BAREFEET RETREAT Yacht Charter Catamaran

Sailing alongside each other in Tahiti, Croatia, Greece, and most recently BVI - Jamison and Orlagh realized they made a pretty epic team. They both love to travel and bring their experiences from around the globe to their guests. Jamison believes the best way to experience a place is through the food. She has been lucky enough to travel to over 30 countries and has been able to take in and learn from restaurants and other yacht chefs around the world. Orlagh believes the best way to create a good environment onboard is by finding beautiful bays to explore around the islands and a little bit of spontaneity always makes for the best memories as no two charters will ever be the same. Of course some good story telling always brings ambiance to a great level for everyone, between the two girls there will be plenty of stories to share and walk away with.

The pair love to entertain & wether they are at home with friends or on board with guests they make it their mission to make your time unforgettable. Both have a passion for the ocean and sea life, and love exploring every inch of each bay and island they visit to find the best spots for their guests. As avid divers and snorkelers, they know exactly where to go to spot your next turtle or eagle ray or catch a tuna!
Together the pair make great company for any occasion, and their go with the flow attitude allows them to tailor each charter to be as fast paced

Orlagh (Captain)

Born and bred in Ireland, Orlagh has always had an unwavering passion for the outdoors, and travel. Being able to horse ride since a very young age Orlagh was never seen without muddy boots and a horse somewhere nearby. At every opportunity, Orlagh would leave Ireland to compete with her horses abroad, this led her to see new cultures and sparked an interest to want to travel further. Starting her first job as a long-haul air hostess for ‘Emirates airline’ for over five years in her early 20’s, predominantly working in premium cabins for one of the worlds most prestigious airlines, Orlagh experienced a lot of the world ́s countries and vast cultures.
Orlagh greatly missed the ocean and nature, so she took some time away from flying to get back to it. She swapped her wings for sails and spent a summer working for a charter company, offering sailing trips around Greece. Naturally she fell in love with sailing and knew this is what she wanted to pursue as a life and career. Ever since then, Orlagh has been working as a professional captain in the Mediterranean and Caribbean.

Jamison (Chef)

Jamison brings a classic Canadian spirit to every charter, complete with a sprinkle of "eh" and an abundance of "sorry." Her culinary journey began while working in remote reforestation camps of Northern Canada, where she took on the role of head chef early on. Since then, she's found her way to the water, working aboard a superyacht in Europe and spending several charter seasons on catamarans across the Mediterranean and Virgin Islands.

Guests on board can expect a dining experience that’s both refined and relaxed, inspired by the warmth of her Canadian roots and passion for bringing people together. Jamison specializes in crafting menus that highlight fresh, local ingredients, tailored to suit your tastes and dietary needs. Her approach to cooking blends creativity with comfort, so whether it’s a vibrant Mediterranean feast, a cozy Canadian-inspired dish, or a light, healthy lunch on deck, each meal is designed to make you feel at home on the water.

Coming from a family of seven, Jamison knows the power of food in creating connection and joy. Her goal is to make each meal a place for everyone to relax, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company – maybe with a cocktail or two.

Outside the galley, Jamison’s passions include running, snowboarding, and cheering on the Toronto Maple Leafs—at least when they're winning. Her adventurous spirit and Canadian warmth make her an exceptional addition to your charter experience.
