unforgettable vacation
This vacation is customized to your desires; you want to relax and swim along with the turtles in secluded harbors surrounded by national parks of St John or explore the sites of the British Virgin Islands sites.
Prior to your visit, Captain Scott and Chef Nikki will join you on a video call to get to know you and the type of vacation you would like. They will guide you through the options to make it your vacation.
You will sleep on Sol Seeker for the duration of your stay and awake to fresh brewed coffee, or beverage of your choice, overlooking the beautiful waters of the Caribbean. That will be followed by a hearty breakfast and possibly a swim in the warm waters with the local colorful fish and turtles.
The evenings are filled with conversation and games on board. Look at the stars and watch the constellations pass by before retiring to your private room for a great night’s sleep.

The Crew
Scott, is a lover of adventure, land, air, and sea. He spent his life on land as an educator, teaching biology and earth science with a love of nature and exploration. He loves learning and teaching and has filled his mind with a plethora of trivia, nautical and otherwise. His aquatic experience started with SCUBA diving at the ripe, young age of 16. He learned to sail across the seasons on Lake Michigan, braving the chill of spring and fall while taking care of charter guests in the narrow summer months. He brings creativity and excitement to your adventure with a desire to always find something new and unique on every trip. Captain Scott is a certified mixologist creating amazing cocktails.
Nikki, was raised on the waters of the Mississippi River and has loved water her entire life. She grew up camping and boating, finding adventure and excitement in the water. A love of photography grew as she found more and more memorable pieces of nature to capture on film. Her love of food extends not only to the pleasure of the palate but also a respect for allergies and preferences across diets. She has spent the majority of her life as a Sign Language Interpreter, working in every field including medicine and travel just to name a few. For the past decade she has been learning and honing her sailing skills on the mercurial Lake Michigan, and taken those skills to the Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Caribbean to see the world from the water. In recent years she has taken new sailors under her wing to share her knowledge. She loves sharing both the thrill of the reefed sail and heavy heel as well as the peace and quiet of a hoisted sail and silenced motor.
Nikki is a nationally certified American Sign Language Interpreter, fluent in ASL. Nikki is the perfect match for charters that have a deaf person on board. The deaf client(s) gain access to communication for safety and accessibility. If they would like to take land tours, Nikki would be able to interpret for these tours as well. Nikki also enjoys teaching signs to children and adults alike. Guests love learning the sign for turtle, octopus, fish, sailboat, etc.
Chef Nikki specializes in allergy and specialty diets. She is extremely knowledgeable particularly in Gluten Free diets due to cooking for someone with Celiac’s Disease for decades. She also has a close family member that is vegan and members of her family with nut allergies. She has years of experience cooking keto, paleo and Whole 30. Chef Nikki is competent and happy to accommodate guest allergies and preferences.
Chef Nikki and Captain Scott taught sailing for years and love to teach guests that are interested in sailing. Chef Nikki’s passion is to teach beginners the basics. She is patient and has many techniques to help guests remember what they have learned. Captain Scott is an SLC instructor. The SLC is a prestigious international sailing certificate that allows sailors to bareboat ("rent" without needing to hire a captain) anywhere in the world. If sailors have experience and do the online coursework prior to charter, Captain Scott is able to do the on the water test for the SLC throughout their vacation and certify them if they pass the requirements.
Together they will sail you around the islands and keep your mind on vacation as you join them on Sol Seeker seeking adventure in the sun.

My 40th celebration on Sol Seeker was one of my favorite birthdays in my life. Whales, bubbly pool, turtles, squid and so much other great sea life!
Nikki‘s cooking is amazing. I rate each meal from excellent to phenomenal. Captain Scott made the trip for me. Willing to do anything I wanted as far as hikes or water sports. You both care, you bust your butts, and it did not go unnoticed. Thank you, thank you, thank you for an amazing 40th birthday trip. I will be incredibly disappointed if we do not spend another week on Sol Seeker again.

Thank you for an amazing vacation! The food was fantastic (and even better my dad could eat it). We had so much fun going from place to place, snorkeling, and swimming. You guys were so amazing. I don’t think that you guys could improve. Thank you for a fabulous vacation that we will remember the rest of our lives!

Thank you for sharing your home with us. You truly made your home our home for the past week. As a fastidious planner and organizer, I have never been happier or more satisfied by handing over the reins to the two of you. From the itinerary to the meal planning and execution, we were in the best hands. Every day was a new adventure and held something for everyone. It’s hard to please six people, but you did it with calmness, grace and competency. Thank you for taking the work out of my vacation.

Exceptional week sailing the BVI and Sol Seeker. Communication from the moment we booked was easy and so helpful. The moment we stepped aboard we were greeted with incredible warmth and helpful instruction. The food was exceptional and nightly creative table settings were exceptional!
Scott’s Captain expertise really shown as he chose the most secluded spots for our snorkeling. We preferred being away from the crowds and Scott took us to some really hidden gems. The boat is impeccably maintained and pristine. Our time on Sol Seeker was truly unforgettable. We can’t wait to start planning our next adventure on Sol Seeker with Nikki and Scott!

I had the honor of sailing on the Sol Seeker, with Captain Scott and First Mate/Chef Nikki.
What an awesome and amazing experience!! The beauty of the Virgin Islands was impressive in its own right but was surpassed by my time on the Sol Seeker.
We were pleasantly greeted at the Harbor with exuberant enthusiasm at my arrival.
Luggage was taken to the yacht ahead and later myself and 2 other guests were escorted to the yacht.
What an amazing and beautiful vessel. This was my first experience on a smaller vessel but found my accommodations as well as rest of the yacht to be very roomy and comfortable and always kept clean and safe.
The professionalism of both Scott and Nikki and their extreme knowledge was very impressive and I was always at ease.
As Chef - Nikki out did herself in meals or snacks she had prepared. She asked if there were favorites but honestly all were truly delicious.
Prior to our arrival we were contacted as to what we enjoyed eating or didn't favor and beverages we enjoyed. She truly listened and meals were prepared and beverages provided to meet our request. I will say if any favorites - desserts fall into that category.
A daily itinerary was planned and we got to experience some beautiful nature, ocean life and even got lucky and saw a deer.
Activities were available as snorkeling, kayaking of which I had never done before and instructions given prior to taking on either.
Also great games for evening time after dinner.
I have traveled to some extent in my life and have to say this is probably a highlight of my experiences.
Will I do it again - ABSOLUTELY!
Will I go on SOL SEEKER again - COUNT ON IT!
What a 50th Anniversary to remember! Food is beyond words! 5⭐️! We came with two good friends and left with four! Nikki and Scott are people persons. They are a treasure of information.

It’s been a week of pampering, rainbows, and turtles. We anticipated the trip for months and it did not disappoint. We were able to marvel at the beauty of the islands because everything was taken care of for us. It seemed Nikki and Scott were ready with what we needed before we knew we needed it. Nikki‘s gourmet meals were a feast for the eyes and the belly, but she was so much more than that.
Nikki was quick with a kind word when it was needed, and she never tired of answering another question. Scott did so many crucial jobs, quietly and skillfully. When we ventured out, we did not worry because Captain Scott was always there in his dinghy. He was also a wealth of knowledge on endless topics.
The beauty of the islands is exceptional. I saw so much, learned so much, enjoyed so much… A vacation of a lifetime! Nikki and Scott thank you for welcoming us into your home on Sol Seeker with such warmth.

Captain Scott and Chef Nikki-
Your home will forever be one of my favorite places on earth. Just thinking of Sol Seeker makes me smile to the point of making new wrinkles on my face. 😄 I’m sure my memories of the places we went will fade from this trip, but I will never forget the peacefulness and calmness I felt throughout this trip, all of which is thanks to both of you!

“Thank you” seems to be too feeble to express the gratitude for this trip. There’s something magical about the sea, the islands, a ship and her crew. You two are the most incredible for what you have built here. The food was amazing.
Every day, a new adventure! We are beyond grateful for your hospitality.

Thank you both so much for the most incredible week ever! I cannot imagine anything being better. Your hospitality, the food, the fun with you was even better than we could’ve expected. It’s hard to say just how amazing you both are. You truly made us all feel welcomed and comfy in your home.
I can’t even tell you how much I appreciated the fabulous meals and yummy adult beverages. Your painkillers are the best ever hands-down.
There were so many thoughtful little things you all did and even though they were “little things” they were huge and noticed, and sincerely appreciated. Our family will remember this week, this vacation and both of you for the rest of our lives. So thank you, thank you thank you for the moments, the memories, the vacation of a lifetime!

From the moment we arrived, Nikki and Scott treated us like family. Their hospitality, knowledge, accommodations, cleanliness, humor, cooking, and I could go on and on… Simply the best! 10 stars from us. We will be back!

What an education this week has been. Fun is expected on vacation and we had plenty of fun – but the education was a delightful surprise. This was my third sailing charter trip and all have been great. The difference in this trip was Nikki and Scott. They made the trip extra special and it wouldn’t have been the same without THEM.
With love and appreciation,

My absolute gratitude to Nikki and Scott for my recent charter. They did an amazing job.
Thank you Nikki and Scott for giving me one of the most incredible experiences of my life. There have been few times in my life where I have been able to "disconnect" and just experience the moment.
Nikki, your cooking was amazing! Every meal was an experience, even a plain English Muffin :)
Scott, you were so patient with me and scuba diving. I did not think I could do it but you stayed with me and helped me with my mask. You are also quite the bartender and Uno player.
The memories from this trip will be with me the rest of my life. Thank you for making it possible.

Dear Nikki and Scott –
Fun, laughter, adventure, and making new friends are but a few of the special things about being with you! I enjoyed the wonderful and creative dishes that Chef Nikki prepared, the tours you arranged, and mostly just “hanging“ with you. So thrilled for this chapter in your lives, and that we got to share it with you! Happy Sails to you!
