Captain Dick Stuart
Captain Dick Stuart, a mechanical engineer by training, enjoyed a successful career in construction sales management. He started his sailing career at the early age of 10 in an El Toro on Lafayette Reservoir in Northern California. Growing up, much of his time was spent sailing on San Francisco Bay and extensively bareboat chartering throughout the Caribbean. Captain Dick, in preparation for what he thought was a “retirement dream plan” continued to hone his sailing skills over the years.
He holds a 100 TON MASTERS WITH SAILING ENDORSEMENT, an FCC Marine Radio Operators Certification and a Dive Instructor Certification. Captain Dick has an excellent reputation as “the troubleshooting ninja”, and uses his knowledge of mechanical systems to anticipate all the “what ifs.”
Safety is Captain Dick’s priority for his guests, but FUN is his second! An adventure seeker and water lover, he moved to the beautiful island of Puerto Rico in 2017 and loves sailing the beautiful aquamarine waters and island hopping.
Captain Dick welcomes all guests with his famous Captain’s Cocktails nightly! He is an avid Cribbage player and will challenge the best!
Chef/Stew Kim Richards
Kim’s love for sailing began in 2012,the first time she set foot on a catamaran in the BVI. She has been“hooked” ever since! After completed sailing classes in Colorado and California, Kim captained several catamarans in Mexico and the Caribbean. She delights in creating the ultimate pampering venue for guests and sharing the magical experience of sailing the beautiful Caribbean waters!
An accomplished business owner, motivational speaker and author, she understands the ultimate importance of customer service and has a keen eye for personal detail. Kim is extremely passionate about food and hospitality, ensuring every delicious meal is prepared according to guest preference. From her attention to detail to her carefully crafted meals and cocktails, Kim ensures your vacation experience far exceeds your expectations!
An avid traveler, Kim has a great sense of adventure. Her adventures have taken her bungee jumping in New Zealand, skiing in the European Alps, fly fishing in Montana and Utah, volunteering as a nurse (former ER and Trauma RN) in Ethiopia and Uganda, hiking in Patagonia and Class V white water rafting in Colorado. A fitness and yoga instructor for over 30 years, she lives an active lifestyle in whatever location she may be.
Kim exudes a tranquility to the guests that is based on her lifelong practice of yoga and meditation, allowing everyone the opportunity to absorb the soothing nature of the sea. Come along as she paddle boards to the shore for a yoga on the beach session!

Our group had a very relaxing stress free week. All our needs were met with such kindness. Strangers are friends you haven’t met yet, and this crew are now our dear friends.April 2024
Captain Dick / Chef Kim I sincerely appreciate the adventure we experienced with you & Chef Kim. Being an Ocean / Beach enthusiast, one of the things I hadn't done was to go out on a CAT vacay!! Once out on the water with you & Kim the dream became a reality. More than I expected!! The problem will be --- now that I've gone with you both on Deep Blue, I wouldn't want to be with any other crew or on any other boat (CAT). Here's to our next trip................... PS - next time take less pics of Mark and more of ME 😂😎🌴⛵ Sincerely, KerryApril 2024
Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality! The boat is fantastic and everything was 5 star all the way!April 2024
Thank you so much for a trip of a lifetime! I’ve been dreaming about it for a long time and it totally exceeded my expectations! The cleanliness of the cabins, the attention to detail, the amazing food and spectacular anchorages were wonderful but the thing we were most impressed with was how you treated us like kings and queens, catering to our every need with love and genuine care. We can’t wait to come back!April 2024
Thank you for a wonderful week where we could unplug, relax, and escape from reality. Deep Blue is the most beautiful and coolest boat in all the places we’ve ventured to. Every single meal was absolutely delicious. The time and effort you put into our week so awesome was greatly appreciated. You two work perfectly together to make lasting memories for your guests, and we’re so blessed to have met you.May 2024
A week in paradise with amazing friends and fantastic crew who we now call friends! A spectacular boat that is beautifully decorated and cabins that make you feel like you’re at a luxury hotel. You two know how to make your guests feel special and pampered. We’ll absolutely be back soon!May 2024
