OCEANA

Gavin Post
It is my pleasure to introduce myself to you and welcome you onto the sensational sailing yacht Oceana!
I love sailing! I learned this about myself at aged 16 when I first caught the breeze off the beautiful but harsh South African coastline. My journey has taken me past Pirate infested coastline, to rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous in Monaco, to having my very own "Wilson" experience sailing across the Atlantic Ocean (with many stories in-between), ALL leading up to the moment I get to charter for you!
I am a captain by profession with a passion for entertaining! In addition to sailing and entertainment, I am a very avid Scuba diver with years of professional experience leading dives and instructing students around the Caribbean.
This year marks my 5th season in the Caribbean. The fish are my friends, the coral reefs contours are my familiar neighborhoods and the evening anchorages provide the front row seats for some of the best sunsets you have ever seen!
Let's all step foot off the rock, leave our shoes on the dock, and forget about the clock. It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
With all sincerity, I am looking forward to boarding time with all of you! From me to you, have a safe journey and we will see you all onboard soon! Best wishes from Captain Gav.

Growing up on the coast of South Africa, the ocean was my first love—its rhythm, mystery, and boundless horizon always called to me. But it was my roots in the service industry that instilled in me a deep appreciation for creating memorable experiences and genuine connections.
From a young age, cooking has always been a passion of mine. Whether helping in the kitchen at my family’s guest lodge or experimenting with flavors on my own, food has always been my way of expressing creativity and bringing people together.
My path took an exciting turn when I joined a yacht crew in Europe, attending the Palma Super yacht Cup. I quickly fell in love with the sense of freedom and adventure it offered. Life at sea gave me the chance to combine my passions—crafting meals in the galley while enjoying the sound of the sails.
I decided to make the leap to the British Virgin Islands—and that’s where everything clicked. The island lifestyle, rich with culture, flavor, and natural beauty, captured my heart completely. It deepened my love for hospitality, community, and, of course, food.
I am now blending my lifelong passion for cooking with my love of adventure, service, and the sea. Whether it's through a thoughtfully prepared dish or a shared sunset sail, I strive to create experiences that leave people with a sense of wonder—and a full heart (and belly).
