 CAPTAIN JACK
BOYEJack has
owned, chartered, raced and cruised on yachts for over thirty years. His
racing CV is extensive. He is the only American to have completed the BOC
Single Handed Around the World Race, The OSTAR Trans Atlantic Race and the
French Route du Rhum Race. Add five Bermuda One/Two Races, racing from Cape
Town to Brazil, cruising from Newport to Norway, and Jack has 60,000
nautical miles under his keel.
Jack attended Penn State
University on a football scholarship, graduated with a BA in American
History and went to work on Wall Street for the next twenty years. An

of the largest wholesale execution firms. He left Wall street to start
a technology company that used the internet to do real time portfolio
analysis.
Jack enjoys travel,
adventure, hiking and the excitement of exploring new places. He has
traveled in Europe, Norway, the British Isles, Mexico, South America, Asia,
New Caledonia and Australia. He loves photography, music of all types,
theater and cooking.
Jack enjoys sailing with his
own family and welcomes children over eight years old who have water skills.
There is lots of entertainment for kids. Experiencing the yacht is foremost
and there are games, books, children’s DVD’s, radio and CD’s, fishing,
swimming and exploring island beaches and hillside paths. Safety is always
first.
 CHEF/ HOSTESS SUSAN BOYE
Susan grew up in Barrington,
Rhode Island where she was an active member of the Barrington Yacht Club.
She spent all her childhood summers sailing Narragansett Bay and New England
and her winters skiing in Mt Washington Valley.
She attended the University
of New Hampshire with a major in Botany and a minor in Art and also has a
B.S. in Nursing. She has managed greenhouse production in Washington
State and developed wild blueberry fields in Maine.
An active, outdoors person,
Susan has hiked and skied in Switzerland, Scotland, the Sierra mountains,
the Olympic Peninsula and the Presidential Range. She lived in the
Caribbean for several years, working and sailing aboard both monohull and
catamaran yachts.
Susan is a graduate of the
Oregon Culinary Institute and has taken courses at several cooking schools
in Quebec. Her culinary style, casual and elegant, reflects a strong French
influence with Caribbean inspiration. Guests on PRIDE will enjoy Susan’s
creative interpretation of their specific menu requests. She will also
offer professional massage therapy for guests. Her medical background as a
licensed RN is a valuable qualification.
Jack and Susan believe that
pre-charter communication is the key to giving each party of guests the
sailing vacation they’ve always dreamed of – and more than they ever
expected.
