Crew Information
Captain: Colleen Korona
Captain: Colleen Korona
Colleen was born and raised Florida, where she grew up playing on the water. She bought her first sailboat when she was 24 years old, decided to live on it and then sailed it to the Bahamas. Colleen stepped out of the boating world for a while and managed a mental health office with 10 doctors for several years before moving on to working at a nuclear brain-imaging facility. Then the recession came, and she was unemployed. It didn’t take much prodding to head back out on the ocean and do more sailing. She literally sold almost everything, packed the rest up, and spent the next year sailing the East coast and exploring the cruising grounds from Florida to Rhode Island. There happened to be a group of boats heading to the Caribbean in Virginia and she though, “What the heck! Let’s check it out and head to the Caribbean!” 14 days later they arrived in Tortola, BVI. She spent another year playing,
exploring, and sailing down to Trinidad, and then the money ran out. Colleen started to pick up jobs on charter boats here and there to have some money in her pocket. Over the next few years, Colleen worked as a first mate on a tall ship and sailing day-charter boats as well as a stewardess and deckhand on a trimaran and crew on mega yachts in New England. But nothing beats working in the Caribbean! Colleen then got her captain’s license, and now feels very fortunate to have a great office at sea where she can share the beautiful place with guests.
Chef/Mate: Matt Ponto
Matt has been in the customer service industry for the past 25 years. His career as a professional chef has led him to the Caribbean where ne now uses his culinary skills to create the perfect onboard dining experience to deliver a broad spectrum of flavors and genres, keeping each new day full of fresh ideas. Matt grew up in Florida and has spent most of his life in or on the water, and he’s been an avid scuba diver since 2006. In 2012, he got rid of
everything except for one suitcase full of clothes and started doing seasonal work as a traveling chef. After living in Hawaii, Alaska, and Cozumel, he found himself in ST Thomas working in a food truck on the beach when a friend approached him with a job offer as a chef on a charter boat. This is where he met Colleen and discovered the perfect gig. Since then, Matt has combined his love of food with his love of the ocean to create the perfect charter for more than just a vacation experience – but a passion for life and nature, and the desire to share those things with like-minded individuals.

Many thanks for a great adventure and all the opportunity to create memories that will continue to bring us great joy and last for the years to come.
This was a special, treasured time for our family. It was made so much richer by all your acts of kindness and hospitality. You all have a special, unique gift for what you do and it is apparent that it comes straight from the heart.
I have no doubt that whatever your next endeavour is, it will be nothing less than an outrageous success.
It was our honor and great pleasure to spend this time with you. Not goodbye, but so long, until our paths cross again≥
With our love, Fayn & the Hicks family.
Biff, Amy & Piers,
Thank you do much for the best 5 days! Thank you for teaching me tons and pushing me out of my comfort zone. Everyone has special talents and overall infectious energy that fills up every room.

Thank you for such an amazing experience. Amy the food was exceptional. Every meal we had was beyond our expectations. Biff we had so much fun with you. Your “lectures’ were informative & entertaining. Your passion for what you do is contagious & inspirational. Piers, the service you offer was over & beyond any expectations we had. The drinks you made every evening were fabulous. Thank you especially for Tom’s sweet tea & daquiris. We want to do this again but can’t imagine doing it without y’all. We’re sad y’all are moving on but it gives someone to visit in England! Please stay in touch!

Thank you all for the adventure of a lifetime! I had no idea just how amazing this vacation would be. You three managed to exceed expectations each and every day by going above and beyond. Your enthusiasm and attention to detail made every minute of our trip truly exceptional. Lots of fantastic memories were made on this trip!
Best of luck in your new venture!

Amy, Biff & Piers,
How do we even say how AMAZING you three are & the Amaya? It has been the trip of a lifetime. So beautiful. Amazing sights to see. You three are the sweetest & we so appreciate all that you did to make one week perfect. Amy; The food was better than 5 stars – loved it all!. Biff; Loved the stories, adventures and snorkeling. Best Ever! Piers; The perfect cocktails & taking care of everything else. Thanks again for everything. The Best Crew & Friends Ever!!
Love Judi & Dave
Amy, Biff, Piers,
We cannot thank you enough for all of your efforts & hospitality on the beautiful Amaya this week. Although it was intended to be a celebration for Toms 50th I appreciate how you all quickly realized this week was all about me! My sincerest apologies for placing plastic and aluminum in the receptacle clearly designated as “Plastic only”! I also deeply regret the broken cooler handle and pulling the tender towards the yacht incorrectly using the “grabbing handle”! The morning hikes were truly a nice treat, even if it thwarted my prior plans with Sherry that did not involve leaving the suite!
In all earnestness, you three did a tremendous job entertaining our group and catering to our every need. You clearly take pride in the Amaya and your guests experience to ensure a first class vacation.
Amy, your meals were outstanding, which will only result in Sherry wanting to eat in even more expensive establishments! Best wishes & good luck with your next endeavor in UK. I cannot wait to come and break things there!
Wayne
Thanks so much, Nancy
Thank you all for a memorable trip. We enjoyed getting to know you and appreciatd all the lessons, especially the weather!
Amy, you out did yourself! Every meal was fantastic! Loved the last nights meal.
We hope you have a great 2025!
Regards, The Bertonis.
Thank you TEAM! Enjoyed learning about the BVI and all the natural beauty. Meals were amazing and beautiful. Thank you Amy. Enjoyed our less adventurous days the most. Just wanted some R&R in a special place. Loved our kitty chat Amy! Wish you all the best, Kim & Rich.
When we started this voyage together, you said we’ll feel like family at the end. You were not wrong!
From Amys outstanding cooking to Biff & Piers’ tutelage on all of the things – the sea, the ship etc – your hospitality felt like a warm hug that hasn’t stopped from the moment we set sail.
Thank you for making this trip of a lifetime that much more extraordinary.
We hope that you’ll all stay in touch and we miss you already.
Thank you for an exceptional holiday! As a loving and caring team you made this boat (Amaya) our home for a week. The five of us have learned a lot from you during these days. From sailing to e.foiling and enjoying amazing food with music on in the background. We will remember this vacation at BVI forever.
Felipe, Catalina, Laura, Tomas, Pedro/Pablo.
We loved it and hope to see you soon, maybe in NYC!
Xx The Smiths
Thank you for a trip of a lifetime! I will never forget my surprise 50th birthday party on Amaya! You Sneaky ones! ;-)
The meals, desserts & nibbles were 5* Amy! (Remember you can’t spell Amaya without Amy!)
Biff was an amazing captain & adventurous leader. The snorkeling trips were a favorite! So Much Fun! Biff your vibrant, positive attitude created a relaxed atmosphere. You also tried your best to educate us on all things BVI. Much appreciated!
Piers you were fantastic as well! Always accommodating, taking care of the boat and us at the same time. Your delicious cocktails got the party started each night. Tireless worker!
This was truly a trip of a lifetime. We sure hope our paths cross again in this lifetime!
Biff, Amy & Piers,
Words cannot express what a great time we had this week aboard Amaya. The level of adventure was amazing, the food incredible and the care for your guests and attention to detail unmatched. Your energy and warmth made us feel welcome as if we were old friends.
Many thanks for memories that will last a lifetime!
Dear Biff, Amy & Piers,
It has been a perfect week on Amaya because of all of you. Amy, the food was excellent. Piers your service in all things was outstanding. Biff what an awesome and kind captain you are. Your hospitality, friendship and warmth made us feel welcome and we’ll remember this adventure and all of you fondly.
Best wishes for the future and Thank you! Thankyou for everything.
Biff, Amy & Piers,
WHAT A TRIP!
Thank you so much for sharing your home with us for the last week. We have made memories that will be with us forever! Your meals are “off the charts” and attention to detail is second to none. Thanks to you we won’t soon forget our time in the BVI and all its beauty you shared with us. It makes all the difference when you get to experience it with a team like you have assembled. YOU GUYS ARE PERFECTION.
Also thanks for making Jills 50th special!
We hopeyour European adventure is Amazing and everytime we sing “Amie” by Pure Prairie League you know who we will be remembering!
With any luck our paths may cross again.
Big, big gratitude for an exceptional holiday. Your care, thoughtfulness and talents made our experience in the BVI’s outstanding.
Every meal was greater than a 10. Amy thank you for sharing your craft so beautifully. You are the best.
Piers, your energy was elevating and grounding simultaneously. You’re a magician and you make damn good cocktails.
Captain Beef, your enthusiasm is infectious and your love of boating, the islands and adventure made our time with you so fun.
Congratulations on best crew ever! Much love and gratitude, your favourite Canadian guests…?

Thank you guys for everything. Piers makes the best painkillers, Amy makes the best food and Beef makes the worst jokes. Connor
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
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. Our first ever trip to the Caribbean / BVI’s was full of wonderful weather, fabulous snorkelling and meeting new friends while vacationing with old friends. 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! Amaya is now a boat we love but a crewed yacht is not the boat, it is the crew & you’re EXCEPTIONAL!!!!
Your love, amazing hospitality, food & drinks, your seamanship, your team work & mostly your love are all massively appreciated.. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY SPECIAL TIME IN OUR LIVES!
Thank you!
Simply Wow! What an incredible week! I simply can’t imagine anything better Just know God has given each of you a unique talent and we are beyond blessed to treasure this time for the rest of our lives. Much Love!
Wow! What an amazing week. Thank you all so much for the wonderful food, lessons, laughs…… All was spectacular. You 3 make a wonderful team. Keep up the excitement – We pray to meet again. Love to all
#1 crew! What ana amazing week we had. We were very impressed with all the knowledge you all have. You made this vacation memorable. We really appreciate all that you did. We would love to come back on your boat in the near future. P.S Amy you spoiled me with your delicious food!
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

Dear Crew Amaya; Biff, Amy & Piers,
As you know, Allison & I had experienced two previous BVI Charter trips but we had a cat charter on our bucket list. We began the Boat Worthy Crew charter with very high expectations and excitement – the 3 of you provided and experience exceeding both!!
To say this trip was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement with each day full of excellent service, fun, laughs and education.
As we love to say and toast, we must never lose our sense of gratitude and wonderment while we celebrate our fellowship, experiences & memories!!
With our love and Happy Sailing,
Evan & Allison
For what has been now voted the No. 1 Family Vacation we have taken. That is saying lot as it is hard to get our 4 kinds to agree on anything! You all made the trip extra special and we will see you again next year! David.

To Tommy, Piers and Amy,
There are no words which can describe adequately the amazing vacation we have had aboard the Amaya.
You all were incredibly warm, friendly and professional. But really fun too!
We feel we are saying goodbye to friends and we look forward to meeting again.
Everything was perfect!
Best regards and God Bless all of 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! The Nunez B, W, H and E
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 family
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 - Connecticut
