Our take: Salty Dog

Salty Dog offers a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living, making it a fantastic choice for guests looking to explore the Virgin Islands in comfort. The yacht’s design maximizes natural light with a wall of glass and skylights, while the four queen cabins each feature en-suite bathrooms for privacy. The covered forward cockpit provides a breezy retreat at anchor, and the flybridge, while uncovered underway, has custom pop-out shades for sun protection when needed. A standout feature is the lithium battery bank, which allows for quiet, generator-free air-conditioning at night—a rare luxury on a charter yacht.

The crew enhances the experience with their deep expertise and warm hospitality. Captain Jenine’s extensive local knowledge ensures guests discover the best anchorages, while Chef Luka’s Cordon Bleu training brings a refined culinary touch to every meal. With their combined skills and passion for adventure, Salty Dog delivers a well-rounded charter experience, perfect for those who appreciate great food, beautiful scenery, and thoughtful amenities.

MEET YOUR CREW:

Captain: Matt Field
Chef: Klarisse Jordaan

Step aboard and meet the dynamic duo behind your unforgettable charter experience.


Born and raised on South Africa’s Wild Coast, Matthew grew up with the ocean as his playground. His love for the sea began early, by age 12 he was already voyaging across the Indian Ocean, exploring the colorful shores of Madagascar, Thailand, and Malaysia. The following year, he was already working on sailing boats, combining his love for the sea with hands-on experience.
Now an RYA Yachtmaster with more than 13 years of yachting experience, Matthew has honed his skills sailing the rugged southern African coastline. Guests will find his calm, friendly nature and wealth of knowledge make him not only a capable captain, but also a welcoming host who ensures every journey is safe, smooth, and unforgettable.

Klarisse grew up on a farm in a small town in the middle of South Africa, where life was simple, hands-on, and full of flavor. She began cooking alongside my mom at the age of four, sparking a lifelong passion for food and hospitality. Although she doesn't have formal training, her skills have been shaped by real-world experience, curiosity, and a strong work ethic.

After finishing high school, Klarisse moved to Cape Town and quickly found her place in the hospitality scene. She worked as a bar manager and often stepped into the kitchen to help during busy services, gaining a deeper appreciation for teamwork, timing, and flavor. Her love of travel and adventure eventually led me into the world of yachting, where she worked as the sole stewardess aboard a 60ft yacht. That experience taught her resilience, precision, and how to create memorable experiences in unique and often demanding environments.

In her downtime, she enjoys staying active with regular workouts, discovering new places, and trying exotic and unusual foods. Klarisse also has a love for photography, especially capturing natural landscapes and spontaneous moments. While she is open-minded and easygoing, she is not a fan of jelly sweets or super long movies (the kind that feel like they need an intermission!).

She brings heart, hustle, and a creative edge to everything she does—and is always eager to learn more, try something new, and connect with people through shared experiences.

Matthew and Klarisse can't wait to share this amazing vacation and the Virgin Islands beautiful islands with you in this their second and third seasons respectively, in Caribbean. They will be your guides to an extraordinary charter experience aboard Salty Dog. Their passion, professionalism, and love of good living create the kind of atmosphere where every moment feels like a highlight.
