our love to ginger (and her island). Cheers!
Tracy's culinary skills were exceptional, catering to all of our dietary needs. Tracy was always there with a drink, snack, and an unbelievable spread for each meal - not to mention the beautiful tablescape! Jon insured we always arrived to each cove safely, and we had so much fun on the water!
The yacht was over the top - Jon and Tracy were always calm and so knowledgeable about everything - we love you Tracy and Jon - we cannot wait to come back!!
Every single meal was over the top delicious. Every meal was made from scratch and all fresh ingredients. All personal preferences were followed to a "T".
The Windward was in stellar condition!
There are eight of us on board every single one of our wants and needs were meet immediately!
Jon and Tracy were very laid back and read the room well- when to let us have family time or to join in with discussions and activities. I had the trip planned for the most part but they helped bring it all together. Extremely nice, informative and glad we got to spend 5 days with them!! Tracy and Jon actually came recommended to me from a friend that booked with them last summer. We loved the crew. The yacht was very clean, comfortable and well ventilated.
The six of us have discussed this trip and would not have changed a thing!!! One of the best family trips ever!! My husband and I, summer 22 years old with boyfriend and Savanna and her husband are 26.
Best,
The Ferrell Family
Jon and Tracy were extremely attentive to our group throughout. For professional, absolutely first class service. We had previously taken a trip on a 67' cat, but this 54' Bali had an amazing, modern layout that felt equally as spacious and was meticulously maintained. The meals, whether breakfast, lunch, or dinner were like dining at a first class restaurant. During the 7 night trip, we had 7 distinct BVI stops that will all provide their own unique memories.
For anyone considering a BVI sail cat, we highly recommend Jon & Tracy and the Windward boat. We would absolutely consider booking this combination again A+ experience!!!
Thank you so much for giving us the most memorable week! We look forward to doing this again with y'all!
-Madison & Jenny
You two are incredible! Thanks for making our family trip great!!
Hugs!
Kristi and Chad
Hope to see you next year!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. From the moment we stepped on the boat, you outdid yourselves. We all came in not sure what to expect. Some of us thought we would be getting turkey, or even PB&J sandwiches for lunch. Each and every meal blew us away! We were saddend that we planned to go off the boat at all to eat. And while your suggestions on those places were wonderful, the meals and services (especially Jon's A+ dish washing that he so enjoys) never were as good as on the boat. Tracy was amazing in knowing and anticipating our needs and accommodating gluten sensitivity. Jon was an amazing, calm captain who happily entertained our guys's 1000 million questions. This trip far exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to come back, but only if you will be our crew because we know anyone else would be disappointing. And don't worry, next time, we'll plan multiple speedo days and make sure to pre-order ours with faces on them for you too! Oh and thanks for putting up with Leroy. Cheers to next time!

Love your friends from Cincinnati and Nashville
Jon & Tracy, you made this a truly special memory for those of us who have done this a few times as well as the BVI virgins! The meals were incredible... far better than some of our favorite restaurants back home. And the effort to find the best spots in the BVI is seriously appreciated!
We had a lot of fun planning this adventure, and more than exceeded or ambitions. Thanks again for the great drinks, special experiences and lifelong memories!
Come see us in Dallas sometime soon!

Thanks for everything!

Captains are a dime in a dozen… but chefs(like Tracy) are irreplaceable. Thank you from the bottom of our Indiana hearts for an amazing week sailing. You went above and beyond to make each day and each meal something we will never forget.
We appreciate all the adventures, answered questions, laughs, drinks, and memories. You two are sincerely something so so special.
We hope to be back. No stress, No shoes, No shirt, No problem!

We had an amazing vacation in the BVI on Oceana from the moment we entered the boat and were greeted by our strikingly good looking crew, Jon and Tracy. Jon and Tracy beautifully decorated the boat with striking, elegant coastal decor! Every detail is accounted for with the very best equipment and decor.
Jon is an impressive captain! We felt safe with his skilled competence and confidence! Impressive how knowledgeable he is! He also strives to create the ultimate experience for his guests.
Tracy is a 5 star chef! Every meal was a work of art and delicious! Tracy's calm, patient style made our vacation an exceptional experience! We especially appreciated their taking us to the very best places in the BVI! We didn't have to think about anything! The ultimate vacation! Thanks Jon and Tracy!

Tracy's skills in the kitchen were awesome. So much talent and every meal was so tasty! Thank you Jon and Tracy for the most wonderful week aboard Oceana. Hopefully we will see you again.
Safe sailing and good health to both of you.
-Lee and Jake
Tracy and Jon, thank you for creating an easy going and relaxing experience. From the sailing to the water sports, to the beyond delicious meals, to chilling with a glass of wine or other "beverage" ;) it was all incredible!
Bet of luck with your future charters and once again - an open invite if you are ever in Boston!
-Suzy
Tracy's meals were out of this world. Each day, morning, noon, and night. We didn't want for anything. She always had a smile. Jon, what can you say, but he made sailing a pleasure. His knowledge and experience was evident in how he managed the boat. They are a great team and we enjoyed their company on and off the boat.
In summary, Oceana and Tracy and Jon. Great! Great! Great!
