Meet Your Crew

Your one of kind vacation in the Bahamas aboard Penny Jo begins with an amazing Crew. 

Meet Martin and Suzana.  They love their home country of Slovenia but have always had the wanderlust to explore beautiful places and experience new cultures.

Capt. Martin

Captain Martin started his career on sailboats and later gained valuable experience on various yachts, sailing boats, and catamarans. For many years, he has been navigating the seas and oceans as a professional, licensed Captain.  Guests return to charter again because of his positive and cheerful demeanor.  Having a prior career in engineering provided Martin with the experience needed to manage and care for the yachts creating a stress-free and safe charter.

In addition to sailing, Martin enjoys freediving and swimming to connect with the marine world.  In Martin’s words “Every moment at sea is an opportunity for new experiences and challenges, which I embrace with open arms. I enjoy connecting with people who wish to experience the beauty of the sea and provide them with unforgettable moments through my experience. My passion and love of the sea are the main reasons why I look forward to every new day on board.”

 

Chef Suzana

Chef Suzana is a passionate sailor and gourmet enthusiast. Always with a smile on her face and tons of energy, she takes pride in preparing meals for guests with her personal flair. Her love for the sea and nature has been with her since childhood so she jumped at the chance to live on a sailboat with Martin.
Suzana learned to cook in her mother's kitchen and as a self-taught chef, enhanced her passion with additional culinary courses. She is always trying new recipes, as cooking is a way she expresses herself. Her precision and sense of design are evident in her culinary creations and other aspects of her life.
Traveling is her passion, but she finds exploring new cultures and flavors not only enriches her life but inspires new culinary endeavors. 
In addition to her culinary and sailing adventures, she worked for several years in the service industry, gaining valuable experience in hospitality and understanding the importance of excellent service. Guests appreciate her hospitality, precision, and cleanliness, which has been reflected in their positive guest reviews.

 

Martin and Suzana are always ready for new challenges and adventures, as they believe life is best lived fully and passionately.

In addition to their roles as Captain and Chef on charter yachts, they owned a beautiful Beneteau 345 sailboat for five years which they sailed extensively from Greece to Italy, Spain, the Canary Islands, and back to Spain via Italy, Croatia, Slovenia.  They have also sailed and explored Australia, French Polynesia, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Adriatic Sea, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Aegean Sea. Exploring new places inspires them as a couple as they discover the true freedom and beauty of the sea.

They look forward to the opportunity to share their travels and nautical experiences with you and show you the beauty of the Exuma Cays.

    Our sailing trip through the Bahamas, specifically the Exumas, was simply fantastic! We saw so many marine animals, but the highlight for us was definitely the sea turtles. One of the most thrilling experiences was swimming with sharks – truly unforgettable!Onboard, we enjoyed delicious meals prepared by our friendly and attentive stewardess. The experienced captain ensured a safe and smooth journey, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the stunning surroundings.
    A huge thank you to the PennyJo team for an amazing vacation – we will definitely be back!

    I had an unforgettable week aboard the Penny Jo, exploring the breathtaking Exuma Islands in the Bahamas. The private chef on board was exceptional, preparing a variety of delicious meals that delighted us each day. The ship's captain was equally impressive, sharing fascinating insights into the history of the Bahamas and ensuring we experienced the best the islands have to offer.

    Some highlights of our trip included visiting Iguana Island to feed the iguanas, swimming with sharks, snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, and marveling at a sunken plane resting on the ocean floor. Every moment was an adventure, and the crew's attention to detail made it even more special.

    If you're looking for a luxurious, fun, and educational getaway, I couldn't recommend the Penny Jo more. This trip was truly a dream come true!

    Had the best and most unique experience on Penny Jo Sailing Charters. From when we were greeted at the airport to meeting the sailing hosts, and spending everyday exploring a new island... it was an unforgettable trip. Suzanna took such great care of us and catered the food to our likings throughout the trip. She always offered drinks and made sure we had everything we needed day and night. Martin was a great adventure guide always kept the days entertaining. He was very knowledgeable about the boat and the islands so we were always in good care and felt safe. I would recommend this charter to anyone and will be returning in the future!

    We loved our week on Penny Jo! Amazing boat with great accommodations. The captain, Martin, and chef, Suzane are knowledgeable, experienced, friendly and great to be around. Their confidence and skills put us and the other passengers at ease from the first day on board. One meal was better than the next, flavorful and healthy with a Mediterranean flare. The sights we saw were like nothing we have ever seen - crystal clear water with varying shades of blue and beautiful islands and beaches. The itinerary was perfect - land and sea parks with beautiful waterways, quiet, pristine beaches, snorkeling with abundant fish and turtles, kayak and paddle board spots and at the end of the day, happy hour on the Sun Chill tied to the boat.
    Five star vacation!

    Our trip to The Exumas Bahamas was definitely one for the books! It's hard to describe through words and pictures how beautiful and amazing this trip has been! Pictures just don't do it justice... you truly have to witness it in person to appreciate it.

    We had the privilege of sailing Penny Jo Sailing Charters with the most incredible staff and company. Martin and Suzana were an amazing crew and very professional with top notch hospitality. Martin, our captain was very knowledgeable and always put safety first, and Suzana's meals were absolutely delicious! Each day was better than the last, and the water was the most beautiful I have ever seen along with the islands and beaches. Penny Jo provides the best of both fun and relaxation...sunrises and sunsets from the bow to paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and more.
