Steve
Captain

Born in: 1966
Nation: Austalian
Speaking Languages: Australian, English, Polish, Greek , French.

Monika

Captain Steve

Steve grew up on the coast of Australia and has been immersed in sailing from a very young age. Joining the Navy Cadets at twelve years old, he followed a true professional path at sea—working across a wide range of vessels over the years and learning every inch of the job, from the bilges up. This isn’t a career he stumbled into—it’s one he’s built from day one.

With decades of experience spanning Australia, Greece, and the Caribbean, Steve combines expert seamanship with an easygoing personality that instantly puts guests at ease. He holds himself (and his vessel) to the highest standards of safety, maintenance, and performance. When he’s not at the helm, Steve is often out kitesurfing, foiling, or freediving- always happiest in or on the water. He is also a keen reader who enjoys a quiet moment with a good book. In the evenings you might catch him at the back of the boat sparkling up the barbie and grilling something simple and delicious- because nothing beats good food, fresh air and a Caribbean sunset shared with good company.

Crew Monika

Monika, originally from Poland, brings a rich and varied background to the Groovy crew. Before stepping into life on the water, she built a solid foundation in the hospitality industry—developing the attentive, guest-focused approach she brings to every charter today. Her earlier years were also marked by extensive travel and work throughout Africa, where she explored remote regions and worked as a safari guide, honing her eye for wildlife and her deep love of nature.

Now an experienced sailor and onboard chef, Monika blends local Caribbean ingredients with Mediterranean flair to create fresh, wholesome meals tailored to her guests. She also has a keen knowledge of local markets and seasonal produce, ensuring each dish is vibrant, healthy, and rooted in the region.

Naturally more introverted, Monika brings calm, insight, and subtle humor to life aboard Groovy. She connects thoughtfully with guests, listens well, and has an intuitive sense of how to help each person feel at ease—whether that means sharing a good story, pointing out a rare bird overhead, or simply letting the moment unfold.
________________________________________

Together, Steve and Monika offer a rare balance of skill, warmth, and quiet professionalism. With Groovy as your home on the water, you’ll discover not just beautiful destinations—but a charter experience that feels completely effortless, genuine, and deeply personal.

Questions & Answers

How does the charter contract work?

The contract is signed directly between the Owner and the Charterer, with the support of the broker. It is usually based on the international MYBA contract model, designed to ensure clear and balanced protection for both parties.
There is also the figure of the Stakeholder, responsible for safely holding the funds until the end of the charter.

What is included in the charter fee?

The base rate includes the rental of the yacht, the use of all onboard equipment, the presence of the crew, and the related insurance coverage.
Operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, beverages, and additional activities are not included and are managed through the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance).

The exact list of what is included or excluded will be confirmed when selecting the yacht.

What is the APA and how does it work?

The APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is an advance fund, usually equal to 25–35% of the charter fee, allocated to cover operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, paid activities, beverages, and the guests’ personalized requests.

At the end of the cruise, the Captain provides a detailed breakdown of all expenditures. Any unused amount is refunded to the client, while any overages are settled directly upon closing the charter.

What are the payment terms?

Upon signing the contract, a payment of 50% of the total amount is required.
The balance — including APA, taxes, and any additional charges — is typically due around five weeks before embarkation (depending on the owner).
Payments are made via bank transfer, which is the standard method in the luxury charter industry.

Can I cancel a booking?

Yes, cancellations are possible, but the contractual terms apply.
In general, if the client decides to withdraw, the Owner retains the deposits already paid.

If the yacht is rebooked for the same period, the Owner refunds the amount recovered, minus the applicable commissions.

Every cancellation request is handled with full transparency.
Further details on the applicable policies are available upon direct request.

How can I choose the yacht that best suits my needs?

The choice depends primarily on the type of experience you wish to enjoy:

  • Motor yacht for maximum comfort, excellent stability, and fast transfers.

  • Sailing yacht for an authentic, quiet experience rooted in traditional navigation.

  • Catamaran for generous spaces, superior stability, and enhanced privacy.

BeBlue evaluates the destination, number of guests, personal preferences, and budget to select the most suitable option for you.

How far in advance should I book?

For peak season (Mediterranean: June–September; Caribbean: December–April), it is advisable to book several months in advance to secure the best available options.
We can also handle last-minute requests, depending on availability and licensing requirements.

Is it possible to personalise menus, preferences, and activities?

Absolutely. Before departure, you will receive a Preference Sheet where you can indicate your tastes, dietary needs, allergies, beverage preferences, and the activities you wish to enjoy.
The Chef and the Captain will use this information to create a fully customised experience for you.

How many guests can be accommodated on board?

Most yachts can host 6 to 12 guests, depending on their interior layout.
Some superyachts over 80 metres, compliant with international certifications, can accommodate up to 36 guests.

Will I have Internet access during the charter?

Most yachts offer Wi-Fi on board, provided through mobile networks or satellite systems. The quality and speed of the connection may vary depending on the cruising area and the technology installed.

Is tipping the crew expected?

Tipping is not mandatory, but it is a well-established custom to show appreciation for the crew’s service.
International guidelines suggest an amount equal to 10–15% of the base charter fee as a reference.
