Captain Bryan Mason
After years of global exploration, Captain Bryan found his true home on the stunning waters of the Virgin Islands. His path to the helm was anything but ordinary, shaped by curiosity, adventure, and a desire to create meaningful experiences.

Bryan’s travels first took him through Mexico and Chile, where he worked as a volunteer, and later to England and Spain, where he studied philosophy and law. He then spent more than a decade practicing as an attorney in Chicago before trading his suit for sea boots and heading north to work in commercial salmon fishing in Alaska.

In 2016, Bryan relocated to St. Thomas, where his connection to the sea continued to grow. After Hurricanes Irma and Maria swept through the Caribbean, he received what he calls his “Category-5 nudge” to finally pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a captain.

Since then, Bryan has built a successful career in the yachting industry, completing more than 1,000 charters and welcoming over 6,300 guests aboard. Known for his calm professionalism, thoughtful hospitality, and strong nautical knowledge, he has consistently earned five-star reviews and enthusiastic guest praise.

With a deep love for the ocean, an adventurous spirit, and a commitment to exceptional service, Captain Bryan takes pride in helping guests experience the beauty of the Virgin Islands and create unforgettable memories on the water.

Being on Kasiopeja with Bryan and Adriane was like being in a cocoon of family fun. We were safe and fed and encased in vibes of happiness. Bryan helped to ensure that we saw and did all the things on the list, but also that we each did the things that made us see the beauty in the places we were. He knew amazing spots to snorkel and pause, but he also did not hesitate to jump in the water or go on a hike with us to new places. His love for the islands is palpable and it was contagious! Chef Adriane was such a kind and professional presence on our trip -- feeding both bodies and spirit with her delicious cuisine. We very much appreciated how hard she worked to make sure we had vegetarian food for the week! Thank you for an amazing week of laughter, stories, and so much fun!

~Shalini, Thomas, Kieran & Arya

July 2026

Our favorite memories were snorkeling The Baths, Soggy Dollar and Foxy's, the birthday celebration, floating in the water (Rob), soaking in the beauty of the islands, the water, sunrises and sunsets, and sailing. Captain Bryan thank you for taking great care of us every single day. Your calm confidence and knowledge, flexibility, and sense of humor made us completely at ease. You are an excellent sharer of your expertise. Adriane, thank you for the most wonderful meals --absolute works of art. You poured your heart into every meal that was delicious and brought us all to the table for more wonderful memories. We felt cared for all week. Thank you for welcoming us like family, Bryan and Adriane. You created an experience we will never forget, filled with laughter, sunsets, amazing meals, adventure, and countless memories!

~Beth & Rob

July 2026

We loved snorkeling The Baths (and anywhere for that matter!), chilling on the flybridge in the early morning, eating amazing meals, and most importantly unplugging from cell phone, TV, etc. . . . Loved watching the World Cup semi-finals at Foxy's. Traveling anywhere in the world, it's often the people you meet along the way that really change and impact your experience. Meeting Bryan and Adriane was no exception. They both made our experience exceptional because of the quality of people that they are! They went over and above to ensure a safe and memorable experience. Bryan's knowledge of the area and attention to service was always on point. Adriane is nothing short of amazing--to deliver the quality of food and beautiful presentation from a boat oven is mind-blowing. We are fortunate to have shared this week with our new USVI friends!! Thank you so much for all of it.

~Paul & Teresa

July 2026

We loved The Baths, Soggy Dollar Bar painkillers, and Foxy's for World Cup soccer. Loved seeing stingrays, pelicans, turtles, and sailing In the quiet of the sea. Bryan went out of his way to make our vacation so memorable. He was attentive to our every request and was the perfect captain, my captain! Adriane was a magician making the most amazing and beautiful food! Thank you for my birthday cookie! We couldn't ask for a better crew and experience in the BVI! Thanks Bryan and Adriane for helping us make so many memories!

~Karen & Pat

July 2026

Thank you for an amazingly beautiful trip. The itinerary was a perfect blend of relaxation and lively spots. The fact that Bryan listened attentively to even the small things and tried to make our dreams come true was much appreciated. Chef Adriane's food was amazing! It was beautiful, delicious, and a great variety. Thank you for making Karen's 60th celebration perfect for her, including the technological side of her birthday slideshow and making so many of our dreams and requests come true. We feel blessed to have had our paths cross with Bryan and Adriane both professionally and personally.

~Tony & Sally

June 2026

Our favorite memories were: "Loot, loot, loot!"; kneeboarding (stand up on it); The Baths; sailing lesson at Bitter End Yacht Club; our night at Cane Garden Bay; steaks on the boat; conch hunting in Anegada and watching the guide catch the lobster; movie night with Adriane's blondies, delicious!; and Soggy Dollar.

Thank you for the experience of a lifetime! We have made memories here we will never forget! Captain Bryan, thank you for putting your all into every single day; the trip wouldn't be the same without you! Chef Adriane, the food was amazing but the cool talks and "beachy" advice you gave is what we will carry with us! We hope to see you again and bless you both!!!

Do I need sailing experience?

No. Most luxury yacht charters include an experienced captain and professional crew who handle navigation and daily operations.

Can you recommend similar yachts?

Absolutely. If this yacht isn't the perfect match, our charter experts can recommend similar yachts based on your budget, group size, destination, and preferred amenities.
