Crew Information

Chef & First Mate
Captain: Rubrio Joao Fernandes Basilio
Rubrio was fortunate to have grown up in the beautiful island of Madeira, surrounded by both sea and mountains. He was raised on sailing boats and developed a passion for everything both above and below the ocean’s surface, at a young age.
As a water sports enthusiast, he explored all aspects of sailing from professional racing to cruising slowly around the world. He then went on to motor yachts and ran vessels ranging from small power boats and monohulls to large super yachts. Rubrio now has over 25 years of professional captain and commercial charter experience. He is dynamic, sporty, a lover of animals, is easy going and always enters the room with a smile and leaves charter guests with an experience to last a lifetime.
Liza’s love for sailing started at a young age, spending summers on her parents’ sailboat in the Netherlands where she was born and raised. With her two brothers, she spent much of her free time doing adventure sports, either on the water or mountain climbing. Throughout her student years in Amsterdam and Greece, she worked in various hospitality jobs. After obtaining her Master’s degree, she started a 10-year corporate career as a Customer Experience Manager, consulting multinationals on how to create memorable experiences for their customers. After working as a chef on several owner charters in the Mediterranean and working as a crew chef on an Atlantic Crossing, Liza not only fell in love with the Virgin Islands but she also learned how much she loves creating memorable experiences through her food. She is a true believer that the way to people’s hearts is through their stomachs. After working as a sous-chef in the 2024 summer season in the Mediterranean and her Yacht Chef culinary training in London, she is excited to start the next charter season in the Caribbean.
