Meet Pepijn

Pepijn has been sailing for as long as he can remember. In fact, the first time he was put on a sailboat was as an infant sitting in a car seat, of course, being tied to a fender for safety purposes! Growing up, his love for sailing only grew stronger and by the time he was thirteen, he was cruising the North Sea on a small boat with his brother. Yachting isn’t just a hobby for Pepijn, it’s a lifelong passion. Over the years, he has collected various sailing licenses and certifications, and has turned his love for the sea into a professional career. During his time at university, he spent his summers sailing the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, taking international trips all over Europe. After realizing that a traditional desk job was not where he was suited, he decided to follow his heart and make sailing his full-time career. This decision has led him on some incredible adventures, and he is thrilled to be sharing his love for the sea with guests. He looks forward to creating unforgettable memories on the water together.

Meet Nicole

Nicole has been immersed in the world of hospitality and catering for the past decade. Cooking has always brought her into her most happy place; whether it’s whipping up a feast for friends and family, or hosting lively dinner parties. There is something magical about bringing people together over a great meal. Nicole has also been sailing since she was a child. Growing up, she spent countless hours on the water with family and friends, and quickly became the go-to person for creating delicious meals onboard. This passion for cooking at sea led her to spend any amount of spare time she had within these last few years to sail around the Mediterranean and gain her culinary skills professionally. This work aboard yachts eventually inspired her to quit her full-time job managing a hospitality company and follow her dream of becoming a full-time chef in the beautiful Caribbean Islands. She can’t wait to share her love for food and hospitality and welcomes guests to join her for some amazing culinary adventures and excellent dining experiences!

Guest Reviews

"My family and I have sailed in the BVI’s for 3 generations…occasionally crewed but mostly bareboat. So I feel my relative experience gives me the right to say - this is the way to do it!! The boat is beautiful, clean, spacious and well organized. There are multiple places to gather, both sunny and in the shade. But the crew were even better than the boat. Anytime Captain Pepjin could adjust course to meet our needs (wants 😉) he did. Captain spent tons of time talking to my children (who were not always well behaved) and teaching them about sailing. Chef Nicole was amazing. The food blew us away. Everything is homemade, fresh and thoughtful. She cut apples for my kids multiple times a day, made 8 different things for breakfast to keep everyone happy, and still made everything look and taste Michelin eligible. The welcome-back-to-the-boat cocktail after an outing is still my favorite. Lots more to say but overall the boat and the crew made this experience one we will never forget!"

"Pepijn & Nicole - Thank you for an outstanding trip! We really enjoyed the snorkeling; the quiet secluded bay where we anchored overnight and, of course, the AMAZING food. It was lovely getting to know you both and we hope our paths may cross again."

"I spent my 60th birthday with my family on this beautiful boat! There are not enough adjectives to describe our vacation on La Vie est Belle! Pepjin and Nicole were amazing! The food and the service was to perfection. And Pepjin was a qualified captain that discussed our itinerary and made our wants a reality. Bottom line, I would highly recommend this boat and this crew! We had the time of our lives! Thanks again!!"

"I could not have imagined a better experience. Pepijn is an extremely accomplished, experienced, knowledgeable and polite professional. His attention to detail is superb. Nicole is an amazing chef. I have been privileged to have eaten many places around the world at Michelin rated restaurants and without question, Nicole’s meals are among the best I have ever had, all the way to the fantastic presentation from dinners to snacks…The fact that she does all of her cooking in a small galley makes it even more amazing…I have already recommended the two, as a team, to several of my friends… I could not imagine have a better experience. There is no question the next time we charter it will be with Pepijn and Nicole…".
