  CAPTAIN BRYAN & CHEF/ MATE PATRICIA

  Bryan was born and raised in Jupiter, Florida where his love for the ocean began. As a teenager, he would spend his days with his friends at the beach, often free diving just off of the shore or near the Jupiter Inlet for lobsters. After graduation, Bryan spent a few years working in the hospitality industry, in various country clubs and restaurants but always yearned for more. At 21 he got a job as a deckhand on board a charter boat in St. Croix, USVI, and never looked back. Eventually working his way up to becoming a well-respected catamaran sailing Captain. He is an avid adventurer who enjoys shark diving, sailing, hiking, and anything to do with the ocean. Bryan’s laid-back but charismatic personality seems to be the perfect combo for entertaining and providing an excellent experience on board and has a long list of great reviews from guests who were able to call Bryan their captain.

  Patti grew up in Jupiter, Florida where she worked in the hospitality industry for several years at numerous restaurants in the South Florida area. In 2016 she met Bryan at a beach party and they immediately hit it off, spending the next several years traveling throughout the states and even living on St.Croix in the USVI for a year. They eventually were offered a dream job in 2020 on a charter catamaran in the USVI, and have worked in tandem since then. Patti enjoys cooking all kinds of cuisines and can easily work around any dietary restrictions she might have. On her off time, she enjoys going to the beach to read a book or paddle board and also finds happiness in finding new recipes to try out for future guests.

  Magical Week!

  One week aboard Island Hoppin was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we stepped on, the crew turned our adventure into something extraordinary. The captain was an incredible guide. Not only taking us to incredibly beautiful beaches, but also ensuring that we went to all of the fun stops ashore as well. His confidence made us all feel safe and well cared for. He patiently answered my many (many!) questions about just about everything and his sense of humor kept us laughing the whole week.
  
  The chef is simply a magician in the kitchen! Every meal she prepared was bursting with flavors, and were lovingly crafted from fresh local ingredients. She didn't just feed us, she created moments around the table that we'll cherish forever. This trip was more than just a vacation, it was a PERFECT blend of laughter, beauty, and unforgettable memories. Thank you for creating such a magical week. You guys know that we are already planning a return trip, and we really hope that you will be a part of it! Congratulations in advance on your wedding- we wish you both all the best that life can bring.

  Nothing Short Of Magical!

  Our first charter was nothing short of magical and our favorite vacation to date. Island Hoppin has everything you need/want, but the crew make it special. Perfectly executed itinerary and meals created with so much effort and care. This is the standard to which all future vacations will be measured. So many laughs, lots of sunshine, and maybe a few too many cocktails.
  For memories: The stars at night, sunsets, the food!!!, truck tour of Anegada, celebrating our 20th anniversary, and e-foiling. We hope you all are around when we are ready for our next charter, but if not we wish you a lifetime of wonderful memories and good times with friends and family.

  Great Vacation For All Of Us!

  What a thrill to spend a week on Island Hoppin' with both of you! We had a great time diving, snorkeling, sailing, bar hopping and exploring. But most of all we have enjoyed being together as friends on this boat. You both facilitated a great vacation for all of us. You make a great team. We knew that we were in good hands and that allowed us all to relax and frolic like kids. Chef- we can't say enough about how good your meals were! Every dish, platter and assortment was fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. We are all very spoiled now. And I will definitely be trying to recreate some of the magic that you created. You both make it look fun and easy, but we all know the amount of work it takes behind the scenes! Best wishes for your future adventures.

  Felt So Welcome!

  Thank you for making us feel welcome on this fabulous yacht. We enjoyed getting to know you and learning about the area. The Baths were amazing, the wreck of The Rhone was a dive I will never forget, and who can forget the pirates of the Willy T! Karen and the pirate show by Michael Beans and earning the title of "Conch Queen" to defend the crown is also a special memory. One thing that I must mention is that my mom was a chef and a baker and although we have experienced many wonderful chefs on premium cruises, the chef's cooking brought back fond memories of my mom in a way that no one else has. Thank you so much!

  Exemplary Experience

  Thank you for providing an exemplary experience for our family! Every meal was outstanding, and the anchorages picturesque. This has been our favorite family vacation ever and we look forward to the next one. Be on the lookout for some new songs inspired by this trip!
  
  Thank you so much for the funnest trip we have ever taken! We had the best time with not only each other but had even more fun with you guys! You both made sure to take us to the coolest places to ensure we had the best time and we really appreciate both of you for all that you do. We can't wait to sail BVI with you again soon!

  Wonderful Trip

  Will and I had the best week sailing on Island Hoppin. You to have it going on! The best food; we were shocked by how delicious the food was. We loved all the spots we stopped at-however Anegada was our favorite. The crew always had a plan B and never seemed frazzled by a change in plans. The chef always seemed so chill and glided through the galley with ease. We are going to miss the boat and this trip so much. Can't wait to come back!
  
  Thank you so much for a wonderful trip! The food and drinks were amazing! We can't wait to come back and bring our family! We could not have asked for a better experience. Everything was top notch. We can't wait to do it again.

  Felt So Pampered

  We absolutely loved the yacht Island Hoppin'! So spacious and comfortable. The Primary cabin was so comfortable with an overabundance of storage. There were also so many places to plug in your electronics. We felt so pampered. The beds would be made while we were eating breakfast and turn down the beds and on the electric candles each evening (yes, I realize that is an amenity, but still nice!). The bathroom had a window to see out and was stocked with nice towels, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner on the wall of the shower, and had other items one might forget while traveling, in the cabinet.
  
  The toys on the boat were super fun! The kids all enjoyed learning, and mastering, the e-foil! There were 4 SUPs onboard along with many floats. When we boarded, we had Yeti-type mugs (Bote) made up with our names on them. They were to go with all of the Bote-brand toys so that the very strong magnets on the bottom would connect to the magnets on the floats and SUPs. Super-efficient to not have our drinks/cocktails fall into the water!
  
  Captain was very professional and fun while supervising our 2 kids on their open water dives to complete their PADI certification. Afterwards, my husband and other son, who were already PADI certified, all got to dive together. Captain was attentive to all their safety yet provided an entertaining experience for all. The diving and snorkeling equipment were in great shape as well. The lifting platform (where the dingy is transported) was wonderful to have for the divers, too, making it a breeze for the divers to enter and exit the water.
  
  Since I was the one to arrange the trip, I guess I was considered the "primary". I actually enjoyed that part especially since I am the mom of the group and know everyone there! A nice little perk! ;)
  
  The crew paid close attention to our preference sheet, including the food allergies. They had all the alcohol we preferred and also had plenty of food and protein to make our middle son happy and satiated. The food was all creative and delicious! Some of us even got recipes from chef! The foods were all beautifully presented onto a beautifully decorated table which changed themes each night. The cocktails were delicious and creative. They also let my husband and son play with creating their own drinks.
  
  We loved having the Bluetooth speakers onboard to hook into and the wifi...ridiculous! They had Starlink. We all commented that Wifi was better than any of us had in our homes!
  
  A nice little perk, which we did not use, was a projector in the galley that plays movies on the shades of the sliding glass doors. I would imagine it'd be great for stormy days (heaven forbid) or children.
  
  We would highly recommend this crew and also Island Hoppin' 55!! Both made this family vacation absolutely perfect!

  Wow!

  This is our third trip on Island Hoppin and the first on the brand new Island Hoppin'. Wow!!
  
  What's new this time was we sailed in the Bahamas. We always enjoy getting away and being in the sun and warm waters. This year, Island Hoppin is a new 55 ft Lagoon catamaran. Slightly bigger than the previous boat, it provides much more space in the salon and the rear dining area. Also the flybridge is larger and has a refrigerator for cold drinks up top as well as there being more storage space in the cabins.
  
  The crew is outstanding. Based on previous trips, we had high expectations and they were easily met. Captain handled all the sailing and itinerary so the planning was super easy. Chef  prepared delicious meals every day. Hot breakfasts, great lunches and awesome dinners. A wide variety throughout the week with new dishes every day.
  
  The experience is outstanding. A new water lounge, snorkeling gear, paddleboards, kayaks and scuba are all available, plus a new efoil to surf the waters. Plenty to do, or just relax.

  Pinch Me

  So there I was, floating in the beautiful blue/turquoise waters of the Bahamas. There were so many “pinch me” moments on Island Hoppin’, a stunningly beautiful and amazingly outfitted Lagoon 55 Catamaran.
  
  The owners love to sail, pay attention to the little things, and want you to have an amazing time aboard their well appointed catamaran. From morning wake ups with amazing views out my window, to final wind down in a plush and comfy turned down bed complete with a chocolate mint waiting for me, and everything in between, this boat is amazing.
  
  Chef's gorgeous and flavorful meals were a gift to both the eyes and the taste buds. Being gluten intolerant, I was extremely surprised that my every meal was just as thought out as the meal served to everyone else. Often, the meals looked identical, with mine made with gluten free substitutions where necessary. Chef even made fresh bread, and gluten free muffins, and even provided gluten free snacks for me.
  
  Captain is a master of many things. He keeps the boat ship shape with a vast knowledge of the sea, boats and sailing. This is matched by his desire to see new areas and learn about them. His ability to maneuver the boat into a particularly tight slip was incredible to watch.
  
  The relaxation quotient is high on Island Hoppin’. Enjoy a book or conversation on the deck, flybridge, or salon. Hang out in the water on a paddle board, floating dock, snorkeling or even SCUBA with Captain as your Dive Master. Watching the sunset and seeing the stars at night never gets old for me.
  
  I can’t think of a more relaxing place to be with friends or family, having new adventures and creating new memories!
