"Captain Doug fell in love with the
water at a very young age in northern
Michigan,
where he spent his childhood in and around the Great Lakes. Doug began
charter sailing yachts at the age of 17, and has not slowed down since.
His love for yacht sail vacation is now greater than his love for me
(Jessica). After graduating with a Bachelors Degree from Michigan State
University he moved to the Caribbean to follow his dreams to become
a professional caribbean yacht charter captain and reconnected with
his family roots.
With over a decade of charter sail vacation experience, he is a very
skilled sailor and navigator with an expansive knowledge of the Caribbean's
Virgin Islands anchorages and cays, which gives Captain Doug's Virgin
Island yacht charter folk better anchorages than the next. Doug is as
comfortable under the water as he is on land. He is an avid free-diver
and PADI Advanced Diver, and looks forward to making you feel at home
in the water and aboard Prima Donna 2 when you are enjoying your sail
vacation with us.
