Huge Thanks!
Huge thanks to the Encore Crew for putting up with us this week! Thanks for the incredible service, endless laughs, amazing meals & making sure we made it back to the boat after each stop. You 3 made this trip unforgettable – we could stay aboard the Encore forever, but until next time... thanks again!

We had such an amazing time traveling the BVI onboard Encore. The boat is pristine, the food was delicious and plentiful, and the crew…top notch. I cannot think of a single thing that was missing! My favorite part was simply relaxing on the top deck, taking in the fresh air and scenery. The boat is stunning and so comfortable. But the best part is the crew, y’all are simply the best at what you do and it wouldn’t be the same without you.
Thank you for putting up with our crazy antics. Thank you for taking us on those hikes that we huffed and puffed through, but wow, it was all so worth it. Thank you for all the cocktails and delicious food. We cannot wait to return!
Enjoy the rest of the season, and we look forward to hearing updates on your travels!
All the best,
Ashley
Thank you so much for a wonderful, memorable trip! Each new island/destination became my favorite of the trip because it somehow kept getting better. The boat is stunning & incredibly comfortable, the water sports were so much fun, and the pace and the itinerary were perfect. You couldn't ask for a better crew! They took care of every detail and truly made this trip magical! I had a blast, learned along the way, and ate some amazing food! I have such special memories that will stay with me for life. Thank you! Love Tiff

There are not enough words to describe how wonderful this trip is and was. The boat has amazing amenities - like a 5 star Ritz stay. But, the icing on the cake was the crew.

Crew Profile
Captain Lené Conradie
Hailing from George in South Africa's Western Cape, has always embraced challenges, excelling in sports and adventurous pursuits. After earning her Yachtmaster qualification right out of high school, she gained valuable experience at top sailing schools in South Africa. Lené's Atlantic crossing and island-hopping journey solidified her love for the Caribbean, where she now thrives. She is dedicated to safety, professionalism, and creating unforgettable experiences for her guests, going the extra mile— or nautical mile— to ensure their happiness.
First Mate Herman Bester
From the charming coastal town of Saldanha, South Africa, has a deep-rooted passion for the ocean, cultivated through years of snorkeling, fishing, and surfing. With a degree in Sports Science and a newfound love for scuba diving, Herman is dedicated to ensuring guest safety and comfort during dives and all other watersports activities. His keen eye for detail and commitment to vessel upkeep reflect his pride in his work. With a background in hospitality, Herman guarantees that each guest leaves with a smile and unforgettable memories.
Chef Christina
A Cincinnati native, Greek-American, and New Yorker of 20 years, Chef Christina took a wonderfully unconventional path to the galley.
After spending 15 years in fashion merchandising in New York City, Christina followed a lifelong love of food and hospitality and traded fashion for a culinary career. Encore marks her sixth season cooking in the British Virgin Islands, a place she has come to know and love — both for its beauty and for the incredible ingredients the Caribbean has to offer.
Christina’s love of cooking began long before her career as a yacht chef. She grew up in a Greek-American family where food was at the heart of everything, learning to cook alongside her family and inheriting recipes and traditions she still brings into her galley today. Her Greek roots remain a strong influence in her cooking, from treasured family recipes to specialty ingredients she personally sources from Greece.
Travel is another constant source of inspiration. During the off-season, Christina explores the world through its food — wandering markets, discovering local specialties and bringing new flavors and ideas home with her. She is happiest hunting down the freshest local seafood, beautiful produce and the best ingredients she can find, creating menus that blend Mediterranean roots, Caribbean freshness and inspiration gathered from around the globe. An avid baker as well as a chef, she believes thoughtful sourcing and cooking from scratch make all the difference.
For Christina, being a yacht chef is about much more than food. Having spent most of her adult life in hospitality, she genuinely loves taking care of people. Bright, bubbly and quick to laugh, she brings warmth and energy to the galley and loves creating the kind of meals guests talk about long after their charter ends.
She is especially excited to return to the BVI aboard Encore and to work alongside Lené and Herman, a team whose friendship, shared passion for hospitality and love of life on the water make Encore feel like home.
For Christina, this isn’t simply a job — it’s a career built around everything she loves: cooking beautiful food, exploring the world and creating unforgettable experiences around the table.
