A Crew with Heart – A Story Built on Passion and Purpose

Ben and Nini’s journey began in 2006, on their very first sailing vacation together in the Grenadines. That trip sparked a dream—one they turned into a shared life mission. Over the years, they gathered experience, earned certifications, and fell deeper in love with life at sea. By 2017, they were chartering in the Bahamas, and by 2020, they had launched their own successful yacht charter program across the Caribbean and Mediterranean.

Their incredible 42% repeat client rate speaks for itself—including Lady Rosé’s very own owner, who was so moved by their dedication and warmth that he entrusted them as his exclusive crew.

Now joined by Jade, this dream team welcomes you aboard Lady Rosé to share in their love of the sea, their passion for hospitality, and their desire to create experiences that truly stay with you.
