Crew Profile

Meet the crew: Captain Aritz and Chef Ashlyn

Captain Aritz: Aritz lives for sailing and loves to share his passion for the sea with his guests. Born and raised in Spain, he spent his earlier years sailing and teaching kitesurfing around the world. After working as a kitesurfing instructor in Morocco, Egypt, the Netherlands, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines, he realized that the best destinations are accessible only by boat and shifted his focus to becoming a Captain. Aritz now has over 50,000 miles under his belt. With 10 Atlantic crossings, 6 as Captain, you could say he loves to sail. He has spent three charter seasons in Greece and three in The Bahamas. He loves to share adventures of sailing and kiting with people.

Chef Ashlyn: Ashlyn is a trained and experienced chef and kitchen manager who is enthusiastic about fine foods, yachting, healing, arts, traveling and building a career based on all of her interests. Ashlyn has been cooking with excitement and curiosity for 9+ years within the restaurant, hotel and charter yacht industry and takes great pleasure with combining her experience and skills to create unique and personalized menus for her charter guests.

Captain Aritz and Chef Ashlyn look forward to welcoming you onboard and creating unforgettable memories to last a lifetime!

Charter Yacht WIND CHASER I Guest Reviews

I will do this again!

"The boat and experience was absolutely stunning. Actually this was the best Holidya I have had in years and I'm very thankful to have had a chance to be a part of this amazing trip"

"All fantastic!"

"Really friendly. Amazing food. Crew couldn't do enough for us, particularly Lauren in respect of food/meals. Very flexible -always focused on ensuring we were having a great time".

Everyone is super amazing!

"Aritz is an amazing captain and always makes us feel safe. He has really great knowledge of the Bahamas and sailing in general. Lauren is incredible and makes sure everyone is totally comfortable and fed and had enough time on the water! Javier is the man he is always keeping the gear organized helping people learn more about kiteboarding and always there with the dingy for rescues if the wind dies, and he is an incredible photographer and kiteboarding instructor. Ale is an incredible person on the crew with is amazing kite coaching and video editing skills. These guys really know how to capture the moment! Anastasia and Lauren are amazing chefs and the food was delicious everyday from breakfast to snacks lunch and dinner! They are really an outstanding crew. I know it cannot be easy to keep an entire group of active kiteboarders fed for 10 days!"

A truly magical experience!

One of the most amazing experiences I've ever had, the locations, the boat, the incredible team, the fantastic activities and out of this world food make it something I will never forget. If you can go on a charter with these guys, you won't regret it!

A wonderful experience on a great boat with a lovely crew

We had an amazing experience. Beautiful boat - extremely comfortable, great food and a wonderful crew that couldn’t do enough to ensure we had a wonderful experience.

One of the best trips I’ve had :)

I had such an amazing and memorable trip. There were a range of activities to do - with something for everyone, yummy food, unbelievable destinations and such a lovely crew.

Amazing trip!

Best vacation ever! Boat, meals and crew were exceptional! We went last week and had perfect weather. Highly recommend!

Epic Trip!!

Amazing amazing trip!!! Crew was awesome with communication and daily briefing!! Food was fresh and cooked with love! On daily basis we was choosing the best fit activities for that day (and there was alot to choose from). Kiteboarding in exumas was mesmerized!! Soooooo beautiful!!! Can't wait to do it again!! Thank you to Captain and all the crew!! You guys really made that trip EPIC!! And you made my bday extra special this year!! Thank you!!

Super Amazing Kite Boarding, Diving and Sailing Experience

The activity line up is over the top. Windy days you kite and the rest of the time you get to dive, snorkel, e foil and relax. I have done my fair share of traveling and this trip checks all the boxes and creates a few new ones! We have been 2 times for 2 weeks and plan on going back annually!
