Captain Sean O'Grady
Captain Sean discovered a love for the ocean at an early age while sailing with his father, setting the course for a lifelong connection to the sea. After a brief time away from the water, he returned to sailing in the San Francisco Bay, where he quickly immersed himself in both racing and charter work.
Since 2018, he has worked with USA76, a former America’s Cup IACC yacht, gaining invaluable experience aboard one of the sport’s most iconic vessels. His maritime background also includes commercial fishing in Alaska, sport fish guiding, and time aboard large private yachts. He later served as both Maintenance Director and Captain for a pair of Santa Cruz 70s in Monterey Bay, where he spent two years overseeing operations and delivering unforgettable sailing experiences.
Now based in the Caribbean, Captain Sean brings his expertise, enthusiasm, and easygoing nature to every charter. He holds a 100 Ton Near Coastal Master License with STCW, Sail, and Assistance Towing endorsements, and places the highest priority on safety, service, and guest enjoyment. His philosophy as a captain is simple: create a fun, relaxed atmosphere where everyone can laugh, connect, and fully embrace the beauty and adventure of island life.

Sean and Julia
We just wanted to drop a quick note to say a massive thank you for making our catamaran adventure in the BVI absolutely amazing!
“Chaun”- your sailing skills are top-notch (much better than Eric's) and your competitive spirit added much excitement to our trip. We loved every single spot you took us to and your stories/jokes made the trip even more fun.
Julia- your cooking blew us away! Every meal was a highlight and we’ll definitely be dreaming about your amazing desserts. Thank you for taking good care of us and always being ready to help us out of the tender, just as we are about to arrive
You both made this trip unforgettable and we're so grateful for all the hard work and good vibes. Can't wait to see it again with you someday!
Best,

Crew Review From Previous Yacht
Sean and Julia –
Thank you for making our time sailing through the BVI so incredible! Sean, your expertise and local knowledge of the islands was invaluable. Every spot you recommended was perfect, though Clint may have some PTSD from his pirate bite at Willy T's. You kept us laughing and feeling at ease, even when we were attempting "creative" dingy entrances.
Julia, your thoughtfulness and amazing food made every meal an event and something to look forward to. Thanks for taking such good care of us and always being ready with a helpful hand and pitcher of delicious drinks!
You two make an awesome crew! Thank you for a truly memorable week for us six friends. Keep spreading those good vibes and good luck with any crabs you encounter :)

Dear Captain Sam and Chef Carrie,
It's a sad day, but depart we must. I had such a wonderful time. It was all that I had hoped it would be when we planned the trip. The food and drink were great, sailing for the 1st time was amazing. Glad I got this d"bucket list" in and hope to travel with you again sometime. One of the best parts of the trip was getting to know you two wonderful people (and a little about your lives and family). Thanks so much for a lovely week.

Unbelievable trip! From the constant views, entertainment, laughs, and knowledge -I can't thank you enough. I learned way more than expected about BVI, sailing, fishing, space! and more.

Sam and Carrie,
What an incredible week! And to think- we almost didn't get to come at all. Thank you guys so much for giving us your week off and sharing La Speranza with us after our other boat was cancelled due to mechanical problems. We honestly feel like hanging out with y'all was an "upgrade." We enjoyed getting to know you and hear your story, and our whole family enjoyed being with you. Carrie- thank you for your hospitable spirit and wonderful meals. Sam- thanks for your energy and fun. This trip was just what our family needed during a really busy season of life. Lots of relaxation and quality time, punctuated by bouts of activity- snorkeling, hiking, shopping- with some great meals in between. It truly has been a blessing, a time of refreshing for us. Thank you. Y'all please holler at us if you're ever in Mississippi!

Sam your dollar for your gopro and snorkel expertise is coming in the mail. it was fun sitting around at night chatting and playing euchre. Thank you for sharing your boat life with us.

Sam and Carrie,
Thank you so much for an incredible trip! We all had the best time and could not be more grateful for Carrie's wonderful cooking (sushi, potato pancakes and birthday cake were some of my favorites) and for Sam's snorkeling adventures, with cuttlefish, eels, sea turtles and stingrays. This was everyone's favorite vacation, in large part due to your hospitality. We wish you windy adventures and warm water in the coming year. Thank you so much for the wonderful week!

Sam and Carrie-
Thank you for making our 20th anniversary so unique and special. We've been talking about this trip for a long time and it lived up to every expectation -and more- than we ever had. From the gorgeous sunsets to amazing snorkeling to the amazing meals by Carrie and the sometimes funny jokes by Sam (?) we were fully engaged, entertained and excited to wake up each day for our next adventure. It was truly the trip of a lifetime. That said, we want to come back :) Hopefully someday Siena and Riley will read this entry with us and we can reminisce together while celebrating new experiences together.
Thank you and See you Soon!!

Carrie and Sam,
Thank you for providing an idyllic, restful paradise for us to celebrate our friend's birthday in luxurious fashion. We are grateful for your delicious meals, snacks, cocktails and desserts. Snorkeling was epic, though the day at Anegada was the highlight for all. We are leaving with our favorite memories and new friendships with you both. Safe travels throughout your days, and cheers to more wonderful voyages throughout your life.
With love,
Missy, Rona, Jen, Duane, Joelle, Shorty
