Robbie, Sofia, and Kirsten Happy New Year!!! You three are an amazing team that exceeded so many of our expectations for this trip. We cam e as two families but are leaving as a family with 3 new additions ( you guys). Together we started our days off, ate together, played together, explored together, relaxed together, joked and played music together, watched sunrises and sunsets and re-generated our “batteries” so we can head home to work and think about how to get right back to the island.

Truth be told, I am at a loss for words with thoughts on our C’est La Vie experience. When people have inquired, I’ve simply said “THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME.” The boat – wow! Exceeded our expectations.

Hylton Wessels
CaptainAmy Wessels
ChefDanika Willows
StewardessHylton has covered many miles in his sailing career which started off 10 years ago delivering sailing yachts from South Africa to various parts of the world. Hylton is a certified freediver, SCUBA dive master, in-water whale swim guide and RYA yacht master. The minute you meet Hylton you will catch on to his passion for spearfishing, fishing and freediving. His charisma and enthusiasm will make everyone feel at home onboard. He is an extremely competent Captain and in water guide and will be sure to share any knowledge about freediving and spearfishing to those who are interested.
Amy is a certified Rescue SCUBA diver, freediver, in-water whale swim guide and has her honors degree in Marine Biology. Her passion and bubbly personality make her an instant hit with guests. She has completed 2 Atlantic crossings and has thoroughly enjoyed living on and around the ocean for the last 10 years. Through their travels Amy has picked up recipes from the South Pacific, Indonesia, South Africa and the Caribbean that she will share with you during your stay. One of their favourite parts of their lifestyle is being able to selectively catch what they cook and create fresh and delicious meals onboard or over a beach bonfire.
The crew cannot wait to have you onboard. There will be many stories told and laughs had, but most of all they cannot wait to share our beautiful oceans with you.
Growing up in South Africa near the ocean, Danika was always drawn to the allure of the sea. But it was her upbringing in the service industry that taught her the value of creating exceptional experiences for others.
Her journey took a turn when she landed a job on a yacht in Europe attending the Super yacht cup. She was swept up in the adventure and excitement of life at sea. As she honed her skills on yachts, Danika discovered a passion for adventure and a love for the freedom that came with life on the water.
She decided to move to the BVI and try out a completely different experience, this is what truly captured her heart. The island life, with its vibrant culture and stunning natural beauty, stole her soul. Danika began to appreciate the joy of connecting with others and creating unforgettable experiences for her guests.
Now, as Danika continues on her journey, she is dedicated to merging her love for adventure, service, and the ocean. She aims to inspire a sense of wonder and awe in all those around her.
