Roland Schaeffer
Capitán

Nacido en: 1964
Nación: South African
Idiomas hablados: English

Vanessa Verster
Chef

Nacido en: 1967
Nación: South African

Your Captain and Chef Roland and Vanessa, both vibrant, energetic and charming hosts, with an unfailing sense of humor hail from Cape Town South Africa, where they met through mutual friends while still in their 20’s. Married in 2010, they are both well-travelled and have chartered together since about 2012.

Roland has been boating since a very young age, hanging around the Royal Cape Yacht Club and offering his services as a boat cleaner, (literally starting from the bottom up) and being invited onboard on race days as rail bait! While remaining a keen boater, he went on to working as a industrial technician before becoming an entrepreneur. Owning his own business afforded him the flexibility to keep sailing, and Roland assisted or captained on a variety of long-distance sailing yacht deliveries, accumulating in excess of 100 000Nm. It was during one of these yacht deliveries to the Caribbean, Roland discovered the world of charter yachts.

While in her 20’s, Vanessa embarked on a live-aboard dive vacation in the Red Sea. Her first live-aboard boating experience inspired her to abandon her life in the South African hospitality/culinary industry and set a course for new horizons. Vanessa was for many years in the restaurant industry, from South Africa, to Europe, to South and Central America to finally owning her own eatery in the prestigious London-Marylebone area. Vanessa’s mom was her first inspiration, teaching Vanessa to create dishes that please, and accommodating various dietary requirements.

Shortly after marrying, Roland and Vanessa combined their respective skill sets and moved from South Africa to Antigua to manage a live-aboard term charter sail boat. Between 2012-present, Roland and Vanessa have run charters from the Virgin Islands to Grenada, gaining an intimate knowledge of the leeward and windward islands on sailboats of different shapes and sizes.

Roland and Vanessa are both avid scuba diver/free diver, Roland also happens to be a PADI Instructor, Vanessa is a PADI Divemaster.

When not in the galley, Vanessa is swimming in the ocean or hiking on land, and she loves white water rafting. Roland’s love of sailing keeps him busy but he also enjoys kite surfing and heraldry.

Engineer Jacob hails from the coast of New Jersey in the northeastern United States. Surrounded by a family of sailors, divers, and fisherman, Jacob's love and appreciation for the ocean developed from an early age. In 2010 Jacob's family traded their life in New Jersey for the warm waters off the pacific coast of Costa Rica. Jacob was first introduced to the yachting industry in 2016 and Immediately he knew he belonged. He excelled for the next five years fulfilling the role of steward/deckhand aboard sailing yachts executing luxury term charters throughout the Caribbean. In 2021, Jacob began pursuing his ultimate dream of becoming a ship's engineer; in early 2023 he got his chance. After accepting a lead role on Abide’s extensive refit project, Jacob’s mechanical skills and knowledge were honed and put to the test during a twenty-month yard period. Over the past eight years Jacob has cemented himself as a well rounded and competent crew member. So whether you need your oil changed, your sails trimmed, or your cocktail mixed to perfection Jacob is truly a jack of all trades.

Seth Jansen Van Vuuren– Engineer & Crew Member - Born in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, Seth has always had a passion for mechanics—whether it was aviation or restoring classic cars and motorcycles. But the journey into the world of sailing began when a high school friend introduced him to his first job on a yacht. That experience changed everything.

At 17, he moved to the coast of Port Elizabeth, where his love for the ocean grew. What started as a job quickly became a lifelong pursuit, leading him to the Caribbean, where he raced high-performance gunboats. It was there that he truly discovered his passion for large monohulls—their elegance, power, and the engineering behind them fascinated him.

Now, as an engineer and crew member, he brings both technical expertise and an unmatched enthusiasm for sailing. Whether maintaining the yacht at peak performance or ensuring guests have a seamless experience, he is always ready to share his love for the sea.

First Mate Keith Allen left the corporate world behind at 22 years old after some years working as a commercial ship broker and later, construction manager in Queensland, Australia. His travels took him to sailing the Caribbean on a 40ft sloop where he discovered an untapped passion for the ocean and that within it.

Since 2018 Keith has worked on a variety of vessels including modern superyachts, classic sailing yachts as well as smaller racing keelboats in the Mediterranean, Caribbean and eastern seaboard of the United States. Keith has also sailed as a charter captain on catamarans up to 62ft in Greece and the Virgin Islands and is eager to step into the role as first mate on S/Y Abide.
A passionate waterman, Keith is a well traveled and enthusiastic dive instructor, photographer and water sports aficionado who is keen to show you the beautiful waters of the Caribbean at whatever pace you desire.

Deckhand

Stewardess Coral was born in Nevis and raised on boats in the Caribbean, her love for sailing has been constant throughout her life. From a young age, she has explored the islands and sailed offshore, developing a deep connection to the sea and the yachting lifestyle. In 2020, she moved to England to further her education, earning GCSEs and A-levels in Travel and Tourism and Psychology. These studies, combined with extensive experience on the water, have equipped Coral with a unique blend of practical and academic knowledge. She is now eager to channel her passion, skills, and dedication into a fulfilling career in the yachting industry, and she is looking forward to contributing as part of your crew.

DISTRIBUCIÓN DEL YATE VER- CERRAR

Preguntas y respuestas

¿Cómo funciona el contrato de chárter?

El contrato se firma directamente entre el Armador y el Cliente, con el apoyo del bróker. Normalmente se basa en el modelo contractual internacional MYBA, diseñado para garantizar una protección clara y equilibrada para ambas partes.
También está prevista la figura del Stakeholder, responsable de custodiar los fondos de forma segura hasta la finalización del chárter.

¿Qué incluye la tarifa de chárter?

La tarifa base incluye el alquiler del yate, el uso del equipamiento a bordo, la presencia de la tripulación y la correspondiente cobertura de seguro.
Quedan excluidos los gastos operativos como combustible, provisiones, tasas de puerto, bebidas y actividades adicionales, que se gestionan a través del APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance).

La lista exacta de lo que está incluido o no será confirmada en el momento de seleccionar el yate.

¿Qué es el APA y cómo funciona?

El APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) es un fondo anticipado, normalmente equivalente al 25–35% del precio del chárter, destinado a cubrir los gastos operativos: combustible, provisiones, tasas de puerto, actividades de pago, bebidas y solicitudes personalizadas de los huéspedes.

Al finalizar la travesía, el Capitán entrega un informe detallado de los gastos. Los importes no utilizados se reembolsan al cliente, mientras que cualquier exceso se liquida al cierre del chárter.

¿Cuáles son las condiciones de pago?

Al firmar el contrato se requiere un pago del 50% del importe total.
El saldo — que incluye el APA, impuestos y posibles cargos adicionales — suele solicitarse aproximadamente cinco semanas antes del embarque (según el armador).
Los pagos se realizan mediante transferencia bancaria, el método estándar en el sector del chárter de lujo.

¿Puedo cancelar una reserva?

Sí, es posible cancelar, pero se aplican las condiciones previstas en el contrato.
En general, si el cliente renuncia, el Armador retiene los depósitos ya abonados.

Si la embarcación se vuelve a alquilar para el mismo período, el Armador reembolsa la cantidad recuperada, descontando las comisiones correspondientes.

Cada solicitud de cancelación se gestiona con la máxima transparencia.
Más detalles sobre las políticas aplicadas están disponibles contactándonos directamente.

¿Cómo elegir el yate más adecuado para mis necesidades?

La elección depende principalmente del tipo de experiencia que deseas vivir:

  • Yate a motor para el máximo confort, gran estabilidad y traslados rápidos.

  • Velero para una experiencia auténtica, silenciosa y ligada a la tradición de la navegación.

  • Catamarán para amplios espacios, mayor estabilidad y más privacidad.

BeBlue analiza el destino, el número de huéspedes, las preferencias personales y el presupuesto para seleccionar la opción más adecuada para ti.

¿Con cuánta antelación se recomienda reservar?

Para la temporada alta (Mediterráneo: junio–septiembre; Caribe: diciembre–abril), se recomienda reservar con varios meses de antelación para garantizar las mejores opciones disponibles.
También gestionamos solicitudes de última hora, siempre que la disponibilidad y los requisitos de licencia lo permitan.

¿Es posible personalizar el menú, las preferencias y las actividades?

Por supuesto. Antes de la salida recibirás un Preference Sheet, en el que podrás indicar tus gustos, necesidades alimentarias, alergias, preferencias de bebidas y las actividades que deseas realizar.
El Chef y el Capitán utilizarán esta información para crear una experiencia completamente a medida.

¿Cuántas personas pueden alojarse a bordo?

La mayoría de las embarcaciones puede albergar entre 6 y 12 huéspedes, según su configuración interior.
Algunos superyates de más de 80 metros, conformes a las certificaciones internacionales, pueden alojar hasta 36 personas.

¿Tendré conexión a Internet durante el chárter?

La mayoría de las embarcaciones ofrece Wi-Fi a bordo, a través de redes móviles o sistemas satelitales. La calidad y la velocidad del servicio pueden variar según la zona de navegación y la tecnología instalada.

¿Está prevista una propina para la tripulación?

La propina no es obligatoria, pero es una práctica habitual para expresar agradecimiento por el trabajo de la tripulación.
Las directrices internacionales toman como referencia un importe equivalente al 10–15% de la tarifa base del chárter.
