He ensures that every charter runs smoothly from start to finish, with every detail being accounted for. He is a Captain with tons of knowledge to share and enjoys the company of guests in the Bridge while they sail. Although he is adaptable to all types of charters, he naturally favors families as he has two daughters of his own - ages 8 and 19.

His passion is ‘go fast’ boating and spends most of his free time with other boaters in central Florida or driving around sports cars.

Words cannot possibly describe what an absolute incredible time that we had this past week.

The crew of Starship went above and beyond for every experience. The food, the activities, the tablescapes. Anything that they could make special, they did.

We are sad to leave this amazing crew and beautiful boat, but hope to be back soon.

***May, 2022***

Dear Sanaa,
please excuse the delay in getting this message to you about our latest charter on Starship185.
As you know this was our sixth time chartering with you and our first charter on the new Starship185. I must say that everyone was equally overwhelmed with joy and amazement at the new yacht. Captain Steve has put together an incredible crew that was completely in-tune with our group. The Service, friendliness and attention to detail in all aspects of the trip were impressive. The chef Lucie is no doubt one of the best chefs I have had the chance to cross paths with which was also echoed by one of our guests who is a renowned chef in the Montreal area. In all honesty, if I was on the Michelin star selection committee, I would give her and the whole experience a star. We are foodies at heart and our 12 days on Starship were like eating 3 meals a day at a Michelin starred restaurant. We were not served meals, we were served culinary greatness. Everyone looking forward to the day's culinary adventure.
Having Dave Ochs on board as our dive guide made our scuba diving world class. I put in 19 dives on this trip! With Starship having a great compressor setup on board along with the deck crew our scuba outings were seamless and always excellent. We even discovered a new wreck that we spent time exploring over a series of dives. Captain Steve even managed to anchor Starship right on top of the Nasau blue hole where the Turtles and silky sharks were there for us.
The yacht is fabulous, accommodations perfect and the stewards under the expert tutelage of Bea fantastic. Her attention to detail and organisation skills were notable and appreciated and we had a lot of fun.

On behalf of all the guests, xxx and myself, please convey our most grateful appreciation to everyone.
