Experience, Experience & More Experience
We are Kristian & Marianne, and this is our business. We are Danish citizens and have been sailing together for over 30 years. Marianne holds an International Yacht Master 3rd Degree license and Kristian holds an International Yacht Master 1st Degree license. We designed and built two larger sailboats from scratch and we've sailed the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, the English Channel, the Mediterranean, the Pacific Ocean & the Carribean. In fact, we sailed across the Atlantic Ocean twice, once in a boat that we built. We have chartered boats for customers like you for 27 years in the Bahamas, Central America, and the Virgin Islands where we have been for the past 22 years.
We understand customer service and care about your catamaran vacation experience in a way that larger companies and younger crews simply cannot. Our extensive experience with boats and chartering will give you a greater peace of mind and allow you to more fully relax and enjoy your vacation.
You are the best host’s we have ever had! Every little thing you did made us feel at home and pampered at the same time. You took us to the most wonderful spots for snorkeling and enjoying the views. We love your boat and the two of you! The food was fantastic! Thank you so much!

This is difficult to put into words just how unique our time has been on Breanker and with the two of you. Your patience, obvious experience and talent on deck and in the kitchen, and your infectious smiles are unparalleled. I can only say thank you for sharing part of your lives with us. People are truly blessed to have spent time with the two of you. We share that blessing.

Safety from In-Depth Knowledge
We designed and built our first sailing yacht, a traditional 68' Baltic Trader, Nana, in Denmark in the seventies and set off in 1983 on a four-year cruise in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. We sold Nana and we started the project of designing and building Casador, a luxurious 68' aluminum sloop which became the cover of Cruising World in Feburary 2003 shown in the picture here. We chartered Casador for many years, giving us a unique perspective on exactly what makes a boat great for customers.
We used that knowledge to completely retrofit Breanker for your pleasure and safety. We know our boat to a level of detail that many charter captains will never understand.
Thank you both for a wonderful week – We are speechless!!!
I am so glad we went with you for our charter! You made the trip so easy for us but we know the two of you worked so very hard. Your experience shows and we had complete confidence in your knowledge, skill and judgment. You made us feel safe and took excellent care of our young children – our most valuable treasures!

Marianne and Kristian. Once again you have outdone yourselves in making our trip enjoyable. We feel like you are part of our extended family now! Each of our five trips with Kristian and Marianne has been spectacular ? great folks, food, scenery and company. Our family trip was enjoyed by all. Little harbor has the very best snorkeling and is Marianne?s favorite spot. Riley exceeded on the paddleboard and John made a valiant effort. All agreed that White Bay was the best beach in BVI. We have remained friends over the years and value our relationship with Kristian and Marianne.
Dear Kristian and Marianne, thank you for a wonderful week at sea. The views were incredible as well as the boat. This was a very unique experience for Riley and I. You made us feel very welcome and at ease. The food was awesome and I enjoyed trying out new things! We will keep up with you on Face book.
To two fabulous hosts who felt more like family. You made me feel so welcome. The food and the company I give you all the stars in the sky. Thank you for such a wonderful voyage on the Breanker. Looking forward to next time J

Dear Kristian and Marianne, thank you for making this trip so, so extraordinary! From the food to the smiles, I?ll remember this trip forever. Thank you for taking so great care of us. We will miss you both. Happy Easter, all our love.
Thank you Kristian and Marianne for another wonderful vacation. You take such good care of us that we don?t want to go home! The company was delightful and the food delicious. We can?t wait to come back for another charter. We love you both.

Well, we?ve had another wonderful trip?. with friends this time. Thank you so much for taking such good care of all of us ?old folks?!! Again we couldn?t have asked for any thing better?. food, hospitality, graciousness? all just right. Thank you especially for the lobster bisque and the wonderful lamb chops!! The only problem was we had to wait 6 weeks before we could be back onboard with y'all. Love to you both and wishes for a successful end of season.
Dear Kristian and Marianne. Thank you so much for your kind hospitality. You two are gracious hosts who made us feel at home and so very welcomed. We have all had a wonderful time this week with ya?ll on Breanker and are so looking forward to seeing you again for another smooth sailing vacation. You two are such a wonderful team with great food, wonderful sailing and delicious blueberry cheesecake to boot! (Hopefully Scott can make it next time.)
It?s a rather sad morning as we draw near to St. John to end another beautiful time with you both on Breanker. We?ve enjoyed our time with you again and hate to see it come to an end. You both are consummate hosts. Thank you for sharing your boat and yourselves with us. My favorite breakfast place in the world is the cockpit of Breanker wherever she may be anchored or moved.
