Dear Bryan and Patti,
Thank you for a wonderful vacation. I so appreciate your hospitality! The food was delicious and the land outings were so much fun. Thanks for accommodating our requests n.
Dear Bryan and Patti,
Thank you so much for a wonderful BVI adventure. Great swimming, snorkeling, and hiking. Water and travels were perfect and we lloved the excursion to the bubbly pool! 🙂 Food was so delicious Patti, we enjoyed it all and such good homemade bread. We are filled with memories now that will be with us for a long time. Best of luck on all of your adventures!
Andy and Lisa
Dear Bryan and Patti,
Thank you for hosting this magical trip, we will.
Bryan and Patti,
What amazing hosts you both are! The Island Hoppin' is great but you truly made it home for our short time aboard. Patti- I can't think of one sip or bite that was just "meh". Literally every meal was spot on and as close to perfect as I've had! We've eaten lots of great food over the years and know good food when we taste it! Simply wow. And your service was ALWAYS accompanied by your warm smile-no matter what keep smiling-it's a god given gift! Bryan- Thank you for help.
Dear Bryan and Patti,
I have always said in life we end with memories and some will be great while others not so much. So much is out of our control and we spend our life trying to make favorable memories in our control. Those memories in our control I measure by "smile factor" and this trip was a 10 out of 10! You both care so much and it shows. You made our whole family smile and we all had the highest smile factor possible 24/7! Very happy we met and had such a great time. Thank you an.
Chef Patti & Captain Bryan,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for an unforgettable week. Patti, each meal was made with such care and love and I looked forward to every meal. The birthday cake and decorations meant more to me than I can express. It was such a thoughtful, beautiful surprise. Bryan, you made each day feel effortless and fun. Thank you for guiding us to such incredible places and creating moments I will never forget. You both didn't just create a trip- you created me.
Chef Patti and Captain Bryan,
Thank you for an unforgettable week in the BVI! Our families had an incredible time thanks to the both of you! We started to vacation together a few years ago and every trip is an adventure that you all made especially memorable. We are very proud that our teenagers broke your previously held record for snack consumption an that we broke Captain Bryan down to quit "Sober March". We hope that as you both finish your last charter season that we helped make it j.
Bryan and Patti,
Oh my gosh, we had the best trip ever! Thank you, thank you, thank you Bryan and Patti for making our Island Hoppin experience exceed our expectations! Patti, your skills in the galley were excellent. We loved the amazing flavor we kept swooning over and the perfect variety. That bacon jam OMG!!!! You have a special gift with all of your creations! Bryan, thank you for teaching us the e-foil, making sure we danced at the full moon party, sailing, fishing, chasing rainbows.
Bryan and Patti,
As I look back over the second charter with you and Island Hoppin', my heart is so full. From the moment we stepped back onboard, it felt less like the start of a vacation and more like picking up right where we left off with people we genuinely care about. You both have such a gift of making every detail memorable, and every experience unforgettable. The adventure filled days of exploring Anegada or dinghying to beach bars, are the kind of adventures we'll always remembe.
Bryan and Patti,
Thank you so much for an amazing week. Patti the food was amazing..open a restaurant and we will be there! Bryan thanks for smooth sailing in rainy weather and for putting up with all our shenanigans. It was all incredible.
Nate and Julia.
Bryan and Patti,
You are the best Captain and Chef duo we have met. Thanks so much for helping us experience an unforgettable in the BVI! AMAZING WEEK!! Bryan and Patti, you are the perfect pair. Thank you for your incredible service, delicious meals, memorable adventures, and for making our week everything we could have imagined.
Bryan and Patti are the absolute best! As the saying goes, 3rd time is a charm. Not that our first two charters weren't magnificent, but THIS tim.
Bryan and Patti,
We cannot even begin to thank you enough for the trip of a lifetime. From incredible scuba adventures to many amazing meals, this week exceeded all expectations. Hopefully you'll now include the infamous "Maryland Orange Crush" in your rotation of cocktails. We had a blast with the E-Foil and had many good laughs watching some epic wipeouts. We also appreciate your patience as some guests continuously asked to drive the dinghy 🙂 This crew is not one that has the opportun.
Bryan and Patti,
My daughter kept on me and my wife to book a trip. I was reluctant since we have and have had many boats. However, I have enjoyed this trip immensely! The cooking was amazing and Patti should open a restaurant at some point. Bryan, your scheduling of events like diving, snorkeling, and scenic locations along with attention to detail and comfort was perfect (you could relax more). Wishing you both all the success and vest that life has to offer. You both deserve that and .
Our first charter was nothing short of magical and our favorite vacation to date. Island Hoppin has everything you need/want, but Bryan and Patti make it special. Perfectly executed itinerary and meals created with so much effort and care. This is the standard to which all future vacations will be measured. So many laughs, lots of sunshine, and maybe a few too many cocktails.
For memories: The stars at night, sunsets, the food!!!, truck tour of Anegada, celebrating our 20th anniversary, .
Bryan and Patti,
Thank you so much for everything. You took great care of us, fed us tremendously and were very kind along the way. This was our first time sailing and any other experience will be challenge to keep up with you. It was a pleasure getting to know you and we hope to follow you as enjoy a great career and life together.
Bryan and Patti,
Wow-hard to put into words how amazing this week was. Simply put...once (but hopefully not) in a lifetime. You both we.
Patti and Bryan,
How lucky we were to have spent the last 8 days in your capable hands! From late nights and mornings to incessant questions, you both handled our antics beautifully. We've never experienced such luxury in our lives! We'll greatly miss Bryans chauffeur service and Pattis exceptional cooking. Thank you for the experience of a lifetime!.
Dear Bryan and Patti,
We can not thank you enough. Another amazing vacation. Bryan- you planned our days and you were right on. Snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing, beach and swim time. Perfect for all of us. Patti- your cooking just kept getting better. Such a wonderful assortment from breakfast to dinner. You two are the best. I wish you blessing and good fortune in the future. Congratulations on your engagement. I pray all good things for you together. Hopefully we will find you for anot.
Bryan and Patti,
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation (much needed). We enjoyed our time with each of you! Bryan, thank you for making so many amazing dives possible! What an extraordinary place this is! Thanks to Patti for making such exquisite food, just fantastic! You both run this yacht so well and we wish you both all the best and perhaps we can do this again!
Dear Bryan and Patti,
Thank you for making us feel welcome on this fabulous yacht. We enjoyed getting to .
Bryan and Patti,
What a glorious week on board Island Hoppin' and all the amazing anchorages we got to see. This was a family vacation of a lifetime. A prior guest described it as EPIC-which I've only used once prior- but our time on Island Hoppin' lives up to that high praise. Patti, you truly amazed with the quality and variety of meals. You made it seem so easy as well, you truly have a gift. Bryan you have an uncanny ability to find calm water and safe harbor. And you provided every t.
One word-EPIC! We had the best vacation in the BVI with Bryan and Patti. Where do we even start? The food was incredible and so varied! We appreciate you accommodating all of our dietary preferences! We loved Island Hoppin' and all of the toys we got to play with. Bryan- you found such beautiful spots to anchor and the baths were super fun. Thanks for teaching us the diver roll back into the dinghy! The diving was awesome from wreck dives to amazing tropical coral reefs. You two were so hospitab.
Thank you for providing an exemplary experience for our family! Every meal was outstanding, and the anchorages picturesque. This has been our favorite family vacation ever and we look forward to the next one. Be on the lookout for some new songs inspired by this trip!
Bryan and Patti, thank you so much for the funnest trip we have ever taken! We had the best time with not only eachother but had even more fun with you guys! You both made sure to take us to the coolest places to ens.
Wow! Bryan & Patti, Great trip; you two are a dynamic duo! Awesome trip!
Will and I had the best week sailing on Island Hoppin. You to have it going on! The best food; we were shocked by how delicious the food was. We loved all the spots Bryan stopped at-however Anegada was our favorite. Bryan always had a plan B and never seemed frazzled by a change in plans. Patti always seemed so chill and glided through the galley with ease. We are going to miss the boat and this trip so m.
We absolutely loved the yacht Island Hoppin'! So spacious and comfortable. The Primary cabin was so comfortable with an overabundance of storage. There were also so many places to plug in your electronics. We felt so pampered. Patti would make all the beds while we were eating breakfast and turn down the beds and on the electric candles each evening (yes, I realize that is an amenity, but still nice!). The bathroom had a window to see out and was stocked with nice towels, body wash, shampoo, an.
So there I was, floating in the beautiful blue/turquoise waters of the Bahamas. There were so many “pinch me” moments on Island Hoppin’, a stunningly beautiful and amazingly outfitted Lagoon 55 Catamaran.
The owners love to sail, pay attention to the little things, and want you to have an amazing time aboard their well appointed catamaran. From morning wake ups with amazing views out my window, to final wind down in a plush and comfy turned down bed complete wi.
This is my fourth cruise on Island Hoppin’ and my first on the new Lagoon 55. Also the first Bahamas cruise as well. I will say straight out, Island Hoppin’ does not disappoint!
From the beautifully appointed Lagoon 55 to the fabulous service and food that Captain Bryan and First Mate/Chef Patti provided, this charter has to be the best.
We sailed from Nassau to George Town, Exumas in early March, stopping almost every day in beautiful, Bahamas l.
This is our third trip on Island Hoppin and the first on the brand new Island Hoppin'. Wow!!
What's new this time was we sailed in the Bahamas and we had a new crew. We always enjoy getting away and being in the sun and warm waters. This year, Island Hoppin is a new 55 ft Lagoon catamaran. Slightly bigger than the previous boat, it provides much more space in the salon and the rear dining area. Also the flybridge is larger and has a refrigerator for cold drinks up top as well as.
Our sailing experience aboard Island Hoppin' with Captain Bryan and First Mate/Chef Patti was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we stepped foot on the boat, we were captivated by its beauty and charm. The sleek design and pristine condition of the vessel set the tone for what would be an unforgettable journey.
The amenities on board were simply amazing. We were impressed by the attention to detail and the thoughtfulness put into every aspect of the boat. From luxurio.
I didn’t think Island Hoppin’ could get better after my first experience last year but this new boat and crew were impeccable. As soon as we approached the boat, Bryan and Patty were nothing but friendly, helpful and caring. The boat was so spacious with ample storage, comfortable rooms and plenty of places to lounge. Throughout the week, I was constantly amazed by all of the meals Patty was serving; she made fresh bread and pastries from scratch. The monkey bread for breakfast and t.
2026-2027 Season Crew
Kyle and Tilly have been running luxury charters for the last 4 years and bring a wealth of experience, energy and fun onboard. With over 60 charters around the Virgin Islands and time chartering in the Windward Isles, Scotland and even Tonga together, Kyle and Tilly know how to make your vacation truly unforgettable.
Kyle was brought up on the wild west coast of Scotland and spent every moment on the sea, whether that be teaching sailing at his local club, catching the ferry to school every day or kayaking round the coast line he calls home. After a summer spent teaching sailing in France he came back and met Tilly, they quickly realized they shared the same passion for adventure and the ocean and spent two years working and exploring the Highlands and Islands. After an especially cold and wet winter they jumped on a boat and sailed across the Atlantic towards the sunshine.
Tilly was always drawn to fresh food, finding joy in growing produce and creating dishes that champion local and seasonal flavours. Most of her professional life has been spent in the hospitality industry, both front and back of house, cooking in cafes, restaurants and for one summer a tent in the English countryside! After graduating university she moved to a remote Scottish island where she met Kyle. Although Tilly had plenty of experience driving power boats, sailing was a different story, and her first sailing trip was crossing the Atlantic ocean with Kyle in 2021. Completely hooked, they started chartering on a 50ft catamaran, before moving onto a larger vessel and then taking on a brand new 51ft lagoon which they delivered from Annapolis to the Virgin Islands together. After a break back home in Scotland they set out on another adventure, running vacations in the Pacific nation of Tonga on a catamaran and eco island retreat.
As a captain in the Virgin Islands, Scotland and Tonga, Kyle is known for his level headed attitude, commitment for creating the best vacation ever and his slight Scottish cheekiness! Charters with Kyle never have a dull moment whether that be non stop activities or finding the calmest bay with no other boats around to simply float and be. Tilly prides herself on making real connections with everyone that steps onboard through good food, special moments and her infectious laughter. Often found up early making homemade sourdough or sneaking in an early morning snorkel, she is our onboard marine biologist after all! Kyle and Tilly are delighted to now be chartering in the Virgin Islands where their career began and can't wait to welcome you aboard.
