Luxury charter yacht crew for COPPER PENNY
Captain: Ben Raley (45)
Captain: Ben Raley

Captain Ben Raley

Ben was born & raised on the Gulf of Maine, and has harbored a love of the sea his entire life. Building his first rowboat with his father at the age of six, Ben knew that the ocean was where he belonged. At eight, he started sailing aboard a Rhodes 19’ and by the age of 18, he made his way from Portsmouth, NH to Hawaii via the Caribbean islands and Panama Canal aboard various sailboats. Eventually settling in Washington State’s Puget Sound, Ben taught sailing in a community sailing program during the summer months and apprenticed under a local shipwright in the winters. Finally, aboard his own 32’ sailboat, he was able to fulfill a dream of sailing back to New Hampshire. Adventures along the way to fund his dream included; working as a deckhand aboard ocean going tugboats hauling freight through Southeast Alaska, commercial fishing for giant bluefin tuna, delivering sailboats along the west coast of Central America, and working as mate aboard a luxury charter yacht based in Petersburg, Alaska where he learned the finer points of running top quality charters. Tropical seas calling him, Ben focused his efforts on the Virgin Islands and has successfully Captained three charter catamarans based in the BVI. Ben is excited to be aboard Copper Penny, sailing the crystal-clear waters and trade winds of the US & British Virgin Islands.

Ben is an avid angler, with a particular interest in fly fishing, and has spent many hours discovering techniques and places in the Virgin Islands that can be productive for catching Tarpon, Bonefish, and several other species of hard fighting saltwater fish; the best season for targeting these species is April-July.

As a kitefoiler and paraglider, Ben knows where the conditions will be best on any given day for sailing and sport. Ben's newest endeavor in the water sports world is hydrofoiling. He loves to teach others how to fly above the water. Copper Penny has recently acquired a Lift electric hydrofoil and a towable hydrofoil, both designed for novices to learn on.

Mate & Chef: Rachel Haskovec (46)
Mate & Chef: Rachel Haskovec

Chef/Mate/Yoga Practitioner and Therapeutic Instructor

Rachel was born with an adventurous spirit, and grew up hiking, camping, fishing, and eagerly exploring her love for the outdoors on the front range of Colorado, between Boulder and Fort Collins. With a degree in Business Administration from CSU, she worked in sales and marketing for a power tool company and relocated to Boston, quickly developing a passion for the ocean, enjoying swimming, SCUBA diving, sea kayaking and catching and cooking the freshest seafood. Her fascination with sailboats also started in New England, where she called on and worked with the manufacturing facilities of Hinckley Yachts in Maine and observed the construction process from start to finish of some of the finest yachts in the world.

Rachel has also pursued her passion for food and entertaining, working with the Culinary Institute of Montana where winters included skiing and working in fine dining establishments while the summer months involved rock climbing, rafting, and racing sailboats on the largest natural freshwater lake in the western US. Missing the salty air and vastness of the ‘big blue’, Rachel left the US to live and work aboard a sailboat and deliver her from Florida to Bocas del Toro, Panama. Eventually spending extensive time in Central America, Rachel founded Nicaragua Energetic Flow Yoga, working as a full-time traveling yoga instructor at six resorts on the Pacific side of Nicaragua. She also managed and cooked at a B&B guesthouse in the jungle outside San Juan del Sur. As an athlete and therapeutic yoga instructor, Rachel is adamant about using the freshest quality local ingredients to create healthy and delicious meals that feed the body, mind and the soul.

Rachel is a passionate Yoga practitioner and Licensed Yoga Instructor, specializing in therapeutic practices. Over the years in the VI Rachel has had access to beautiful beaches and outdoor venues where she loves to bring interested guests to start their day with a gentle class or meditation. Her teaching style reflects her belief that yoga should be accessible to everyone, whether they have been practicing for years or have never been to a yoga class. These activities can be incorporated into your charter aboard Copper Penny and can add another layer of excitement or relaxation to your experience.

Stay safe, Max & Joe (May 2024)

What an amazing week! We so enjoyed our time with all three of you! You never know what great adventures lie ahead or who you’re going to meet. We are so very grateful for the loving kindness that the two of you (and yes, even Bosun) share in your world. Thank you, Ben for all the attention to details when it came to planning each day. Rachel, your meals were fabulously flavorful and flexible. Thank you for truly listening to us. There are no “accidents” in life and your sharing of your yoga practice seems to have been just what the Universe’s message was supposed to be! The BVI and the Copper Penny are very special destinations – the water, the sailing, the light and sand all create a relaxing vacation week. (Really, we have never taken so many naps!) However, it’s the sharing times and attention from you that allowed us to feel safe and sound. We’re looking forward to sailing with you again in 2025! - Tricia, Yolande, Nancy & Sharon (April 2024 - booked 2nd trip prior to disembarking)

Ben, Rachel & Bosun, I feel very lucky that I got to celebrate my 40th birthday early on the Copper Penny! Everything was perfectly executed! You are so skilled at what you do, it is seamless. You make it look easy, but I know hosting guests for a week is anything but. We loved sharing your boat home & your furmate! We were so lucky with weather, but am aware that took planning too. We had repeat adventures and new experiences. I appreciate your willingness to accept and love my tribe. Your ability to take care of them makes me happy. I loved sharing with them what I love about this beautiful place and our wonderful “framily” who live aboard Copper Penny. We appreciate all that you did for us, it was a phenomenal week! Bridget, Brian, Karen, Bill, & Lisa (April 2024 - 3rd time returning guests)

We embarked on a long-awaited trip with friends and in the process added a couple of new beach buddies and a fabulous pup. I can’t thank you enough for making this the trip of a lifetime.

WOW! We knew the BVI’s would be spectacular and create lasting memories for our family. What we didn’t know was that Rachel, Ben & Bosun would turn a great trip into a trip of a lifetime. Their love for the BVI shines bright and their desire to make you feel like family is genuine. I could go on and on about all he amazing places and adventures, but I will simply say a huge THANK YOU to Rachel, Ben & Bosun for sharing their passion with our family and creating memories that will last a lifetime. See you again soon! - Wayne (Jan 2024)

From the moment I met you guys I knew that I was going to feel right at home. I didn’t know what to expect coming into this trip, but my expectations were more than exceeded. I couldn’t have asked for a better captain and chef to guide my adventure in the BVI! In my eyes, you were more than just that, now it feels like I have a little piece of my family in such a beautiful place. For the adventures we shared to the meals we had, I will never forget this experience. To me, this was more than a vacation. I feel that throughout all of our memorable adventures that I also learned a lot from the both of you as well. I loved just talking to you guys and hearing your perspectives on life. I am so grateful that I was able to share this week with you both & Bosun of course! & learn so much. You are both special people and I am so happy we ended up with you as our guides to the BVI. I cannot express how thankful I am for the countless adventures, beautiful meals, amazing cocktails and the overall welcoming culture you guys brought to me and my family. Also, my Mom’s side is very interested in planning an adventure in the BVI and I couldn’t think of better hosts. Thanks for everything! - Jack (Jan 2024)

Thank you Ben and Rachel for giving us the holiday dreams are made of! The BVI is paradise on earth but the trip wouldn’t have been the same without you. – Sara (Jan 2024)

Feeling home away from home is not always easy, but you made it so easy! Thank you, Rachel and Ben for making our trip to the BVI the best we could have ever asked for! Please come to Italy! - Rebecca (Jan 2024)

This trip began as an idea for Mom/Grandma’s 70th birthday milestone. Three generations were here in the BVI and everyone took something special and personal away from the experience. Ben & Rachel, we loved seeing the islands through your eyes. The relationships you forged with people here is remarkable. Nobody from our crew had any reservations and we all were excited for the adventures you prepared. The food, the drink and the laughs were part of the absolute enjoyment that we will all remember for life. Thank you so much for your ability to make us all feel at home + BOSUN, Abby has a special place in her heart for him! Much Love, Karen, Matt, Megan, Curtis & Abby (Dec 2023)

Luke (June 2023)

And you are making a difference here contributing to the local livelihood. Cheers! Lauren & Gary (July 2023)

Thank you for the most wonderful week! I was so excited to get up each morning to eat, hear great stories and go on another adventure! The whole week was truly a unique experience led by two big hearted people. You inspired everyone to go outside their comfort zones and take time to reflect internally. Your great respect for the sea +BVI translated to us, showing us how lucky we were. This trip was my first time out of the country, snorkeling, fishing, and having lobster. Thank you for making trying new things so easy & unintimidating. Cheers! Ella & Ryan (July 2023)

Wow! What a special week this has been and what a great sign that our kids wanted to write their own pages in this book to let you know what a great time they had too!

Every day was an adventure and we felt comfortable about the daily plans because we all talked about it. “High, Low, Cheers” was a special part of the evening too! LOVE THAT!

There are always apprehensions to booking and committing to a vacation and even more when its more personal like a chartered excursion on a catamaran. Well once we got to our starting point & were welcomed aboard with smiles and confidence from Ben & Rachel. I felt transformed to begin a new adventure & memories to last a lifetime. From the absolutely amazing food, to the sailing to our various destinations it couldn’t have been planned. Thank you for listening to all of us and considering our choices. It has truly been one of the best decisions we’ve made! -Colleen (April 2023)

Thank you for the trip of a lifetime! From the sailing, food, conversation, snorkeling, etc. We feel you have become our friends. You made us feel very welcome and no words can describe it. You can sense what we wanted and it was nice not to be around a lot of other people. The cabins are so comfortable and well maintained. Food & wine were fantastic & well presented. Please keep in touch! -Jean (April 2023)
