Captain: Thomas Foster
Chef/First Mate: Nicola Alberts (Previously on Reach)
Born and raised in Cape Town, Tom has spent the last 5 years working at sea. After graduating from university with a degree in construction management, Tom decided that sailing the high seas seemed like a more exciting way to spend his time. With experience ranging from 40ft day boats sailing the South African coastline to 110ft sailing super-yachts blasting across the Mediterranean and Ionian seas, Tom has gained critical experience to provide his guests the highest level of enjoyment!
When not sailing, you can probably find Tom somewhere around the world driving (& fixing) his 1982 converted camper-van
Nicola grew up in Cape Town, where her love for food was nurtured in the kitchen alongside her father, learning the art of preparation, presentation, and creating unforgettable dining experiences. Surrounded by the ocean and mountains, she has always been drawn to adventure, new challenges, and the joy of bringing people together over great food.
Originally studying Environmental Sciences, Nicola soon realized her true passion lay in the culinary world. This led her to pursue a career in hospitality, which transitioned to working as a chef on yachts in the Mediterranean.
More recently she has been running charters here in the Virgin Islands.
Whether sourcing fresh ingredients in remote locations or ensuring seamless service for guests, Nicola thrives on delivering warm, attentive hospitality with a focus on quality and creativity. Passionate about fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared cuisine, Nicola takes pride in crafting menus tailored to her guests’ preferences, ensuring every meal is a highlight of their journey.
Tom and Nicola can’t wait to welcome you aboard Sea Dog and give you the experience of a vacation of a lifetime!
Chef Nicola's Guest Reviews
Perfect Chef Nicola.Words are truly not adequate to express how very much we have enjoyed this week aboard. Evening cocktails and appetizers, amazing meals, incredible sunsets and stunning views.
Every day has been unique with touches that only an experienced crew like you could plan. Knowing that we were in your capable hands only added to an EXTREME sense of relaxation!
The girls (10 & 12) have gained a new appreciation for independence, trying new things and living without electronics!
Thank you for the time of our lives - we already miss you - until we meet again.

Captain and Chef Nicola
What an adventure! Thank you for keeping us safe through the wind and waves. We enjoyed every moment of the food, boat, sun and water.
Swimming with the tarpon at night and sea turtles on our private beach in Caneel Bay was epic.
Nicola - the food was insanely delicious! Every bite should be in a 5 star restaurant. You have a real talent and I know your father would be proud. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
Thank you for making our trip one for the history books! We were able to relax and enjoy every moment because we were in the best of hands.

Dear Nicola
What an amazing week we have had aboard! It has truly been a spectacular vacation in every way. Experiencing the BVI's was one of the most unique and special vacations of our lives. Nicola - your culinary masterpieces delighted us at every meal.
Thank you for one of the most beautiful, dynamic and relaxing weeks of our lives!
We will always remember our BVI experience with you fondly.
With love,
Cheryl and Steven G., Jack P. and Kathleen B.
*****************************
As I read through this guest journal, it is obvious that you are special to many people. You are so genuine! Thank you will never really say how appreciative we both are for your hospitality, but thank you for everything. You both entertained and catered to our group, it seems to come naturally to you.
I know the preparation it takes to do this to such a high standard is immense, and again, thank you.
The places you took us to and the experiences we shared will not be forgotten. And the food....nobody will forget the artful presentation and the tastes of EVERY meal.
If you ever get the urge to visit Michigan and experience the Great Lakes, you are welcome in our home.
Thank you both for EVERYTHING!

Nicola was splendid! She was always beaming and happy, making delicious food with beautiful presentations. She was always there if you needed something—helpful, kind, and attentive. She catered to everyone’s needs and even recommended great spots on land to eat.
*****************************
Nicola was incredible. She cooked us unbelievable meals every day, assisted with making bookings for events and activities on the islands, and was always so kind! We absolutely loved her.
*****************************
Nicola was an amazing hostess who took care of everyone on the boat. She was also a fantastic cook, and her stunning food presentations made every meal special.
****************************
WOW. Nicola makes the best and most beautiful food. She anticipated our needs before we even knew them ourselves. We loved her cooking so much that we asked for all the recipes! Nicola is super sweet and funny, and we couldn’t have asked for a better host.

Captain Tom's Guest Reviews
Tom is an amazing captain. Such a good character and sweet person to be around. I don’t know what was better, his expertise of sailing or the vibe he brought to the group. Never would I assume it was his first week! I would highly recommend him.***************************
Tom was fantastic – highly skilled as a captain and a very chill and friendly guy who really put in the effort to make sure everyone on our yacht had a great time. I would absolutely request Tom as my captain for a future yacht week trip.
*****************************
Tom was the perfect captain. He moored the boat so gracefully and kept everyone safe and happy and made sure everyone had a great time! We could not have asked for a better captain.
***************************
Tom was energetic and enthusiastic the whole week. He worked amazingly together with his chef and his energy spread through everyone one of us on the boat. Tom always checked in with the daily plan and gave us options for the day (swim, snorkel stops, etc.) He made us feel safe throughout the journey and shared his passion for sailing with us, teaching and answering all our questions. He was always available day and night when we needed him with a smile. We all felt very lucky to have him on board and would recommend him to everyone!
*******************************
Tom was a fantastic captain! He was super friendly and an easygoing guy. He would always ask our group if we wanted to stop for a swim (he knew we loved our morning swims) and prioritized this. He was highly knowledgeable and informative about the trip and what to expect. He even involved us in the sailing and taught us a bit about how it all works! Tom did a fantastic job, and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

This Vacation Will Never Be Topped!
I fear our trip to the BVI might never be topped! Capt Al and Iona were perfect hosts to welcome us to the islands for the first time. We all agree if you can do one vacation - do this one! Capt Al kept us away from the crowds and still managed to show us everything the islands have to offer. Iona's cooking was second to none. Her homemade meals made each dinner/lunch/breakfast memorable and delicious. All that is left is the check the calendar to see when we can book a return trip! Thank you for everything!"Bayless Y. - March 25'
You Two Made Our Trip
Best trip ever! I could not have asked for a better experience. This is my 'last' spring break with my family as I am a senior in high school, and it was perfect. Al and Iona were so welcoming and made everything perfect for how we like to vacation. I will really miss this trip but I have no doubt we will come back again! Al and Iona, thank you for everything, you two made our trip!"Phillips Y (18)
You Want This Trip To Last Forever!
Thank you for everything! This was the kind of trip you want to last forever. Al and Iona made everything so easy and comfortable on board, and made us all rethink what life is like on the water and just how great it can be! There is nothing I would change about this trip but I just wish there was more time to spend on Sea Dog and listen to more stories of Al and Iona's life.AB Y (16)
Fantastic Hosts!
Al and Iona were fantastic hosts from their friendliness to attention to detail they display a driven desire to please that is truly second to none.Every meal was perfection and the presentation was absolutely beautiful!!
They had endless ideas and plans to make sure we were thoroughly entertained, although just visiting with and getting to know them was very enjoyable.
These two make a wonderful team and we would highly recommend this trip to anyone with a desire for adventure!
Larry and Viginia
One For The Books!!
Thank you Captain Al and Iona for making our spring break trip one for the books! Since we'd never chartered before, we were uncertain about the kids being able to handle it! To our delight they absolutely loved every minute. Every day we heard "this is the best trip ever", "I wished everyone cooked like this"We played, swam and made so many new and special experiences, so its safe to say its a trip we will never forget!
Thank you for the attention and care you put into curating the itinerary and food, and for doing so on such short notice!!!
We had the best time making memories this week and can't wait to come back!

Ended Up as Family
We started this adventure with captain and crew but ended up as family.From our first conversation prior to our trip in the mid west, we knew the trip was going to be fun. Captain Al always found a hidden gem and Iona blessed up with UNBELIEVABLE meals. Our family had an amazing time on Sea Dog.
We spent our week at the best spots with the best crew, our family will be back.
Joe, Emily, Gabi, and Belle.
Forever Friends!
When we met Iona and Al, we immediately had forever friends on this trip.Al took us to the best spots and Iona (aka chef extraordinaire) would always join our fun.
The BVI was a blast but especially because of the hosts we had. They shared drinks, dreams, memories and fun times.
Adios to Jost, until Christmas 2026!
The B Sisters, New Years 2025
Just Super Hosts!
Sailing the BVI has been our family's dream trip for quite a long time.Our nine days on the Sea Dog fulfilled all that we hoped for in this experience, and we couldn't be happier!
From the time we stepped foot on the boat, Al and Iona made us feel at home. Al served up the perfect itinerary with amazing mooring locations and expert judgement of the sea and the weather.
Great spots in quiet coves, provided calm waters to snorkel and swim. We maximised our days with adventures on Virgin Gorda and Anegada, mixing in the best of land and sea.
We were so impressed with Al's knowledge of the area and skills as a captain!
On board, Iona served up amazing meals and delightful cocktails. We eagerly awaited each meal and were always delighted with the variety and presentation.
But as good as the sailing and the food were, it was their company that made the trip special. Lots of fun and laughter, they quickly became not just super hosts but part of our family!
We cannot wait until the next visit!"
Jon, Susan, Lola, & Anneliese, Christmas 2024
Surpassed My Expectations
This was a fantastic week! Our Captain Al and Chef Iona were delightful, entertaining, extensively knowledgeable, kind, and so capable. They made us feel so welcome and cared for! This was my third trip to the BVI and this trip surpassed my expectations! The boat itself was so comfortable and well organised, and our visits to different islands, bars and restaurants were fun and varied. We could be as busy or laid back as we wanted.The food was incredible, varied, and always interesting, fresh and wonderful.
Thank you Iona and Al for a wonderful week.

Five Star Itinerary
An excellent week which started off with Captain Al making me jump off the roof of a 'bar boat'. 14 bars later and I am still alive! Seriously though this was a well thought out, brilliantly executed week of interesting cruising and eating. Al and Iona were first rate hosts who produced a five star itinerary. Iona's cooking is superb, and she reacted to our wishes and foibles with good humour and real talent. We would recommend Sea Dog and Al and Iona to anyone without exception! Great memories.Bruce S.
Magical Week
This was a fantastic week! The welcome we got from Al and Iona as we got out of the taxi from the airport set the scene for the week. The boat was lovely, comfortable, and stylish. Al is a very capable sailor and has a huge knowledge of the area. Iona is a superb host and chef. The BVI's are varied and beautiful, and Al took us to beautiful varied islands, with fun bars and shops. Lobster on Anegada was amazing and the little tour Al and Iona took us on was unforgettable. A magical week. Thanks guys!Amanda
Full Marks!
Full marks to both the Captain and Chef!This has been a lovely trip.
Both Al and Iona have been wonderful.
Thank you so much.

By Far The Best
I've sailed the BVI many times, and our experience with Sea Dog was by far the best. Captain Al and Iona were exceptional hosts , making us feel special from the moment we arrived. Captain Al took us to hidden gems and the best local resturaunts and bars. Iona's cooking was amazing, accommodating everyone's preferences and restrictions.The Sea Dog is spacious with multiple lounging areas, perfect for relaxing or enjoying group moments. This trip was unforgettable. Highly recommend!

42 Shades of Blue Caribbean Waters
My husband and I just returned from a glorious week aboard Sea Dog, with Captain Mike and Julie. It was the experience of a lifetime.The boat was grand, and immaculate. The BVIs and USVI were spectacular. Who can resist those 42 shades of blue Caribbean waters.
But the best was Captain Mike and Julie. They made this trip all the more special. Captain made sure we visited all the places on our wish list and got us there safely and with a smile. And Julie! What a surprise at every hand-crafted meal, from homemade icecream to perfectly cooked sea bass. I regret our dinners on shore because I was sure we were missing something better on board.
They made our trip truly the best experience of a lifetime.
Magical
We will never forget this adventure. The entire week was magical. We anticipated this for over a year and you made it come alive beyond our expectations.There are few inflection points in life - THIS was one of them.
Thank you for being part of our DREAM!

Can It Ever Get Any Better!
Our last evening we stayed in Caneel Bay on St. John, the end of a glorious week of adventure, beauty and fun.This was our first time to the Virgin Islands, the first time on a catamaran and I find it hard to imagine it can ever get better than this.
The natural beauty of the islands can only be seen in their entirety from the water. The many deserted coves and beaches, where we walked in the soft sand and snorkeled in the crystal clear water, were an up-close and immersive experience second to none.
Our son loved the underwater sea scooters and the wake board. Our oldest daughter would go out on the stand up paddleboards, and our youngest daughters jumped from the upper deck in between relaxing and handing out.
Mike was the perfect boat captain. Everything on board worked well, there was plenty of water for showers and all the toys and activities were already for use. He sailed us to the best of the islands, taking into account the weather and waves so we had a comfortable and enjoyable trip. On the longer stretches Miked showed anyone who was interested how to sail the catamaran, how to go fast and avoid the other ships and boats while getting to where we wanted to go. Mike led our weeklong vacation while being kind, pleasant, and confidentially in command. This certainly made it easy for us to relax and enjoy the experience.
As Mike led the boat, Julie led the accommodations and especially the kitchen. meals were the highlights of each day! The quantity, quality and presentation of breakfast, lunch, snack and especially dinner was wonderful. Juslie is an outstanding chef. The cuisine was fresh and flavourful while at the same time being hearty, healthy and a joy to behold!
She kept the living area neat, clean and attractive!
While exploring both the American and British Virgin Islands we felt like we were in a floating luxury hotel. Every day provided a new and unique experience and the transit from island to island was an ever changing seascape of stunning natural beauty.
Every person in our family rates this as one of our best vacations ever. The only thing that might make it better was if we had a small convoy of 2 to 4 catamarans shared with friends and family, each crewed by a couple as thoughtful and capable as Mike and Julie.
Thank you!
Blessed

The work you do is so important and so appreciated. Just wanted to express our deep gratitude for the dedicated work you do day after day. Because of you Mike and Julie, our time on Sea Dog was one of the best vacation ever.Wonderful Experience
Thank you for a wonderful experience. The meals were amazing. We appreciate your hospitality and look forward to another trip soon!Championed This Entire Memory For Our Family
GUEST REVIEW TO BROKERWe arrived home safe and sound last night. I wanted to let you know what an amazing time our family had on the SeaDog. We were treated like family by Nick and Kate and our son absolutely adores Nick. He spent so much time helping Nate fish and educating him on things, that we saw Nate come out of his shell and have great moments of dialog with Nick. We couldn’t be more happy than this.
Kate prepared amazing food all week and waited on us hand and foot.
The SeaDog was very clean and accommodating.
We couldn’t have had a better crew. We highly recommend Nick and Kate, they championed this entire memory for our family.
Thank you.!!!!
BROKER PROVIDED REVIEW
Yacht Name: Sea DogRating of Yacht & Crew: 5
Was the yacht comfortable and clean?
Yes very good layout and very clean.
Was the yacht well ventilated?
Very - we kept the doors open during the day and the AC was nice and cold at night
Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
Our crew was absolutely amazing. Captain Nick was the perfect balance of fun and safe. I knew about 30 mins in to being on the boat that he had our safety as his number one priority and that he knew sailing inside and out. He took us to great spots and when he wasn’t busy sailing he was busy cleaning up, getting toys out, helping Kate, or answering any of our million questions we were always throwing at him. He fished with us every night and that was definitely a highlight of the trip. Kate…no words. I think I speak for all of us when I say we wanted to take her home with us! She was the sweetest, kindest hostess we could ever imagine. Her food was delicious and her drinks were even better! She worked so hard the week we were there and you could tell she loved every minute of it. It would be hard to imagine doing this trip with anyone else.
Was the food good and well presented?
Yes the food was amazing. Every meal was delicious and our Chef, Kate, took into consideration all of the likes/dislikes we each told her about.
Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
We can’t imagine a better time than the one we had onboard Sea Dog with Kate and Nick. Every aspect was perfect - from the planning with VI Sailing to the trip itself. The boat was beautiful and safe and our crew took the best care of us. It was hard to leave on the last day.
Cruising Area
Did you like the area you chartered in?
Yes! We were so glad we were about to visit both the USVI and BVI in one trip.
Our Crew Was Absolutely Amazing
We had the best week ever on Sea Dog with Captain Nick and Chef Kate. Every aspect of the trip far exceeded any expectations that we had. The boat was beautiful. Very spacious and the lay out was perfect for our group of 6 to be together or spread out when needed. Our absolute favorite feature of the boat was the flybridge. It was where we ended every day and I can’t imagine being on a boat without that space.Our crew was absolutely amazing. Captain Nick was the perfect balance of fun and safe.

Absolute Best Way To See the USVI & BVI
We just returned home from a fabulous week aboard the Sea Dog. We were celebrating a couple of 40th birthdays with some dear friends! We could not have chosen a better boat and crew. Nick & Kate took the best care of us and made the week even that much better! They even joined in on our 80s theme night. 🙂 Loved getting to know them and would sail again with them in a heartbeat! Sea Dog was the perfect size for our group and we loved all of the snorkeling, SUP, and fishing! The sky bridge was my favorite spot for pre-dinner happy hour. This was the absolute best way to see the USVI & BVIs. We cannot wait to do it again!Unmatched hospitality!
