Captain: Nate Riley

Capt. Nate Riley
In 1989, I assisted my parents in their preparation for a transatlantic crossing from California to Scotland. Though I did
not get to make that voyage, it did ignite my passion for sailing and the ocean. I grew up in Michigan around the water
and it always fascinated me. So, when a friend called one January asking, “Can you turn wrenches on a sailboat? There
was no decision to be made and off I went. I began my career as an engineer on a crew of 5 and eventually earned my
200GRT/500 GT USCG license. Since then, I have worked on vessels of varying sizes; 65’ to 245’. From scuba dive
liveaboards to Alaskan Summer adventure boats.

During these past 25 years of being in this industry, there have been so many wonderful adventures. I have participated
in organized shark feeds, visited many Islands (Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico, USVI’s, and BVI’s), explored
uninhabited Islands, crossed the Gulf Stream countless times, and even wrote a #1 Amazon scuba travel guide. Bahamas
Bucket List for Divers: Bimini Edition.

I find enjoyment sharing my passion and knowledge for the ocean and navigation. When on land, I enjoy entering in 5k
races and have also participated in a few marathons. I love to fish when on charter and have recently gotten into surfing.
If there is one thing you can be certain of, I will do everything within the realm of weather and safety to make sure your
vacation is the most memorable one ever. It would be my pleasure to be your Captain.




Chef Hilary Gieber
It was a typical Michigan Winter in the Upper Peninsula (iykyk), January 2011. I was packing in the middle of a blizzard
and was headed to the US Virgin Islands. It would be my first time traveling to The Caribbean. I knew nothing about
sailing, and even less about the ocean and scuba diving. Growing up around the Great Lakes I had great respect for the
water, but no Ocean experience. I had agreed to a job on a 104’ Custom Sailing Vessel that traveled between the Virgin
Islands and the Bahamas, diving everywhere in between (Puerto Rico, Turks and Caicos, BVI). Immediately I was in heaven
and twelve years later here I am.

During that time, I soaked up everything I could about sailing, scuba diving, and the ocean world below us. I had found
the lifestyle that suited me during these years, but truly found my home in the Galley. From Florida and The Caribbean all
the way to Alaska I have enjoyed feeding and entertaining guests from all over the world. Using local ingredients along
the way andaAlways taking in the latest food and drink trends. My Fiancé and Captain would call me a “foodie,” but I just
love and get excited about food.

Being a part of guests’ underwater experiences has been a great pleasure of my life. Teaching them about the world
below is another true passion of mine. I now hold my Rescue Diver certification, STCW, and have over ten years of sea
time. On a typical day you can find me up early to exercise and getting my mind right, before starting breakfast and food
prep for the day. I enjoy afternoon snorkeling, getting together with family and friends, playing cards, and anything
involving the outdoors. This life has allowed me to continue traveling and exploring the world we live in, and I hope to
share that and my food with all of you!

Yacht was older but in extremely good condition. The spaces on the boat were amazing. We enjoyed upper deck immensely. The food was outstanding - very much gourmet. Crew was on the spot. Plenty of activities on boat. Crew was amazing. Very professional and accommodating. They knew our every need. It was like we were family - could not asked for a better crew. Captain and First Mate did excellent job giving details and recommendations. We had a medical issue and they went out of their was to adjust and accommodate us. Captain definitely knew the area and had great knowledge of the islands. Exceeded our expectations. Amazing crew - they thought of everything.

My wife Jennifer and I have been coming down to the BVI for over 20 years now. We have chartered both with a captain as well as doing bare boat excursions. I can honestly say that our week on Touch The Sky has been one of the most rewarding vacations we have ever done. Captain Richard and Chef Suzanne were more than we could have imagined. The skillset for both of them was obvious from the very beginning. However, the way they embraced our family and the way they took care of us was more than special. It was genuine.

We were a three generation group, which I imagine could be a daunting assignment, when you are in relatively close quarters. Our grandkids are 9, almost 7, and 5 years of age. Jennifer and I wanted our kids and grandkids to experience as much of the BVI experience as possible in a week. We succeeded because of Captain Richard and Suzanne. Norman Island, Cooper Island, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke were all destinations that we were able to enjoy. The grandkids acclimated themselves quickly to the sailing lifestyle and that was all due to Captain Richard and Suzanne.

I cannot say enough about Chef Suzanne and her culianry expertise. We were so pampered from morning fruit plates on the fly bridge followed by an amazing breakfast. Lunches were always a treat but the best always was the dinners she served us in the evenings on the back of Touch The Sky. The flavors and presentation of each meal rivaled ANY meal you might get on shore. Her salmon dinner as well as the family recipe she shared one night for pasta was amazing. I am still blown away by the quality of each meal coming out of that galley kitchen. Needless to say, coming home after a week eating Chef Suzanne’s meals was a real jolt of reality. Coffee on the fly bridge in the early morning is still the best.

Finally, I cannot say enough about Captain Richard. With him at the helm you are going to be in safe hands. His quiet confidence and calm demeanor was infectious. I think what was really special is the way he (and Suzanne) brought our grandkids into their world. With his assistance, each took turns at the wheel. He showed infinite patience in answering their questions. Each night while Suzanne and Richard were plating dinner, they let our 5 year old granddaughter run food to the table. It sounds like an insignificant thing but I assure you it was magical.

Finally, thank you Paradise Yacht Management for matching us up with Captain Richard and Chef Suzanne. Touch The Sky was our home for the week. We came away feeling sad having to leave it and the wonderful people who crewed it. Let it rock!

April 2023
Touch The Sky and the crew Captain Richard and Chef Suzanne facilitated one of the most memorable family vacations that our family has ever experienced. There is not enough space on this site to detail the magic that unfolded on our adventure. Touch The Sky was safe, comfortable and allowed us to explore the BVI with total confidence. Again, can't say NEARLY enough about Captain Richard and Chef Suzanne. They embraced our three generation group and made us feel totally at ease. We went into the week being flexible and knowing the weather conditions would determine a lot of what we did. We crammed a LOT of bucket list moments.

We are back from sailing the BVI and WOW!! what an amazing time had. Thank you for all your help getting our trip set up. We had a couple in our group that has sailed 3-4 times before and they said this was the BEST. I think that was because we were there with them but really we had the BEST Boat, and the BEST BEST crew. Suzanne and Richard are a 10+ in our book.

Richard & Suzanne,
Wow! What a cruise. Our family was so lucky to be able to take a trip like this. But even luckier to have the two of you take care of us. It is amazing how two extremely professional people can also be so fun and able to blend in with our group. Suzanne – the food! I am hoping for many of your recipes – absolutely outstanding! I hope the boat owner knows how lucky he is to have you taking care of this beautiful boat. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and assistance while we were sick. If you ever find yourselves in Georgia – you are welcome.

Best wishes,

What a difference a fabulous crew makes on a trip like this. You are both amazing and such fun. I’m just so sorry we all got sick. It just made it so much harder for you, but you were perfect anyway. Thanks so much for everything. The boat owner is extremely lucky to have you both. Thank again. Safe travels always.

We loved meeting you both. Your personalities were a great compliment to our group. Having such an experienced crew like you we knew we were always safe, always went to the best spots, and always moored far away from the mosquitos! You are the perfect blend of five star service but not stuffy and engage in such a genuine way. We look forward to sailing with you again and wouldn’t want to have another sailing adventure without you.

Thank you for making it easy for me with the diet restrictions. It was reassuring that you could work with what I could eat. Loved the variety, so many things I could eat. From when I first started taking to you about diet, I knew I didn’t need to worry. Thank you so much! It made a difference in my trip! Thank you again!

Most amazing trip ever! Thank you for your hospitality, knowledge, amazing food, and company. I loved Richard’s silly sense of humor and Suzanne’s amazing cooking. Trip of a lifetime! If you ever need a third on the crew, I may need to quit my full time job!

Fxxxg flawless. Literally everything from the first hello has been flawless. My expectations have been surpassed beyond belief and despite my healthy hesitation for and of the water, I can’t wait to come back. Mostly to hang with both of you. But the view is always pretty damn awesome (thanks for that, Richard).

Dear Richard & Suzanne,
We can’t thank you enough for your amazing hospitality aboard Touch the Sky. The meals, and pre-meals, were delicious and the service was impeccable … Your warmth and inviting spirit allowed us to fully enjoy being present with one another, all too easily missed on a day to day basis.
The Christmas touches were perfect from the lights to the tray of Christmas cookies and candies.
One of the best vacations and most memorable Christmases ever! We will be back!!! You both are the best!!!

Hi Suzanne & Richard,

Thank you so much for such a memorable experience sailing around St. John with our YPO group. We loved every minute. It was Ryan and my first boat trip and it surely will not be our last. You were both fantastic hosts and we so enjoyed getting to know you. Our favorite bay was Salt Pond – the turtles were amazing! Thank you for a relaxing, easy, and unforgettable trip. And the meals… can we talk about that? The food and hospitality exceeded our expectations! We hope to return soon!”

Dear Richard and Suzanne,

We can’t thank you enough for your generosity and hospitality! We loved tubing in Magens Bay, stargazing off St. John, and snorkeling in countless beautiful coves. Suzanne, the food was incredible! We especially loved your banana pancakes, crab cakes, sun-dried tomato ravioli and ALL the desserts! Thanks for sharing evening card games and giving us a family vacation we will never forget! The thought of doing another charter without Richard and Suzanne is not even an option for us.
