Captain Glen
A sea gypsy with a wanderlust soul, Captain Glen is a Canadian-born American expat who has been based in the Virgin Islands for 20 years and calls his world-voyaging sailing yacht home. Glen lives to travel, exploring the world and its diverse cultures, thriving on good vibes and positive energy. Nurturing his lifelong love of the water, his sailing adventures include the entire Caribbean Sea, Central and South America, the Panama Canal, the South Pacific, New Zealand, Australia, Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, and the Mediterranean. Having had thousands of salty nautical miles slip under his keel, Captain Glen is considered one of the most experienced charter captains in the Caribbean.
Raised in Oakville, Ontario, Glen never quite adjusted to the freezing temperatures of his homeland. At the age of 20, he immigrated to the United States and eventually made his way to the tropics, pursuing a highly successful career as a professional hotelier. Along the way, Glen managed various luxury boutique resorts throughout the Caribbean, including those on the islands of Vieques (Puerto Rico), Virgin Gorda, Bermuda, St. Lucia, Jamaica, Dominica, and Nevis.
Throughout his epic adventures, Glen’s heart has always remained in the Virgin Islands, where he now shares his love of sailing and passion for the sea. Glen has an extensive and intimate knowledge of the waters, people, and places across the entire Caribbean, especially the Virgin Islands (U.S., British, and Spanish). His familiarity includes all the anchorages, snorkel and dive sites, land and sea highlights, hiking locations, and beach bars. Over the years, Glen has developed countless friendships and connections with locals and expats throughout the Virgin Islands and the greater Caribbean.

Alex turned her dreams into reality when she seized an opportunity to embark on an epic sailing adventure to the far side of the world, partnering with Captain Glen. Over the course of her journey, Alex has sailed more than 15,000 nautical miles, exploring the stunning waters of Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, and, of course, the Caribbean. Proud to call the Caribbean her second home, Alex now takes great delight in sharing wonderful meals, exciting island adventures, engaging conversations, hearty laughs, delicious cocktails, and breathtaking sunsets with her guests.
