Crew Profile
David and Emily met and married on the beautiful island of Kauai. There, they were flourishing, David working as a finish carpenter on luxury estates and Emily cooking as a private chef. Every afternoon when they would get off work and see the ti leaves swaying, they’d race down to Hanalei Bay to take their Nacra 20 out for a zip thru the water. Soon after saying, “ I do”, they bought a 44’ Kelly Peterson, a classic ocean going vessel. They quickly closed down shop, moved off of Hawaii, and began prepping the boat to head south to Mexico. They took off from San Diego in December 2018 and began their adventure of a lifetime. Sailing down the primitive coasts of Baja, where all you see is brown and blue to Zihuatanejo Mexico, where they passed the March 2019 shut down on a secluded island with 5 other boats. They’ve surfed the coasts, fished big game, and even seen sea monsters! Their biggest challenge was crossing by themselves to Hawaii, the longest ocean passage in the world. It was 21 days of riding a roller coaster and they were hooked! They returned by passing under the Golden Gate Bridge on a clear, cloudless morning with no other boats around. Now, they are based full time in Mexico, cruising in the winter months and developing their property in the summer. Expect to see some flavor and spice on your plate!
David grew up in a boat yard in Oceanside, CA. He moved to Hawaii when it was time for a fresh start. Hawaii is known to either accept you or throw you out, and it welcomed him with open arms. He raced on Olson 30s in beer car races and across the treacherous Kauai channel to Oahu. He worked on stunning homes with vistas of the ocean. His sense of adventure and charging attitude will keep your trip moving forward! He is always trolling lines off the back and loves to reel in dinner.
Emily moved to Hawaii from Jackson, WY, where she was running an all organic and vegan bakery. It was like a light bulb going off when she learned of private chefing..as if “AH! This is what I’m supposed to do!” After a tasting trial at the head concierge’s house, her career took off. Her inspiration comes from sourcing the most beautiful ingredients she can find. She loves going to farmers markets and meeting other people passionate about creating high vibrancy foods.
We look forward to sharing our stories and learning about yours during our charter together. Feel free to kick back and relax or get involved and learn more about sailing and fishing from us. No matter your style, we will teach you our motto…”We out here living our best life!”

Charter Yacht LADY CATRON Guest Reviews
July 2023
Emily & David, Thank you so much for the most wonderful vacation! We all had the time of our lives! The food and drinks were amazing. Emily really outdid herself to make sure everyone was happy with the food and trust me my kids can be very picky! David was such a good sport with the kids as well. He snorkeled, played games, jumped at Willy T's and was always super patient the whole time! We hope we can come back to vacation with y'all again! Until next time, Stacy, Howard, Raegan and Caroline.July 2023
Emily and David, at my age there are few things I can call memorable and out of the ordinary. This trip has definitely been one of those. The food, amenities, service and always positive disposition are top notch. During this trip there were also a few firsts. Marlin fished in the sea for the first time, I was able to stand on a paddle board and I had my first and few painkillers. Thanks for everything and make sure to contact us when you visit PR.July 2023
David and Emily, you have surprised us with your amazing was of using healthy tasty products. We loved every single meal. David, thanks for making everything so easy and fun. You guys are great and I hope you have amazing new adventures!Jult 2023
Thanks for a wonderful experience - this was my first boating experience and I enjoyed it so much. I hope it is not my last. Both of you took care of every detail. I loved all the vegetarian food! I hope to see you again on another trip.July 2023
Thank you for making this 60th birthday a very special one for these guys. We wish you the best in the future and never stop having fun with each other. You have friends in Puerto Rico whenever you visitJune 2023
David and Emily How to begin to describe our experience. We are all first timers and it was amazing intro to a wonderful vacation. You were both excellent hosts! Thank you for being so accommodating and helpful. Chef Emily, the food was over the top great! Every bite was so delicious! The boat was great. Thank you for being such great guides at each stop. We enjoyed every minute. Thanks for the shopping tips! Oh and the cocktails were spectacular! We appreciate honest at each stop in guiding us on our hikes. So in closing, what started out as a polite introduction turned into a friendship. Until next time "Conch-a-doodle-doo!"April 2023
I just wanted to reach out to let you know what an amazing vacation we had aboard the Lady Catron last week! Every aspect of the entire trip was perfection! I am sure that all of your crews are great. However David and Emily were absolutely exceptional!!!!! By the beginning of day two they were like family. Every day was a new adventure. And I haven’t even mentioned the food yet. Every meal was absolutely perfect! It was amazing to observe Emily deliver 5 star meals in such a confined spaceMarch 2023
Wow – what an amazing trip! Loved everything – sailing – the water – bubbly pool, VG baths – snorkeling. You hospitality was wonderful, the food was delicious. We will never forget this spectacular trip and hope to do it again.March 2023
David and Emily, thank you for your hospitality. Our vacation exceeded our expectation. Every day was a new adventure. Emily..your culinary genius was amazing. Your creations were not only visually beautiful but delicious. I will always remember the 'I spy'!! This trip is definitely a repeat!March 2023
This was our 1st time on a sailboat for a week...the water so clear and smooth, our last day at sea was a little wavy, but our crew did a great job. Our crew was laid back and fun. They did a wonderful job the whole week!March 2023
David and Emily, Time sure flies when you're having fun doing all the things! You both helped create the perfect trip and overall experience we hoped to make 18 months ago when planning began. Many thanks for all the insights and personal touches that ensured a great time was had by all. We gave BVI's all we had in us and look forward to doing it all over again...so stay tuned!March 2023
This was such an amazing trip! We really enjoyed every minute. All of the snorkeling was definitely a highlight. Especially seeing the shark and eagle ray. Everything was beautiful and every meal was delicious! This time to slow down and relax and enjoy being together was just what we needed. Definitely a trip we will be talking about for a long time. Thanks for a wonderful week! Cheers! Thank you so much for an amazing week! I loved paddle boarding and swimming. The islands were beautiful! ThanksFebruary 2023
Emily and David, Thank you for an amazing week! Your mastery in the kitchen and at the helm made us feel safe and satisfied the entire time. Especially for a group of new sailors and young kids. Your patience and enthusiasm while answering a million questions about sailing, Lady Catron, and the BVI was greatly appreciated as well. From the Baths to Bitter End Yacht Club and Foxy's to Willy T's the destinations blew away our expectations. And on the naturalist side of things, from dolphins to nurse sharks and eagle rays to Tarpons the wildlife was out of this world. And on the adventuring side of things, wing foiling, SUPing, mega chillin, catching bonitos, and trying to catch tarpon, everything was just the right speed and intensity! And the food, oh the food! From omelettes to nutella banana desserts, lobster lunch, and fish tacos, everything was to die for and just the right amount and timing! And thanks again for accommodating a very particular eater. We cant wait to start planning our next trip back in the BVI's and we'll be sure to recommend you two and Lady Catron to all of our friends. Hope to stay in touch! - Jason, Emily, Ari, Ava and Cara.January 2023
Spending a week with David & Emily was so much more than we could have expected. The islands are beautiful and need to reviewing. The real attraction was watching Captain David sail Lady Catron. From pulling out of the marina to playing Gilligans Island theme song during a little rain shower we knew we were in good hands. His expertise and care for Lady Catron were evident in everything he did. His care for us was evident as well, from keeping us up to date on our sailing plans, our island hopping and the snorkeling adventures ahead of us. He kept the toys and snorkeling gear always at the ready. Chef Emily was just as impressive in Lady Catron's stocked kitchen. She prepared with ease and served with joy. She was great at accommodating our various food choices and preferences. We certainly felt silly with all our remarks with each bite but we couldn't help ourselves. Each dish was unique and delicious and deserving of praise. She also knew how to keep the party going with the extensive bar and fun drinks. Together David and Emily make a great team, and of course Lady Catron. This was a special trip for our family, one that will be one of our best! I loved that we were all together and all our decisions were made for us and our cares met. Forever grateful for this week.December 2022
I have tried writing this email so many times but still can’t seem to find the words to express HOW INCREDIBLE our trip was! I could not have even imagined that the trip could have gone as amazing as it did. The sights were amazing, the boat was perfection, our experiences made lifelong memories, but really it was Emily and David that made this trip for us. The hospitality was second to none and our time with them on Lady Catron will go down as officially the best trip we have ever had - at least until we come back and do it all over again :) Based on the responses from the friends with us and the friends that just saw our pictures, it sounds like we are bound to plan more trips in the future! I can’t David and Emily enough for this perfect trip.December 2022
We had a blast - far exceeded any and all expectations. The boat was amazing but David and Emily absolutely made the trip epic! Already planning trip #2!November 2022
We've been delighted to be with you on this first trip. For most of us this has been our first experience on this kind of adventure and you two and this boat were the perfect match.
