Crew Profile

RJ AND LESLIE

Leslie has a zest for life and loves meeting new people. She believes that strangers are just friends that she hasn't met yet. She enjoys exercising, telling stories, traveling and planning the next adventure.

Leslie was born in Nebraska, grew up in Virginia and returned home to "The Good Life". This is where she met her husband R.J., at a Nebraska Football tailgate. Their first adventure together was to the British Virgin Islands where they fell in love with each other and the boating life.

Her real calling was to be a rockstar but instead she became a nurse :). Leslie worked in surgery, trauma and then as an Hematology/Oncology nurse. More recently, she has joined R.J. in their business doing occupational nursing and safety training.

She is considered by many, as a rainmaker. She can take an idea and run with it.

She enjoys cooking for friends and family. She has taken the Rouxbe Culinary course, studied in Thailand and attended Yacht Chef training in London.

Leslie and RJ have two children, and one amazing grandchild.

R.J.'s purpose is to have fun and live a life of adventure with passion while inspiring others. He grew up in Lincoln, NE and obtained a BS degree from Oklahoma State University and now owns a business in his hometown.

He is often quoted as saying "we only live once, let's do it right". He loves a new adventure and really is a genuinely nice human. He is always smiling and willing to lend a helping hand, support, or a compliment. Leslie has often been asked if RJ really is as nice as he seems and the answer is undeniably, Yes! He really is.

R.J. enjoys outdoor activities, investing, real estate, golf and snow skiing.

Sailing and boating have been a big part of R.J.'s life as he has lived on a lake for the last 22 years. With a motorboat and sailboat in the backyard, it has been a lifestyle rather than just a hobby.

RJ and Leslie have shared many adventures over the years including fun trips like the Oktoberfest in Munich, Songkran in Thailand and the Sturgis motorcycle rally in South Dakota. They too are very involved in multiple ongoing fundraisers and philanthropic activities.

Their boat BelieveN came from such travels. Her red “N” pays homage to their Nebraska roots. They named her BelieveN, as a reminder to Believe in yourself. Pursue your dreams. Know that you are worth it. Take the leap. Sing the song. Make friends. Live a life – don’t just live. And whatever else you put your mind to, just don’t stop BelieveN

Please come on down and experience the life in this magical part of the world with us!

Charter Yacht BELIEVEN Guest Reviews

By Far Our Favorite Trip Ever

Thank you guys for an absolutely incredible trip! You made our 20th Anniversary celebration so special and memorable. The food was spectacular, and we both really enjoyed snorkeling each day. This was by far our favorite trip we've ever taken. We can't wait to talk our friends and family into coming back with us.... or maybe just us :) We're looking forward to jumping off Willy T's again and having your perfected Lime in Da Coconut cheescake. Until next time!

Incredible Experience.

Such an incredible experience. No words to thank you for the life long memories we will cherish forever. It truly felt like we were on vacation with friends. Your service could not have been any better. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

You Two Are Amazing!!

This trip will forever be in our "Best Trips Ever". You two are both amazing! We are so glad we were able to become friends and can't wait to do this again. You are masters of sailing and make everything you do seem effortless. Leslie, your meals were sooooo good!

Returned To An Even Better Experience

Two years later..... they returned to an even better experience. We are so grateful that RJ and Leslie are part of our lives....thanks for making our experience so meaningful, fun, relaxing and memorable.

First of Many Charters

You two knocked it out of the park for us! First of many charters to come. I will not forget the beautiful waters, the calm of the boat and your kindness. We hope to see you both on another beautiful trip in the future. All the best to you both

So Welcoming and Accommodating

You make it so easy to relax and enjoy the beauty and friendships around us. Thanks for being so welcoming and accommodating. Life is about experiences and people. You guys provided memorable ones! RJ and Leslie are now formally part of the Hegan/Johnston crew

Returning Guests

The only way we could have topped our first charter experience with you was to return, and of course you met and then went beyond our expectations! We love everything about how you have become such a big part of our annual trip with dear friends, and can't thank you enough! See you in 2025!!!

Life-long Friends

Thank you both for a wonderful experience! You are the most amazing hosts and made our trip easy and incredibly relaxing. It was exactly what we all needed as we left freezing temperatures behind. We felt very pampered and the food was spectacular! It was a pleasure to finally get to meet you both and have now made life-long friends. Thanks also for making Sonya's birthday so special and letting us host the band on our last day. A special thanks to Leslie to allow our "eggplant" flag to fly on the boat to celebrate the Chiefs Super Bowl win! You both are the best and we will be back!

Amazing Trip

Thank you for an amazing trip. It was so much fun and relaxing. Our 1st trip on a boat was a great experience. The beaches were great, as was the company, and the food was delicious. Meeting all of your friends and having the boat party was great. Loved the band and the unicorn :). I don't have the words ro describe the great time we had!

Next level Of Awesome!

Every day is a new favorite day! As soon as I think "this is the highlight of the trip", the next day somehow achieves a higher level of awesome. Chef Leslie is an inspiration. Captain RJ a trusty sailor. We avoided the snow in Nebraska in the best way possible. Can't wait to come back.

You Are Simply The Best!

Thank you for simply the best vacation ever! We couldn't imagine a better team to celebrate our 10th anniversary with. You absolutely nailed everything we hoped for and were so much fun to hang with. Your home is beautiful and we're grateful for sharing it with us. The experiences you provided were fantastic, the scenery beautiful, the sailing exceptional, but as with most things in life, the people you do things with make all the difference. You two are simply the best pair and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Until we see you again.....

Unbelievable Experience!

There isn't enough room on this page or enough words to express our happiness for such an unbelievable experience! Everything was exquisite and first class. We never enjoyed such incredible food and service. We will always treasure these memories - the laughs, the conversations, the food, the drinks, snorkeling, sites and on and on..... A week ago we were total strangers and now we are friends and that was an unexpected bonus. You two are incredible people and we feel blessed to have met you and to have shared in your dream. Thank you for making my "Birthday Float' so special....it was a dream come true and completely unforgettable. You are about to take me off kicking and screaming and ugly crying when we say goodbye....but we will be back! We can't wait to do this again with you.
Guest Comment

Outstanding!

We chose BelieveN and found it amazing. RJ and Leslie are outstanding! The food alone put the vacation over the top. Leslie is a fabulous chef. We loved the opportunity to sail into all the beautiful bays in the USVI and snorkel with the sea turtles and go to sleep with the gentle rocking of the yacht. They made us feel at home instantly and it was perfect! Could not have asked for a better crew!

Believen is a beautiful diamond!

Some days I find gems searching the internet and your boat is a brilliant diamond! So happy we we’re able to follow thru and make the trip. Your hospitality was fantastic and all the food and drinks puts your charter above the rest. Thank you for all the details (table settings and all the amenities. Love, loved it!

The food was fantastic!!!

Thank you for the fabulous experience. The food was fantastic!!! There was always plenty to eat and drink. The tomkwa was a favorite but it was hard to pick. Favorite activity was just bobbing in the bay and waking up to a different view each day. The service and the attention to detail was perfect. Thank you!

The most enjoyable part of the trip was getting to know the two of you!

Don't know where to start! Had no idea what to expect. Thank you so much for sharing you “home” with us! The beaches you took us to were all amazing in their own way. We enjoyed the diversity of each and every place you showed us. But I think the most enjoyable part of the trip was getting to know the two of you. Fun, welcoming, accommodating! And the food! Every single meal and snack was amazing, as well as the presentation. Loved the spices and the heat. Thank you for an amazing vacation.

A great week, with great crew and amazing sites!

It’s been an unforgettable week! We will hold it forever in our memories. These days were unique, special and unforgettable. We felt at home or even better, it was everyday in paradise, with the family. The views, the dinghy, the food, the drinks and how you took charge of us, made a big difference, and it felt really like family. A special mention to Leslie, our Masterchef and her delicious and lovely dishes, full of love and great task. Also RJ, our Captain, guide and host, who was always taking care of every detail and need we might have. Best caipirinha in town!! In summary, a great week, with great crew and amazing sites! You will remain in our hearts forever!

Amazing Vacation!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for providing us with such an amazing vacation! You both have given us a trip that we will never forget and will talk about for years to come. We will definitely be back to travel with you all again. Your story has been amazing to hear and such an inspiration to follow your dreams. We look forward to our next trip experiencing the beautiful USVI. You have hooked us on the yachting vacation!

Unforgettable Week

All of us appreciated all your accommodations this past week. Thank you for giving us a delightful and unforgettable week in the USVI.

Attentive, Professional and Kind

Thank you for an amazing time! You both are very attentive, professional, kind and down to earth. You made us feel very comfortable on your yacht. Leslie, the food was absolutely delicious. It was beautiful to watch you both work with each other. We felt so taken care of, you were always asking if we needed anything. You both are absolutely a pleasure! Thank you.

Was A Blast

You know that saying "third time's a charm"? Well it's true!! This is my third trip to the USVI on charter and it was the best trip YET! You two have the perfect personality for this. Chef Leslie is the BOMB. The meals were scrumptious. Every activity was a blast from chillin' on the boat, to hikes, to going to dinner, to snorkeling - all of it ...super! I absolutely can't wait to come back SOON Thank you for having us.

Gracious Crew

Thank you for one of our favorite weeks ever! Your attention to detail of each guest is second to none. Our excursions were perfect and well planned. Now the food - best ever! Leslie knocked it out of the park with our meals. Both RJ and Leslie have been the most gracious crew we could ask for and hope to bring our kids back to join us for another trip.
