MEET YOUR CREW:
Andrew and Renata are excited to be aboard Libra, and exploring the Virgin Islands, following their last charter season in The Bahamas, where together they delivered exceptional guest experiences. Andrew’s playful and positive nature, combined with his passion for all things boating, watersports and even a splash of cocktail making, perfectly compliment Renata’s hosting skills, attention to detail and passion for all things food. They are both about as environmentally conscious as it gets, and enjoy looking for new ways to deliver charters as sustainably as possible.
From Johannesburg, South Africa, Andrew isn’t your normal city suburbanite. Andrew is sporty and adventurous, hence the reason he came across sailing. He has been sailing since 2012, where he first sailed across the Indian Ocean. From the beginning Andrew was hooked, deciding he would become a Captain one day.
Andrew completed his Yachtmasters in the icy cold, stormy waters of Cape Town while at the same time studying a postgraduate degree in business. Thereafter, he furthered his experience as a first mate for a year in Malaysia and Indonesia. Not long after, Andrew captained his first yacht in Thailand, after which he also chartered an array of sailing yachts in Croatia.
Andrew, a water sports enthusiast, is an experienced diver, spear-fisher, wake-boarder and surfer. Besides being an active soul, Andrew is a jack of all trades and you’ll find his down-to-earth nature magnetic – join him for a Captain’s Cocktail under a beautiful Caribbean sunset while Renata cooks up some local delicacies.
Renata, born and raised in coastal northern New Zealand, has always been close to nature and the water. Seeing her mother’s passion for food and garden-to-table cooking from a young age, she experienced the joy that surrounds a beautifully prepared family meal.
Moving to Europe in her mid-twenties, Renata spent time living in London and Amsterdam, relishing the chance to travel, taste and cook during holidays from her corporate job. It was in Europe that she fell in love with sailing, and decided to take the leap to combine her passions of cooking and being on the water. She completed her Day Skipper certification, and after formalizing her culinary skills, began hosting charters in Croatia and Greece. Following a busy summer in the Mediterranean, she realized her dream of crossing the Atlantic Ocean by sail, managing the provisioning and cooking for the nine people onboard.
Renata’s favorite dishes include a mix of Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Asian, all influenced by the classic New Zealand cuisine she grew up with. In saying that, she is always excited to discover new flavors, spices and cooking styles, and loves to try new things. She enjoys exploring local food markets to find new and exotic ingredients, and looks forward to sharing these discoveries with you in the Virgin Islands.
Andrew and Renata can’t wait to welcome you aboard Libra to experience the beautiful Virgin Islands, and to create memories of a lifetime!
Captain Andrew and Chef Renata are both fully vaccinated

Lida's Culinary skills are 5 stars!
The Libra is impeccably clean and kept top notch.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU
Your genuine enjoyment of having us here made us have such a better appreciation of the sea. Every detail on this trip has been incredible from the table settings to delicious meals to knowing all of the best coves on the island - it is hard to imagine what this trip would have looked like without you.
We hope to be here with you again sometime very soon.
Baie dankie
Everything from the food, to the watersports, to the snorkel spots, to the cocktails and cappuccinos was just perfect!
I think after this week, we can all say that "Boat Life Is The Best Life".
Thank you for everything you did to make this a trip of a lifetime for us and one we will never forget.
Lida, the food was outstanding - everything from the cocktails to the meals and snacks were delicious.

Thank you both for an incredible experience - we'll surely be back.

Your kindness and hospitality truly made this special place blossom. The adventures (especially turtle and eagle ray sightings) were moments of pure joy and happiness.
We so enjoyed getting to know you both. Cheers to new friends near and far - we can't wait to explore with you both again one day soon!
What a wonderful week we had and so much is due to your amazing hospitality and hard work. From the beautiful bays and beaches to the wonderful food, we will remember this trip for years to come. My personal favourite was Little Lamshur Bay - simply gorgeous!
I could never get David to the USVI but I think he has been converted and is now a big fan.
Your hospitality, captivating personalities and your positive energy are amazing! Never stop being YOU.
We loved hearing the passion in your stories of South Africa and hope to get there some day to see if ourselves.
Be it the cappuccinos, delicious meals, PAIN KILLERS, games played after dinner or just life on Libra, you made it special for me and my dear family. Many memories were made!
The way both of you love your job and love people is so evident. No bad day aboard Libra!
I cant say thank you enough!
It was awesome starting mornings with fresh coffee and cappuccino. The food was fresh and amazing.
We were the envy of every other boat thanks to the "reverse cabungee" and incredible water sports experiences.
I also appreciated the depth of the conversations and personal connections.
It's almost as if you could read our minds and anticipate our every desire in advance.
Thank you both for making such a memorable holiday for us.
I am excited to leave this trip with two new friends in y'all and cannot wait to see y'all again - there WILL be an "again".
Y'all are the hardest workers I have ever met and truly have a passion for people, service and your jobs. Keep on!
Thank you for making this one of the most memorable holidays to date. We cannot wait to see you two again.
A wonderful experience to refuel our spirits with nature and our connection with our family.
may God bless you and continue to give you the joy and strength to continue giving your guests so much joy and peace.
Lida, your cooking is delicious and proves that Peyton actually will eat ! :) Thank you for sharing your recipes - we will let you know how we do.
Chris, we love your energy. Not only do you have every fun sea toy available at a seconds notice but you do it with such a happy, fun-living vibe. We have never seen someone take such meticulous care of water toys)
We will truly miss the both of you the most from this trip. We will also miss our morning cappucchino's and endless cocktails.
It was a "pleasure" meeting you guys.
Indeed, we had a wonderful time with your very professional crew, Chris and Lida. Chris, is at the top of his game and most certainly the best skipper that I have had the pleasure of meeting.
