Patric & Mary, Diane and Jacques
Patric and Mary have been running Charter boats for over 20 years and 11 years now on S/Y Tranquility. There are not many islands in the Caribbean where they haven’t been either sailing or diving. They are more than happy to share with you the best spots above and
below water! The exciting bit was the exploring of some “o the beaten track” places like Cuba, Exumas, Galapagos, San Blas Islands, Bahamas or Jamaica. They are complemented by Chief Stew Diane and 1st Mate and Dive Master Jacques.
Their goal is to make sure you are having the best Sailing Holiday on water, one can possibly imagine.
While sailing on Tranquility, you can expect a tailor made and relaxed sailing vacation with an experienced and fun Team.

Captain: Patric Guyaz / Swiss
Patric has held a 200 ton RYA Yacht Master Captains license for over 20 years and has been an active PADI Dive Instructor for almost 25 years.
He has travelled extensively and would probably still be running around the globe, if he had not got stuck, working for a Summer Camp out of the British Virgin Islands. Teaching teenagers sailing and diving was probably one of the most rewarding and fun things he’s
ever done. He still enjoys taking youngsters out for a dive or teaching guests how to tack, jibe and pinch on this large luxury Catamaran he calls home now. Patric sailed a lot up and down the Caribbean but also clocked miles in the Mediterranean,
Australia, the English Channel and has captained 3 successful Atlantic crossings. He worked as a dive instructor in Egypt, Maldives, Australia, Honduras, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa and the BVI and has certified over a thousand students.
A Swiss sense of humor, (good luck) coupled with a professional, open and relaxed manner. He will make you feel safe and at home the moment you step aboard Tranquility.

Master of Knifes & Forks: Mary Haddow, United Kingdom
Mary was born in the UK and worked in the movie business before giving up the camera for a cooker.
Having had the opportunity to travel the world, from Europe to Australia, Africa to India and the USA to the Caribbean, she has had the chance to sample many of the world's cuisines. She takes great delight in sharing these flavours with you. She will tailor any menus to suit you and your family's requirements and tastes. Quality of produce remains the mainstay of her cooking.
Flexible with a lively sense of humour, her aim is to make your stay as scrumptious and tasty as possible.

Chief Stewardess: Diane Moffitt, Norther Ireland
Born in Northern Ireland, Diane has spent the last 30 years living in many interesting places around the world. Arriving in BVI for a week in 2015, she fell in love with the place and decided to stay a wee while longer and has been working in the sailing industry since.
Growing up on a farm, she has a strong work ethic, and always ready to help you any way she can. With her ‘heavy handed’ pours, she'll fix you a drink any time of the day. When not on the boat, she can be found lambing sheep in Canada, Scotland, England or
France and summers driving tractors, all for fun. Diane looks forward to welcoming you on board and getting to know how you like your co ee.
She enjoys travelling, hiking, horse riding and really enjoys learning about other cultures & great food. Ask her about driving the tractor!

1st Mate / Divemaster: Jacques Hoffman, South Africa
All the way from sunny South Africa, Jacques is the newest member to the team. With more than 15 years in the hospitality industry and the past four years spent in yachting, he has built his career defined by passion, professionalism, and a love for adventure. His journey
has taken him from running his own successful beach-themed restaurants on land to working across a wide range of roles at sea - from Head Chef and Head of Housekeeping to Dive Master and experienced Deckhand. This diverse background has given him strong appreciation for teamwork, attention to detail, and creating exceptional guest experience. Now serving as First Mate, he holds a Master of Yachts 200GT O shore license and takes pride in assisting keeping things running smoothly above and below deck. Known for his positive outlook and easy-going nature, Jacques believes life at sea to be all about balance - hard work, good food, great company and unforgettable moments on the
water. His zest for life and passion for the ocean make him a valued part of the crew and a pleasure to have around.
