Crew Information
Captain: Matt Talmage
Captain Matt
Matt was born in the UK and learnt to sail along the UK coast with many trips to France and the UK Channel iIslands before getting the break to become a charter captain around the Greek Islands. After a few seasons there he returned to the UK but by then he had been spoiled with sailing in warmer waters and the colder UK weather didn’t cut it! In 2016 he found an opportunity to work in the BVI as a captain and sailing instructor so he jumped at the chance! When Covid hit he took a yacht delivery job up to Florida where he met his beautiful wife and they have since settled back down in the Islands together. Matt holds a RYA Yachtmaster as well as USCG credentials. In his spare time he enjoys diving for lobster and relaxing on the beach.
Chef Jana
Jana is originally from Florida’s East coast and grew up alongside the water and beautiful beaches. She trained as a Master Stylist and worked for 18 years as a hair stylist in the Orlando area before meeting her husband Matt by chance when a restaurant only had shared tables available for lunch! After getting married on one of St John’s beaches they decided to move to St Thomas at the end of 2021 and have worked together as a team on boats delivering fantastic food and service. Last summer Matt & Jana ran a few charters in Greece and the Mediterranean style has inspired her menu and dishes. In her spare time Jana loves to walk along the beaches on the lookout to increase her sea glass collection.
