Crew information
Captain: Francesca Stocco Crew: Matteo Dalla Bona Francesca and Matteo are a couple from northern Italy who left land life for the sea. They now bring a unique blend of sailing expertise, culinary talent, and local knowledge to every charter aboard Tranquila. Both licensed captains (RYA/MCA Yachtmaster) and graduates of the renowned Ashburton Chefs Academy, they seamlessly combine navigation and gourmet dining to create experiences where guests can simply relax and enjoy every moment. Having lived and worked in the British Virgin Islands for years, they know the islands intimately — from hidden coves and pristine beaches to the best local provisioning spots. Their favorite destinations include Anegada, Guana Island, and the iconic waters of Gorda Sound and White Bay. With many years on charter and private vessels, multiple Atlantic crossings, and more than 30,000 nautical miles logged, Francesca and Matteo ensure guests feel safe and completely at ease, confident that every detail is expertly handled. Their passion for sailing began with a bold leap: having been on a boat only a few times, they sailed from Croatia to South Africa on a stranger’s catamaran. That journey sparked a lifelong love of life at sea, to the point that they still live on a catamaran today. Culinary experiences aboard Tranquila are carefully crafted to delight every guest. Francesca and Matteo specialize in Italian and Mediterranean cuisine while also offering Caribbean, Asian, and Mexican-inspired dishes. They create custom menus tailored to dietary preferences and requirements and pair meals with carefully selected wines, ensuring dining is effortless, memorable, and fully enjoyed without worry. Passionate about water sports and exploration, they love sharing their skills and organizing activities ranging from paddleboarding and snorkeling to sunset cocktails and lively karaoke nights. Fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Italian, they foster a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, where guests can fully immerse themselves in the experience without having to think about a thing. Sit back, let Francesca and Matteo handle every detail, and enjoy la bella vita on Tranquila! Captain and Chef: Francesca Stocco Captain and Chef: Matteo Dalla Bona
