Ariel Thrasher - Born and raised in the British Virgin Islands, my connection to the ocean started early with sailing camps and surfing. In my teenage years, I had the unique opportunity to move to Thailand, where I completed my secondary education and gained a broader perspective on the world.

At 18, I returned home to the BVI and began my journey in the marine industry, taking on a variety of roles aboard local vessels and building hands-on experience along the way. Over time, I developed a strong foundation in seamanship, guest service, and yacht operations.

Now, as a captain, I take great pride in sharing the beauty of the BVI with guests guiding them through the islands and helping create unforgettable experiences on the water.

Matea Kosovic - My culinary journey began in the heart of my home of Croatia, where cooking and sharing meals with loved ones sparked my passion for food. Inspired by my mum's recipes, I developed a creative flair by adding my own unique twist to her dishes.

This early love for cooking set the foundation for my career. As I matured, my interest in health and fitness deepened, prompting me to pursue a Bachelor of Nutrition Science degree. This academic journey expanded my understanding of the intricate relationship between nutrition and culinary arts, fueling my passion even further.

I am dedicated to crafting balanced, healthy, yet delicious meals that not only nourish the body but also delight the senses.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard Stella Mare!
