Captain Peter Traver

Capt. Pete grew up in New England and spent most of his summers sailing and boating. Pete first fell in love with the ocean at a young age in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. After spending many days on the water with family sailing and fishing, he decided to make the ocean his career and attended The California Maritime Academy. Pete studied for four years and graduated with his 3rd Mates Unlimited license. After the academy he sailed all over on a variety of vessels ranging from private yachts to expedition cruise ships. Pete's favorite areas to sail are Alaska in the summertime, Baja Mexico in the winter & of course the BVls.

 

Chef Allison Sanchez

Chef Allie's love for food and nutrition started at a very young age and has since blossomed into a dedicated pastime. In college, she majored in Environmental Studies with a minor in Nutritional Sciences. Being a charter chef in the Caribbean was the perfect blend of both disciplines. Allie has been working in the Virgin Islands since summer 2023 and loves it more and more everyday. Traveling and immersing herself in new cultures has always been Allie's number one passion and she loves to recreate meals from the places she's visited. She is ready and excited to develop a menu that you are going to love!

Crew Reviews from Previous Yacht

  • May 2024

    Spent 6 nights on E-ticket with Pete and Allie with my family of four for our first trip to the BVI's. Cannot imagine a better way to see the BVI's and/or crew/ boat than the E-ticket. Our expectations were not only met, but exceeded in every fashion. They took the time to get to know us, what we liked, and helped us build an itinerary each day while providing plenty of options and a willingness to pivot at a moment's notice. Nothing was forced. Our family mantra of "no people" took on a life of its own which E-ticket delivered on in selecting places to anchor and our activities. Every meal prepared by Allie was both healthy (with tasty desserts) and fantastic and we were never left able to eat more. She even spent time with my daughters teaching/helping them to make homemade bread which last loaf we finished on the flight home. Pete's bartending kept a smile on all of our faces (especially mine). We felt like we were with extended family each day, in a good way, and were sorry to wave goodbye upon our departure. But look forward to our next adventure with them.

  • July 2024

    Our family (3 boys ages 22, 19 & 17) had the trip of a lifetime on board The Moorings E-Ticket. Our crew, Pete and Allie went above and beyond to plan a perfect itinerary, while avoiding the weather caused by Hurricane Beryl that was a few hundred miles away. Pete found sheltered bays to sleep in and planned fun activities on each of our stops that we would all enjoy. It was a perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.

    Allie amazed us with each meal she served. She nailed our preferences and served delicious food that was presented beautifully. Pete also makes a mean Margarita, Pina Colada, and Painkiller for those who enjoy a cocktail. We plan to return and cannot wait for the next time!

    Captain Pete and Chef/First Mate Allie were BEYOND fabulous! This was our first time on a catamaran in the BVI's. 2 of the other couples had been on one before so they were familiar with some of the destinations. Pete did an incredible job explaining and getting us to our destinations, leading our snorkle expeditions and making the best painkillers ever!

    Allie was an awesome first mate and her cooking was like nothing I've experienced before. She has an incredible gift as a self taught Chef! To say our week was magical is an understatement and we recommend Pete, Allie to anyone wanting a once in a lifetime experience!

    Kim

  • March 2024

    E Ticket with Captain Pete and First Mate Allie can't be beat. We had the perfect crewed yacht experience in the BVI's booked through the Moorings. Captain Pete worked his magic at the helm and bar making the best Painkiller in the BVI's. Allies 5 star cuisine did not disappoint and outshown any restaurant experience we had in the islands. Experiencing the beauty of the BVI's with the the best team made this a trip of a lifetime.

  • March 2024

    We just did a chartered boat in the BVI with The Moorings, with Captain Pete and Chef Allie and it was the trip of a lifetime! It was a family trip with 5 of us and we enjoyed every second on the boat, exploring the islands, adventuring and relaxing. Pete and Allie were amazing hosts in guiding us with activity options each day and serving incredible meals.

  • November 2023

    Our family had the best vacation of our lives. We have our Crew to thank for that, Pete and Allie. We had 5 star meals 3 times a day everyday created by Allie. We had wonderful excursions suggested and guided by Pete. We feel like Pete and Allie are part of our family now. See you next year!!!

  • November 2023

    This trip was absolutely incredible. With excellent staff, breath taking views, incredible food , and great people, this trip is a must. Highly recommend having Allie and Pete as your captains! They made the trip so amazing. So many fun activities including snorkeling, paddle boarding, swimming and more. Already want to start planning our next trip!

  • November 2023

    We had the best trip! Truly was a trip of a lifetime. We were on a boat from The Moorings for five days and it was incredible!

    We had the two best captains-Pete and Allie-can’t thank them enough for their hospitality, working with our needs and wants, and so professional. They cooked us the absolute best meals, too!

    We were in such good hands and they helped make it such a great experience!

    Highly recommend for vacation!

    The views are incredible and water to warm!
