Crew Profile

Peter and Darcy Whitney are both originally from the Eastern Sierra's of California. They departed for Annapolis, Maryland to Florida over 17 years ago where they outfitted their 42 foot monohull with refrigeration, electronics, sails and much more. After 3 months of outfitting the boat, they left for 2 ½ years on their travel adventure that included the Bahamas, Caribbean, South American, Central America, and Mexico, and eventually arriving at San Diego, California.

They have been working in the charter industry over 14 years and with over 285 charters under their belt, have traveled with guests from Puerto Rico to Grenada operating both monohulls and catamarans. They have been with the 62-foot Robertson & Caine 'Sea Leopard' catamaran since 2004 and their goal is to share the islands that have become so much apart of their life.

Specializing on more of the relaxed, luxury side, they tailor to each charter's needs to ensure that your vacation is memorable for a lifetime . . . full of adventure, laughter, great food, and wonderful sailing.

Darcy has been working in restaurants and with chefs since she was 13 years old. She's been a waitress, hostess and restaurant manager. She worked for 5 years with one of the most prominent chef's in Southern California where she learned most of her culinary skills. Darcy is able to adapt to most requests from guests with regard to dietary restrictions, kid's preferences, gourmet and vegetarian foods.

She learned to sail from her husband, Peter, and enjoys being the 1st mate. Darcy will help you learn a bit of sailing or if you chose to sit back and relax, she'll ensure that all of your needs are being met from cocktails under sail to going for a good hike. Darcy enjoys a great book, working out, swimming, hiking and rock climbing.
