Crew Profile
Amy & Biff have been sailing together since 2003 when they first met on a beach in Greece. They were supposed to meet at the ferry port of sleepy Porto Heli but Biff forgot to pick Amy up and she found him instead at the bar on the beach, entertaining his guests! That was the start of something special and they have worked, lived & sailed together ever since. Having always worked in the marine tourist industry they love meeting strangers who at the end of their vacation leave as friends!
Biff
Captain Biff learned to sail at the Cub Scouts at a tender age and was hooked! As soon as he was old enough to teach sailing he packed his bags & found his way to the Mediterranean coast of France to start his first overseas instructor job. Working his way around France and Spain he finally settled down in Greece running his own sailing school on the chic Greek Riviera. Cold winters of Europe called him to work in Kenya briefly before settling in the BVI’s running luxury charters in warm waters!
Amy
Having learned to cook at the age of 9 so she could watch ‘neighbours’ (Aussie Soap) on TV, Amy added windsurfing & then sailing to her interests after finishing university in order to travel. First working in Turkey, Italy & France Amy finally moved to Greece & met Biff. Wherever she travels she picks up local recipes and cooking techniques, which she refined at the renowned Ashburton & River Cottage cookery schools, both in Devon, UK. Fresh, seasonal & local produce are her favourite ingredients put together in a fusion of worldwide flavours for all to enjoy!
Between them, Amy & Biff have the experience & knowledge to steer you a course to a truly memorable vacation. With their water sports background they are able to teach even the most reluctant swimmers, sailors, paddle boarders to confidently make the most of their time on the water regardless of age. Their years working in family orientated resorts in Europe also lend them to be dab hands at arranging fun and relaxing family charters. Known for their flexibility & competence, your wish is their command.
Piers Reid
A third crew member, Piers Reid, rounds out the team. Piers holds a RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore Sail endorsement. He has been sailing professionally around the world since 2014. Piers is happy to lend a hand wherever needed; guiding you on a hike ormaking your favorite cocktail just to name a few.
Crew are fully vaccinated for Covid 19

Charter Yacht AMAYA Guest Reviews
Happy New Year - with kids
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the most incredible week on the most luxurious boat with a world class captain and crew. This is our third charter and it was by far the nicest boat and the very best service. The captain,was so accommodating and bent over backward to meet our every need as was the outstanding chef. Not only were her meals delicious and presented beautifully, she listened 100% to our pre-charter menu requests. Tihana makes an excellent pina colada and is wonderful with kids. The kids loved cooking and hanging with the crew.Simply The Best
Dear Amaya March 26 2022 This past week has been perfect. We could not have felt more welcomed each and every day. Every meal was delicious – so much that our 11 and 13 year old, found themselves not only trying everything but eating it too. We have never taken a trip like this before and plan on making it annual. The BVI’s are simply beautiful . Amaya has all the frys. Everyone loved the Seabobs. To say we admire Bruce, Begona and Jess is simply an understatement. They are simply the best! We feel so blessed to have gotten a week with them. They made our trip for sure. Thank you & and much love. Kath, Scott, Will and Emma - ConnecticutBVI So much fun exploring
Dear Amaya, Thank you so much for an incredible vacation. The children had so much fun exploring this beautiful catamaran. The adults enjoyed it very much as well. The frozen drinks and the food were incredible as well. Exploring the BVI with the Amaya crew was an overall amazing experience. We hope to be back very soon. The Acosta and Carmony familyBVI Beyond all our expectations!
Thank You Thank You Thank You! This was an incredible week mostly because your hospitality onboard made it so special. From the meals to the activities to the local knowledge to the sailing skills, it was beyond all our expectations. The boat is beautiful and the BVI are Paradise… but without this stellar crew it would only have been half as good. You three make AMAYA the best Charter yacht in the Caribbean. Thank you!

9th - 15th June 2023 BVI
Dear Amaya Team, Aka Biff, Amy & Piers, Well, what a fabulous time we’ve had. This has been a very special week with great friends in a place in the world we’d never been to. We discovered paradise – The BVI’s, but not just an island paradise, a place that we’ve learned about thanks to your skills and enthusiasm in showcasing the best places to go – the best beaches, bars, restaurants, sand spits etc. But we’ve also experienced amazing Caribbean foods & flavors with the expert skills of Amy with culinary creations and Piers with his expert cocktail skills, table décor etc!! Biff was so enthusiastic in everything he did – his love of yachts and sailing seems to be as much as his love of wanting everyone to experience the joy of being on the water. He has imparted a huge amount of knowledge to us and shared his joy of the region. It's the care, diligence and genuine hospitality that’s been the best part of it all. We’ve felt like not only have all our needs been met but they’ve been over delivered upon & anticipated., And that’s what’s turned a fabulous sailing holiday into an incredible experience that would be hard to beat anywhere! Thank you! Thank you for your generosity of spirit, your enthusiasm and your professionalism in every aspect of what you do. Hugs to you all, Misha & Nigel Thank you, Biff, Amy & Piers, Best Crew Ever!!!! Best Cruise Ever!!!! Amaya-zing time! You work brilliantly together. Everything works flawlessly (or your group do brilliantly at making it look perfect!!!!) Your seamanship is so much fun to watch. Better still, over 3 seasons Amaya is in better condition and in much better care than she has ever been! Our family thoroughly enjoyed their week, Our friends thoroughly enjoyed their week and Nigel & Megan enjoyed both! Welcome to our family!!!! Thank you, George. Thank you for all of the amazing adventures, hikes, snorkelling & sailing/water sports. Thank you for all the amazing and beautiful arranged food and thank you for all the killer cocktails! Love Tanja. Dear Biff, Amy & Piers, Thank you for making this a trip of a lifetime. I felt extremely comfortable & safe and Jeff & I enjoyed all the wonderful activities. The service was wonderful and the food beyond incredible! It was lovely sleeping at night to the sound of the sea and the catamaran is in incredible shape! I would recommend this trip to anyone, and it was truly an enjoyable and peaceful experience!! Thank you for making this time so special for Jeff & I, Love Lots, Jeff & Colleen xoxox

Dear Biff, Amy & Piers, Thank you from the guests that keep coming back! You guys are THE BEST and this has been THE MOST AMAZING VACATION OF OUR LIVES! Lots of Owaha from Jackson Hole. Dear Amy, Biff & Piers, Where to begin??... We had the trip of a lifetime.

From the beginning, you made us feel welcome, comfortable and pampered. We will be planning our next visit and will be looking forward to being pampered again by you. All the Best, Your Jackson Hole Friends. Where to start? THANK YOU!!!!! Amy, Biff & Piers, you are without doubt THE BEST CREW EVER!

Christmas 2023
Dear Biff, Amy & Piers, Your collective ability to have us feel so very much “at home” during our splendid and extraordinary week with you on Amaya will remain with us forever. Your high regard for each other, demonstrated in how you relate to each other respectfully, confidently and with humor and compassion, sets the stage for what is possible when experiencing Amaya. We felt welcome and invited to engage our senses (including our sense of wonder) when experiencing sports, relaxing, meeting new people, drifting along a slow current in a snorkel or paddling through a mangrove garden. Pushing ourselves to kayak, water-ski, bush-whack, or paddleboard in quiet coves put smiles in our hearts and on our faces. Most of all, your responsiveness to our needs, the attention to detail, anticipating what we would enjoy, and preparing delicious, healthy food with care and love helped us feel connected to each other and to you. Spending Christmas with strangers is not easy. Working on Christmas is a sacrifice. We appreciate how generous you all are and how much you gave of yourselves. May you know, deeply, how much we appreciate you and how much we wish you the best for of everything as 2024 unfolds. We look forward to seeing you all again before too long and till then, being in touch. Love Rob & Dale
Elana & Family - Amaya - 29th Dec 2023 – 8th Jan 2024 BVI
