Kendrick Oppenhuizen

Kendrick Oppenhuizen

Captain

American · English

Captain Kendrick Oppenhuizen
Captain Kendrick is an accomplished sailor with a deep passion for exploration, adventure, and life at sea. Most recently, he completed a solo transatlantic crossing from Florida to Scotland aboard Spindrift, his Southern Cross 35, marking a major milestone in his lifelong dream of sailing solo around the world. Now taking a brief pause from that pursuit, Kendrick is excited to return to the Caribbean for an unforgettable charter season.

A native of California, Kendrick grew up racing dinghies and instructing sailors from a young age, including adaptive sailing for individuals with disabilities. He also served as a volunteer Watch Leader aboard tall ships in Canada, an early introduction to leadership and seamanship that helped shape his career. With over 20 years of experience teaching sailing at all levels, from beginner dinghy sailing to offshore cruising, he brings both expertise and patience to every voyage.

Kendrick earned his sea legs running charters in California’s Channel Islands before working several seasons in the British Virgin Islands. His love for island life is matched by his enthusiasm for exploration, whether discovering hidden coves, hiking lush island trails, scuba diving vibrant reefs, or tracing historic routes once sailed by pirates evading the Royal Navy.

An avid traveler and reader, Kendrick has a special love for remote and wild places. Personal highlights include backpacking the Isle of Skye, snorkeling with sharks in Tahiti, and sailing through the Western Isles of Scotland.

For Kendrick, nothing compares to dropping anchor in a quiet bay and sharing stories and laughter as the sun sets over the sea. With a spirit of adventure and deep respect for the ocean, he invites guests to experience the magic of sailing and the timeless charm of the Caribbean.

Chef Mia Jackson
Chef Mia brings a beautiful balance of culinary expertise and a deep love for the ocean to every charter experience. Her journey to becoming a yacht chef has been shaped by two lifelong passions: the professional kitchens where she trained and the sailing adventures that have taken her across oceans.

Mia began her culinary career as the sole cook in a busy children’s nursery, preparing nutritious, balanced meals for up to 40 children daily. This role honed her ability to meet a wide range of dietary needs, including allergies, intolerances, and specific preferences, with care, creativity, and flexibility. It was there she developed a foundational skill that remains a hallmark of her cooking today: crafting menus that are both accommodating and inspired.

She later earned her SVQ Level 4 in Professional Cookery while working in award-winning restaurants, where she fine-tuned her attention to detail, flavor, and presentation. These years instilled a love for high-quality cooking and the joy of delighting others through food.

Sailing has always been in Mia’s blood. As a child, she sailed halfway around the world with her family, sparking a lifelong love for the sea. In recent years, she has logged more than 6,000 nautical miles aboard both monohulls and catamarans, sailing from South Africa to the Caribbean. Along the way, she mastered provisioning in remote locations, using local ingredients creatively, and preparing comforting, flavorful meals in challenging conditions.

For Mia, cooking on a yacht is about more than food; it is about creating unforgettable moments. Whether serving breakfast at anchor, vibrant sharing plates after a swim, or a beautifully plated dinner under the stars, she takes pride in tailoring each dish to guests’ tastes and needs.

When she is not in the galley, Mia enjoys being on deck, hiking ashore, or unwinding with good music and a book. Her calm presence, passion for service, and love of land and sea make her an exceptional addition to any charter.

Captain Kendrick and first mate/chef Mia were very helpful with our initial Zoom meeting before the trip. They were very thorough in discussing food and drink options, as well as island locations.

 

Captain Kendrick was phenomenal. His knowledge of the islands and great snorkeling spots was incredible. First mate/chef Mia was outstanding. Her food was delicious, healthy, and beautifully presented. Chef Mia presented amazing meals, and everything was delicious and beautiful.

 

We couldn’t ask for a better crew! Thank you to both Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia. They made our trip extra special.

 

We loved the cruising area! There were really good snorkeling spots and a lot of time in the water. We loved the additional hiking Captain Kendrick showed us. He was so attentive and made us feel safe at all times.

 

We wish we could come back next week, but it will probably be a few years to save up for this type of trip. Truly a trip of a lifetime.

Kendrick and Mia - Thank you for a wonderful week here in the BVIs. We appreciate all your hard work and for taking such good care of us this week. There are so many things to highlight but what was very special were all the special places you took us. Each beach was gorgeous. We appreciate the professionalism and expertise you demonstrated each day, each meal, and each destination. You both made it so worry-free. That made for a very special time for us and so we could relax and enjoy this beautiful place.

With gratitude, Matt

Kendrick and Mia - you both are such professionals at what you do… from guiding us safely through the islands to providing beautifully prepared and nutritious meals! Thank you! You compliment each other and work seamlessly as a team. It was fun listening to you share your stories and on the flip side you showed a genuine interest in all of us. We could wholeheartedly recommend your charter to others! Thank you, thank you!

I could stay another 10 days with Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia!! This is my third time catting the BVI and the crew makes all the difference. Captain Kendrick and Chef Mia were over-the-top fabulous. From adjusting to our timelines, long talkative dinners, to our pranks and many personalities.

So much to give kudos to on this trip! All the islands and adventures, including going into deep water with horses. galloping multiple times down Anegada beach, and our great tour guide Captain Kendrick driving us around in the back of a truck!!

At the baths, Captain Kendrick timed the visit perfectly, keeping them mystical as we explored without people pressure.

From jumping off Willy T’s, to dancing all night at Saba Rock, to making my birthday and our friends’ anniversary super special. From sailing, to partying at Soggy Dollar to the “party decorated” table.

Chef Mia’s creations I will crave! We hope to sail with Chef Mia and Captain Kendrick next year!

Thank you, thank you, thank you BOTH!

Hugs, Kimberley❤️

March 2026

Kendrick and Mia, what a trip! We could not have had a better Captain and Chef extraordinaire! All the destinations were great, and your willingness to accommodate our needs and be flexible was great!

I will look for your boat when I come back to the Virgins! 

Thank you both!

Mia and Kendrick - well this trip was way more amazing than I ever expected!

Mia, the food was spectacular! We have never eaten this well in our lives – Jen wants me to up my game because of you!

Kendrick, your ‘captaining’ was great – you kept us at ease the whole time. Whatever we needed, you were there helping us out. Definitely will go down as one of our favourite trips!!
