Captain
Crew
Brief
Alan (chef, captain, dive master)
Alan's love of the water started early, on family sailing vacations on Cape Cod and Lake Huron in the North Channel, where you can find some of the best fresh water sailing in the world. Alan spent over 20 years in the restaurant & bar industry in Canada where he learned the fine art of cooking in some of the country's finest restaurants. Alan also worked as a bartender and club manager before opening his own nightclub in the Market area of the Nations Capital. Eventually Alan decided to trade the hustle and bustle of city life for the warm waters and relaxed paced of the Caribbean. Alan is now in his 15th season of chartering in the Virgin Islands and has learned all of her secrets to make your week the most amazing vacation ever.
Randeen (chef, captain)
Randeen grew up in the chilly prairie lands of the far north. One ridiculously cold day she thought to herself "there must be a warmer place to live" , so she quit her job, bought a ticket and moved to the islands (it helped that her children were grown and she had a job that she could do online). Randeen has worn many hats throughout her working career- but her favorite is now a beach hat. Randeen's experience in corporate event panning and customer service guarantees that even the smallest details of your vacation aboard Free Ingwe will be well planned for. Randeen's menu is best described as Caribbean comfort food- tried and true meals with island twist. She expertly adapts meals and menu's to meet a variety of dietary considerations. When not in the galley Randeen happily acts as cruise director/ tour-guide leading the way on island hikes, beach bar reconnaissance and retail therapy missions.
Ritz (Admiral)
Ritz joined the Free Ingwe team 6 years ago and has been living his best life ever since. This hypoallergenic fluff ball enjoys long walks on the beach, dingy rides and napping in the sunshine. Like most of our guests pancake day is his favorite day of the week.
Crew are fully vaccinated for COVID 19.

Please contact us for a proposal that details the yacht’s availability, individual pricing based on the number of guests in your party and particular dates, as well as the list of the inclusions and exclusions for that particular yacht.

Please contact us for a proposal that details the yacht’s availability and individual pricing based on the number of guests in your party, as well as the list of the inclusions and exclusions for that particular yacht.
This Yacht offers a “Plus Expenses” Rate:
Included are the Yacht and its onboard equipment as well as the Captain, Chef and Crew’s services.
Excluded are food and beverages, fuel for the yacht and its tender, any dockage, airport transfers costs, onshore excursions and tours, as well as any cruising permits, licenses and other charter related expenses. Crew gratuity, although optional is customary at 15% - 20% of the charter rate for the Caribbean and 10% - 15% for the Mediterranean.
Advanced Provisioning Allowance:
For "Plus Expenses" charters, yachts request an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), which is generally estimated at 20% - 25% of the base charter fee for sailing yachts (catamarans and monohulls) and at 30%-35% for motor yachts. The APA essentially creates a bank account for the Captain to purchase provisions, fuel, dockage, food, beverages, bar, and other consumables on the charterer's behalf. The Captain will keep all receipts and manage a running balance of the account, so that expenditures can be checked at any time. Any amount not used will be refunded at the end of the charter. If during the charter the costs have exceeded the collected APA, then additional funds will be required for the outstanding bills. All purchases are transparent and nothing is marked up. The APA is used purely for the charterer's provisions and charter-related expenses.
