CAPTAIN Piers Helm (3 month rotational) April - June 2025 | Oct - Dec 2025 |Apr - Jun 2026 | Oct - Dec 2026
Born and raised in the British Virgin Islands, Piers Helm naturally developed a deep connection to the ocean. Most free time was spent on or in the sea, from freediving for lobsters to teaching windsurfing during the summers. A passion for the ocean emerged at a young age, with weekends dedicated to exploring the bays and islands of the BVI aboard power and sailing boats.
Piers began sailboat racing early on, traveling to other Caribbean islands to compete in regattas. His journey in the hospitality industry started during his early teenage years, progressing from bartending to captaining day sailboats across the Virgin Islands. The joy of sailing and entertaining led him to run term charters, advancing from bareboats to crewed yachts, and eventually managing several mega yachts.
After years of chartering larger yachts, Piers transitioned to performance multihulls, pursuing his love for high-speed sailing and freediving. Following seven years of managing private yachts, he decided to return to charter boats, reigniting his passion for sharing the beauty of the BVI and his love for the ocean with charter guests once again.
