Captain Taylor Smith
Taylor grew up in Central Virginia, splitting summers between driving ski boats on the lake and traveling in the family RV to every state with a road to it. After earning a business degree from Appalachian State University with honors, Taylor pursued a passion for living outside of the box. Playing in a touring rock band transitioned to extended trekking in South America, which led to bartending in Breckenridge, Colorado. After a few years of the ski bum life, the dream of setting off for points unknown in a sailboat started to form. He jumped head first into sailing and within a short period he was a licensed captain living aboard and traveling on his own boat.

Captain Mark Duncan
Having sailed since a teenager and fished and hiked from a young age, I have a passion for the outdoor life. Always happy, on, next to or in the water!
After years of operations management in the service industry, I embarked on a world tour for 12 months with Sally. We travelled extensively through America, Canada, Alaska, Peru, Australia & New Zealand, returning over Asia. My yachting experience includes cruising in Croatia, Greece, Turkey, the Caribbean from the Bahamas to the BVI’S and the Windward Islands, the Whitsundays, Malaysia and Thailand. Not to mention UK waters, and a Transatlantic crossing. On returning from travelling, I turned the leisure activity I love into a lifestyle. After a season as Flotilla Skipper in Croatia, I have now captained various catamarans and mono-hulls, both as employed crew and for 10 years as an Owner Operator. My passion for the ocean and its wildlife, coupled with an extensive knowledge of the Caribbean and particularly The B.V.I. ensures my guests get a thoroughly immersive experience of the islands. I pride myself in giving charter guests an amazing time.
Chef/Mate Sally Duncan
I have always loved sailing. I was put in a boat before I could walk, and grew up crewing and helming various dinghies and keelboats, at racing events with family and friends. In more recent years, I have learnt the joys of larger yacht sailing with Mark at a number of destinations throughout the world, and running our own charter catamaran in the BVI for 10 seasons.
My passion for travel, sailing, cuisine and these beautiful islands and their people, ensures my guests always have a ‘Vacation of a Lifetime’.
Cooking with my Mum from an early age, I graduated in Food Sciences at university. Then developed my skills hosting dinner parties for friends and attending chef courses in the UK.
Guests often comment on how varied my cuisine styles and flavours are.
Protecting our fragile environment is also a constant pursuit, so that all the wonderful nature we have is preserved for the future.
In running various charter yachts in the Caribbean, I have found my ‘niche’. I excel at ensuring my charter guests want to come back again and again, which they do!!
OVERVIEW
Three times winners of yachting industry awards, we gel as a team. Guests comment on our attention to detail whilst being fun at the same time. We plan every charter to our guests specific needs, ensuring you have a bespoke vacation.

We look forward to being your hosts and sharing our passion for this place, where the sky kisses the sand and the sand kisses the ocean.

Menu
The Cuisine- Chef Margaret Harrington
The Onboard Dining Experience
On Ebb + Flow, we offer a very unique menu style. Through observation and direct feedback, we’ve created a menu plan that caters to more time in and on the water, adventure and activities and less time feeling tired from eating too much. Because Margaret is a bonafide mermaid, Dive Master, Yoga Teacher, underwater hunter, and avid hiker, she can dedicate her time towards activities with you in the morning while showcasing her best culinary skills in the afternoon and evening.
What we offer is better… think “energize”. We want you feeling satiated, not heavy and tired from eating all day.
Our premier menu plan is two fully cooked meals: Brunch + Dinner. To start the day, a lighter continental style breakfast* will be available to graze on as individuals rise and shine. Additionally, appetizers and homemade desserts will be served as desired. Snacks will be available all day.
*Options are chosen as a charter entity prior to charter, in the preference sheet.
Chef Margaret will work with you and your group to determine the best options in a phone call about a month prior to your charter date. She maintains flexibility and welcomes an open conversation throughout the charter experience in regards to timing meals and specific needs. Her ultimate goal is to have people feeling vitalized through a nutritional, healthy, and even indulgent week aboard Ebb & Flow through her attentiveness and care.
Please keep in mind, planning is essential. Because we often visit remote places, access to provisions can be limited and extremely costly. Prior to your charter, each charter guest will be required to fill out a "Guest Profile + Preference Sheet", which is a place to share your specific provision needs, preferences, and allergies.
