Crew Profiles:
Jos and Julia hail from England and have been travelling together for over 11 years. After meeting whilst teaching watersports in Greece, they subsequently ran luxury ski chalets and villas in Europe before transitioning to yachting. They have been chartering in the Caribbean together for over 8 years.
Jos earned his commercial Yachtmaster qualification from the Royal Yachting Association and holds all the necessary credentials to safely captain AURA throughout your charter. He will also be your Divemaster onboard, showing certified divers the magic of the underwater world. We’ve lost count, but he has over 400 dives with guests here in the BVI. An avid fisherman, he will also spend hours with those wanting to fish!
Julia enjoys looking after the guests onboard and ensuring they are happy, having fun and never with an empty glass in hand! Originally from an educational background, she especially enjoys families and kids onboard. For active guests, she will happily take those looking for an adventure hiking on the trails around the BVI. Both love what they do and are committed to creating vacations you will remember for a lifetime.
Jos and Julia are joined by the fabulous Kim for the Summer of 2023. Kim is a phenomenal chef with 9 years of successful private and commercial charter experience with over 200 charters under her belt. Always respectful of guest preferences, her fun and colourful personality is reflected in her cooking, mixing available local produce with international flavours.

LH – April 2023, BVI April 2023Best vacation EVER!!! 10 STARS!! Truly, this vacation has topped all our adventures! And we will be back! I have been to the BVI twice before on a self-crewed yacht, and while the adventure was fun, it paled in comparison to this crewed yacht with Jos, Julia, and Kim. This is the most professional, most experienced crew that anyone could want for a vacation, and it was worth every penny.
The Yacht: What can one say to a brand new 65-foot yacht that is fitted with every option for a luxurious space. The owner spared no expense, it is truly gorgeous! A perfect vessel for this amazing trip.
The Crew: This crew was simply amazing. The three of them were so compatible and professional that you could feel the seamless movement of their service floating about.
This trip was the perfect pace and perfect escape from reality to relax and rejuvenate. Having someone else in the driver’s seat, planning and taking charge was so refreshing, especially for a single parent who is always in the driver’s seat. It was so nice to just be a passenger and enjoy the ride. ♡♡
