Crew Profile

Luxury charter yacht crew for VALENTINA
Captain: Joshua Ryan
Captain: Joshua Ryan

Growing up as a 90's child in the vibrant California East Bay area and Sacramento Valley region, my childhood was filled with the thrill of competitive gymnastics. However, it was during the summertime, away from the gym, that my true passion for boating and water sports blossomed. Spending countless hours at the lake and wakeboarding with my family ignited a lifelong love affair with open waters.

While I may have caught the sailing bug a little later in life than some, it certainly hit me hard and fast. The enchantment of sailing captured my heart during a sailing excursion as part of a cruise in 2018. From that moment on, I sought out numerous sailing trips, including a transformative 7-day charter with Gustavo, my future husband, in the mesmerizing Angra dos Reis region of Brazil—an experience that forever holds a special place in my heart. On a bit of a whim, I visited the Fort Lauderdale boat show in October 2018, ultimately leading to the purchase of Valentina in Marina Del Ray, CA, just five months later.

In pursuit of warmer waters and the allure of better and more affordable margaritas, Gustavo and I embarked on a remarkable journey down the Pacific Mexican coast, welcoming the addition of our fur baby, Linda, during our exploration of the Costa Rican volcanoes. Our adventurous spirit then propelled us to transit the Panama Canal and become captivated by the splendor of the San Blas Islands.

While we were basking in the beauty of the San Blas, the world was abruptly halted by the arrival of Covid-19. For four months, we found ourselves quarantined in the lush jungles of Puerto Lindo, Panama, tied to a mooring. With perseverance and a touch of good fortune, we obtained special clearance from the coast guard, enabling us to embark on a non-stop seven-day sail to Isla Mujeres, Mexico, a destination with fewer restrictions and better tacos.

As Covid-19 protocols began to ease, we resumed our journey, navigating through the waters of Florida, the Bahamas, and twice around the enchanting eastern Caribbean, including memorable stops in Los Roques, Venezuela, and the ABC Islands in 2022. Following our journey through The Thorny Path in early 2023, we decided to make the eastern Caribbean our home and share our passion for sailing by offering extraordinary charters throughout the Leeward and Windward Islands.

Come embark on an unforgettable adventure with us aboard Valentina, where we combine our love for sailing, expertise in the travel and hospitality industry, and commitment to creating exceptional experiences. Whether you seek relaxation, thrilling water sports, or immersive cultural encounters, our charters promise to exceed your expectations. Join us on Valentina and discover the true meaning of luxury, freedom, and the joy of sailing in paradise.

Originally hailing from an untouched farm town nestled in the picturesque state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, I spent my formative years surrounded by rolling hills, lush forests, freshwater rivers, waterfalls, and abundant greenery. Despite being far from the ocean, my vivid imagination transformed the vast blue sky into a boundless sea of wonder.

Since my arrival in the USA, I have immersed myself in various domains, including the restaurant industry, hospitality, and customer service. Rooted in my unwavering passion for service, I take pride in my keen attention to detail, sincerity, and the Brazilian concept of 'aconchego'—a warm and cozy atmosphere.

My life took an extraordinary turn when destiny brought Josh and me together and we embarked on an amazing sailing journey. One day we simply left the ordinary life to sail the world and experience the joy of discovering the unknown, with the faith and courage to learn something new every day. Onboard Valentina we had found our new home, but it wasn’t a place, it was a marvelous ongoing adventure.

Join us on this remarkable experience as we embrace the essence of hospitality, cultural exchange, and the pursuit of lifelong memories aboard Valentina. Together, let's sail towards extraordinary horizons.

Testimonials

March 2024
Josh and Gustavo are amazing. By the end of the week we truly saw them as part of the family. They created amazing memories for us and this will be a top vacation to remember. It would be impossible to choose even a few things as 'best'. All the water toys, the delicious food, unique cocktails and Linda. We felt so welcomed immediately. We were in beautiful locations each time. Favorite stop was The Baths. The boys had a blast climbing around the rocks and through the pools. The communication from the booking agent was basically non-existant until we were on the boat. She was then very inquisitive and asking how our time on the boat is going. Best quote ever from my 13 year old step son, “I don’t want to go home tomorrow. low key. It doesn’t seem like we have been on here for 5 days. We should have done 2 weeks!”

I had the incredible opportunity to sail aboard Valentina, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I stepped on board, I was in awe of the sleek design and spaciousness of the vessel. The catamaran offered a level of stability that I had never experienced on a sailboat before.

Valentina's interior was nothing short of luxurious. The spacious cabins were elegantly appointed with comfortable seating, large windows that offered breathtaking views of the ocean, and all the amenities one could ask for. One of the highlights was the expansive deck. Whether I wanted to soak up the sun on the trampolines or relax in the shade under the canopy, there was a perfect spot for every mood.

The crew was both knowledgeable and friendly, ensuring that every moment of the journey was enjoyable and safe. They were eager to share their expertise about sailing and the local area, enhancing the overall experience.
I can’t wait for my next Valentina adventure!

Our recent charter experience onboard Valentina was absolutely fabulous. It began with a complete and easy to follow itinerary that guided us seamlessly throughout our journey. Information was provided on how to pack, and what we were about to experience was all detailed in our package, including how to get to and from airports, hotels, taxi’s and then on to the boat.

Once on the water it was obvious that the captain and crew had a lot of experience sailing and entertaining guests. The food was delicious, the places we went were breathtaking, and the islands we visited captivating. Meals were presented elegantly and featured custom dishes some with fish caught from the locals that morning. Other nights barbequing off the back of the boat were equally as amazing with the smell driving our appetites to new levels.

The boat was beautifully decorated with plenty of room on all 3 levels for guests to be together as well as areas to be alone. When we weren’t sailing or visiting a local island we were in the water floating on a party island watching the sunset, snorkeling around the reefs, swimming alongside turtles and stingrays, paddleboarding or tubing in the Atlantic. There were lots of things to do!

This was truly a once in a lifetime adventure. We had a wonderful trip and an experience that will last a lifetime.

We had the pleasure of experiencing an unforgettable journey with Josh and Gustavo on Valentina. We can’t say nice enough things about our time with them. From start to finish, the service exceeded all expectations, making our trip to St Martin in April an absolute dream.

Gustavo and Josh are an incredible team, and their attention to detail truly was amazing. Every part of our charter was expertly planned and coordinated. The yacht was beautiful (and huge), and our meals were top notch every time we sat down to eat.

Some of the highlights of our trip were the guided tours they hosted through the city and villages, allowing us to explore the local scene and immerse ourselves in St. Martin’s vibrant carnival culture. Having them as knowledgeable guides enriched the experience in ways I can’t adequately express.

And then there is their adorable dog, Linda. She added an extra layer of warmth to our adventure. Linda’s fun and friendly presence on the boat made every moment even more entertaining. Her company was truly a unique and heartwarming touch.

Our charter with Valentina was nothing short of exceptional. We have so many unforgettable memories. I wholeheartedly recommend chartering with Josh and Gustavo on Valentina, and I can’t wait to book with them again next year.

Dear Gustavo and Josh,

We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to you both. We are waking up from a beautiful dream, filled with endless beauty. Every minute spent with you was nothing short of incredible. It felt like a magical journey, where we experienced personal growth, learned from one another, and discovered new customs and cultures. The food was delicious and became a central part of our amazing experience. We enjoyed new foods and styles that we do not have the opportunity to try at home and they were all wonderful.

We want to extend our deepest thanks to both of you. Without your presence and influence, we would have never been exposed to such wonders. The memories we created together will be valued forever and cherished in our hearts. Thank you, for making each day special and bringing so much joy into our lives.

As we return to reality, we will continue to embrace each memory fondly and with appreciation.

Odete & Batista Grignani
