Captain: Hazel Ochoa
Born in the vibrant city of Medellin, Colombia, Hazel’s life took a tropical twist when his family moved to the serene coastal town of Capurgana. With the Caribbean waves lapping at his doorstep, Hazel’s love for the ocean grew as he freedived, spearfished, and hung out with local fishermen like it was his job—which, eventually, it became!
Hazel dabbled in statistics at university, but when life threw a curveball, he returned to his seaside roots, ready to chart a new course—this time on the ocean itself. Local day charters became his launchpad, and after saving every penny he made, he jumped aboard a passing sailboat, leaving Colombia behind for Panama and the wide, wide world.
Panama offered Hazel his first taste of professional yachting, from boatyard grunt work to deckhand and chef duties. Soon enough, he earned his 200T Captain’s license in Panama—right before COVID hit. When the world paused, Hazel didn’t: instead, he joined Sea Shepherd, where he protected marine life, did scientific research, and learned to fix anything that needed fixing on a boat.
After three action-packed years of eco-adventures, Hazel returned to the Caribbean, diving into the charter world and fine-tuning his skills as a captain. And then, destiny called—he met Chef Yah Yah. The two bonded over their meticulous nature and passion for hard work. Soon, they were not only crewmates but travel buddies, visiting 12 countries in pursuit of their Yacht Master and Dive Master certifications. Now, they’re a dynamic duo on the high seas, living their ocean dream!
Hailing from a self-sustaining farm in the breathtaking Cape Town region of South Africa, Chef Yah Yah didn’t just learn how to cook—she was practically born with a wooden spoon in her hand! Under the watchful eye of her nanny, Yah Yah mastered the kitchen, making everything from cheese to preserves, pickles to baked goods. By age six, she was selling her creations at the local farmers market like a pro.
With a family farm bordering the ocean, Yah Yah’s culinary passions expanded beyond the kitchen. Days were spent foraging for seafood along the coast and cooking her fresh catch over a beachside fire—a true farm-to-table experience! Her natural talent and love for crafting meals from scratch make her a force in the kitchen, while her adventurous spirit matches the thrill of life on the water.
From her humble beginnings to traveling the world with Captain Hazel, Yah Yah is always up for a challenge. Together, they’ve set sail on new horizons, ready to welcome guests aboard with mouthwatering dishes and unforgettable stories. Whether it’s a perfectly seared catch of the day or homemade pastries, Chef Yah Yah ensures every meal is an adventure of its own!

Reviews
Thank you both for such an amazing sailing adventure through the BVI’s. Your hospitality, professionalism, and attention to every detail made this trip truly unforgettable.
The food was outstanding, the snorkeling incredible, and every destination seemed more beautiful than the last. Sandy Spit was my personal favorite — a picture-perfect paradise that I’ll never forget.
I also want to thank you for making my 60th birthday celebration so special. The birthday cake was delicious. Your thought and effort meant a great deal to me.
Thanks for creating such a fun, relaxing, and memorable experience. We will cherish these memories from this trip for years to come and hope to sail with you both again someday.
May God bless you both, and we pray that all your hopes and dreams come true.
If you ever come our way, please come see us or plan a trip to visit. We will let you sleep in and serve you Hazel O’s.
Much love,
- Paula & Danny
Hazel & Yah Yah
I don’t know where to begin. Yes — the food, stops and hospitality were superb. However, your true spirit and generous time with us made this trip the BEST I have ever had.
Thank you just isn’t enough (Hazel — the G.O.A.T.!)
May all your dreams come true.
God Bless,
- Christy and Jimmy
Hazel and Yah Yah,
Thank you both for an amazing trip. You both were so nice to help me feel so comfortable on the boat.
I wish you both the best in life. The food and company was wonderful. You both did everything to make me feel safe getting on and off that dinghy. Everything was beautiful and top notch!
Love,
- Kelly & Jeff

Many thanks,

Hazel & Yah Yah,
You are such a sweet couple and truly skilled at what you do!! You made this trip everything and more than we ever expected. ScubaDoo is so comfortable, and the food was beyond amazing.
Every mooring spot was perfection, the dives amazing, the cocktails so delicious!!
Hazel, your sense of humor was so subtle — I had fun watching the kids try to figure it out.
We got to do everything on our wish list and more, and it never felt rushed. This is the most relaxing, beautiful, pampered trip I’ve ever taken!
Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of us all. And thank you for having the scooter — it made snorkeling possible for me, and that’s one of my most favorite things to do.
Many thanks!!
— Ann Marie
We are grateful for Hazel & Yah-Yah, sunsets, snorkeling, hiking, E-foil, floating, and most especially the FOOD!! It was ahhh-mazing.
Thank you for a wonderful memory-making vacation for our family.
God bless you always!
Stacy & David Copeland
P.S. Bless your heart!!
Hazel, your ability to captain the boat was fun to observe. You are also great with coordinating & teaching all the water activities, diving, water toys, etc.
Yah Yah, your gift and talents as a chef are unmatched. Your food was simply amazing… every meal!
You are now family to us. I pray God’s protection & favor over you. I pray that prosperity will bless you.
Bryan & Terri
As a business owner in the hospitality industry, let me just say that Hazel and Yaya are an invaluable asset to work with. I will cherish this experience for the rest of my life. If I were in your shoes and guiding folks to pick their boat, there isn't anything that Hazel and Yaya are not capable of. They are literally perfection. I wrote a review, but wanted to share it with you here as well, because it was so hard to come up with the right things to say, because so many moments were unexplainable, but I hope this did it justice:
There are vacations… and then there are experiences that completely change you as a person. What we experienced with Hazel and Yaya was not simply a charter, a getaway, or even a luxury trip. It was one of the most meaningful and unforgettable experiences of our lives, and I truly believe a piece of our hearts will always remain on that boat with them.
From the moment we stepped onboard, Hazel had this incredible presence about him. Calm, confident, genuine, thoughtful—someone who instantly makes you feel safe, taken care of, and completely at ease. What amazed us most about Hazel was how effortlessly he made every single day feel perfectly tailored to us. He somehow knew exactly when we wanted adventure, when we wanted to relax, when we wanted to explore, when we wanted quiet moments together, and when we wanted to laugh until our stomachs hurt. Exploring the islands with Hazel leading the way felt like seeing the world through the eyes of someone who truly loves what he does. Every route, every stop, every experience felt intentional. He didn’t just captain a yacht—Hazel created memories that will stay with us forever.
And then there is Yaya...
I genuinely don’t know if words can do Yaya justice.
I can say, without a single ounce of exaggeration, that Yaya prepared the best food I have ever had in my entire life. Not “best food on a boat.” Not “best vacation food.” The best food... period. Breakfast, lunch, dinner—every single meal somehow topped the last. We would finish a meal and think, there’s no way it gets better than this... and then somehow Yaya would do it again.
But what made Yaya so special wasn’t just her talent in the kitchen—it was the love behind everything she created. You could feel it in every bite. Every plate felt thoughtful, personal, beautiful, and unforgettable. She completely changed how I think about food. She reminded me that food is not just something you eat—it’s something that brings people together, creates emotion, and tells a story. And Yaya told one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever experienced.
The yacht itself was absolutely incredible. There were five of us—my mother, my mother-in-law, my husband, my best friend, and myself—and somehow it felt like we had endless space. Everyone had room to relax, recharge, connect, and have their own moments while still sharing this unbelievable experience together.
But if I’m being honest... the yacht, the islands, the views, the luxury—all of that was only part of what made this so extraordinary.
The real magic was Hazel and Yaya.
Somewhere during this trip, they stopped feeling like crew and started feeling like family. Saying goodbye to Hazel and Yaya at the end was genuinely emotional. There were tears. There were hugs. And there was this overwhelming feeling that something incredibly special had just happened to all of us.
There is truly no dollar amount in this world that can buy the kind of memories, connection, growth, and perspective that Hazel and Yaya gave our family. This wasn’t just a vacation. This was life changing.
This trip changed how I see the world. It changed how I value time with the people I love. It changed how I think about food, adventure, and being present in the moment.
And the hardest part of all... was leaving Hazel and Yaya.
We are all heartbroken that it’s over, but one thing is certain...
We will be back for Hazel and Yaya. And until then, we’ll be talking about this experience for the rest of our lives.

Dear Hazel & Yah Yah,
Thank you so much for the most amazing week in the BVI’s. Our family had the BEST time! We would love to host you if you ever come to New Orleans!
The food was amazing!! We can’t wait to buy your cookbook — we will still lick the plates. Thank you so much for carefully curating our itinerary and getting us to all the best spots!!
Being on ScubaDoo was the perfect way to usher in the New Year. I can’t wait to see what 2026 has in store for us if this is how it starts.
Hazel was so patient with us while scuba diving and so kind to pull everyone in on the dinghy.
We so appreciate your amazing hospitality and all your kindness
Lots of love,
Julie, Lance, Jake, Caitlin & Charlotte
You guys made this ship feel like home, and I couldn’t have imagined a better crew!! Y’all are the best bartenders, DJs, divemasters, guides, and multitaskers.

Yah Yah,
Huge thanks for an unforgettable week on ScubaDoo! We’re still drooling about the insanely creative and delicious dishes, as well as those next-level tablescapes (seriously Hazel, how did you do it?!).
The food wasn’t just meals — it was part of the adventure. Extra thanks for listening to all of Dad’s stories to keep him entertained… and all of us fat and happy!!
To Hazel, we greatly appreciate your determination for finding us the perfect spots, best adventures, coolest bartender, dinghy tubing, and wakeboarding master. You are a great captain and we appreciate you allowing the guys to help and keeping Danzi entertained.
AND let’s not forget the amazing tablescapes… honestly overachieving in the best way possible!

Hazel & Yah Yah,
Words cannot describe what an amazing trip this was on the ScubaDoo with the both of you. Every day was special because of you. We will always cherish Anegada.
Thank you for joining our family and putting such love and thoughtfulness into every meal, drink, place setting, love — and most of all that natural loving energy that comes from you both.
We know we are an “interesting bunch”. Thanks for accepting that and going with it. Especially Michael — he will miss the bed ferries, food, sails, beautiful views.
But when we talk about this trip, meeting the two of you will be the number one hardest thing to walk away from.
We will be back and already planning on the next ScubaDoo adventure. Hopefully we see y’all before then.
So much love
Lauren, Kim, Jennifer, Will, Sabrina & Michael
P.S. Hazel’s neutral current really is incredible!
June 2025 BVI Charter
Hazel and YaYa were fantastic. Hazel's skippering ability, combined with the boats equipment, let us do more things than I have done previously. He also accompanied us on land tours (the Baths) and gave us a personal tour. YaYa is a great chef/host. Her cooking is amazing – the best I've ever had on a charter like this. Her passion and talent for cooking really came through. Hazel and YaYa were equally good making drinks. They have a lot of energy and really interacted with my family. We had a lot of fun with them!

Please look us up when you’re in Los Angeles – we would love to see you.

I don’t have the words to express how wonderful and amazing this trip was. You both go above and beyond all!
Hazel, thanks for ‘babysitting’ me on our dives – I would have missed out on so much.

Absolutely incredible experience aboard Scuba Doo, the Lagoon 50 catamaran in the British Virgin Islands! From the moment we stepped on board, Hazel and Ya Ya made us feel like we were on top of the world. Their hospitality was unmatched, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect. Ya Ya’s cooking was out of this world – every meal was a culinary masterpiece, and I was blown away by the variety and freshness of the dishes.
The activities were incredible as well! Scuba diving in the crystal-clear waters was an absolute highlight – I got to explore vibrant coral reefs and swim alongside octopus, sea turtles and exotic fish. Snorkeling was equally amazing, with abundant marine life just waiting to be discovered. For the more adventurous, wakeboarding in the calm, turquoise lagoons was so much fun – and the crew made sure everyone was safe and had a blast. I got up on my first try after Hazel’s great lesson.
The whole trip was a dream come true. If you’re looking for an unforgettable vacation in paradise with a crew that feels like family, I can’t recommend this experience enough. It’s 5 stars all the way!
January 2025 BVI Charter
I just spent an amazing week aboard Scuba Doo 50 in the BVI! We did a lot of fabulous diving, snorkeling, excursions, wakeboarding and other water activities but what really made the experience special was the hospitality and the food by the crew. Somehow, in between preparing restaurant quality meals, snacks and excellent drinks with love and care, leading water excursions, cleaning up after us and keeping the boat and all the water toys well maintained, the crew, Chef Yah Yah and Captain Hazel, also managed to make us feel like family. The environment they created, their ability to always make sure we were comfortable and having the best time and the knowledge they have of the BVI, marine life and the boat absolutely enhanced the whole experience!
I highly recommend a trip on Scuba Doo 50!!
January 2025 BVI Charter
Talk about living the dream! A few weeks ago, I had the absolute pleasure of spending a week aboard Scuba Doo 50. Since I had never chartered a boat before, I had no idea what to expect. But let me tell you – this experience exceeded every expectation! The crew, Yah Yah and Hazel, made the week beyond special. They were warm, welcoming, accommodating, and incredibly service-oriented. Yah Yah’s cooking? Absolute perfection! Every meal was delicious and tailored to our tastes. Hazel’s captain skills? Smooth sailing! He handled everything with confidence and ease, making us feel completely at home. The yacht itself? Stunning, spotless, and packed with every luxury imaginable. You won’t find a better crew or a more incredible experience. All I can say is, don’t just dream about it, go do it!

We have been to the BVI twice prior and chartered a similar boat. Our experience on Scuba Doo was first class and exceeded our expectations. The crew, Ya Ya and Hazel were phenomenal. They went out of their way every day to accommodate our requests and make an amazing experience for our kids. From tubing, diving, E-foiling, snorkeling and beach excursions every day was unique and memorable. Scuba Doo is very spacious and well laid out. We spent most of our down time relaxing up front or up top. The boat has everything you need and high end appointments. The Wifi worked excellent the entire trip and was easy to check work emails if needed. The food and attention to detail was fabulous. Hands down the best cuisine we have experienced on a BVI charter. Our kids who can be picky loved every meal and wished their mother could cook like Ya Ya. We were sad to leave but will always remember this trip and look forward to returning on a boat crewed by Hazel and Ya Ya.

A very special experience for a multitude of different reasons. The freedom to explore all of the BVIs, making it feel like an inclusive experience complete with your own Michelin star worthy chef YahYah. This trip would have been wildly different without them leading the way.
Truly- a once in a lifetime experience that is totally worth it.
Very, very sad for this trip to come to a close.
November 2024 BVI Charter
I just spent a week with Yah Yah and Hazel aboard Scuba Doo
I have to say they make work look like fun and made our charter feel like we are their friends .
Each meal was delicious and presented like being in a fancy fancy restaurant.
I have more pictures of my meals than I should but needed to have them.
I recommend highly trying to get this experience you won’t regret it.

I just chartered Yacht Scuba Doo 50. Had an amazing week with food out of this world . The Captain and Chef Ya Ya are very attentive of all our needs and made our sail the best . Highly recommend the experience.
