Meet our Crew
Captain Mark
Meet Mark, your accomplished and adventurous captain aboard Ripple. Born in Japan and raised in England by American parents, Mark has always possessed a deep-seated passion for voyaging and all things nautical.
Mark's sailing journey began at the tender age of 13 when he completed his RYA day skipper course on a 32' sloop, navigating the picturesque French and English coasts. His love for the sea led him to pursue a degree in Marine Biology and Coastal Ecology at the University of Plymouth, where he also obtained his Yacht Master certification. During this time, Mark worked as a local dive guide and RIB pilot, honing his skills and knowledge of the marine environment.
Driven by a desire to explore the world, Mark embarked on a career as a professional dive guide and instructor, working in various locations across the globe. With thousands of dives under his belt, including a remarkable 4.5-hour dive to 260' on a rebreather to explore a war wreck in Vanuatu, Mark's expertise in the underwater realm is unparalleled.
Over the past 17 years, Mark has been an integral part of the luxury yachting industry, earning his MCA Master 3000 and Y4 engineer licenses. One notable highlight of his career was his time spent with the race vessel 'Earthrace,' where he and a team of four crew members circumnavigated the globe in a record-breaking 60 days aboard a 78' motor yacht – a World Record that still stands today!
As your captain on Ripple, Mark brings his wealth of experience, knowledge, and passion for exploration to ensure that your charter experience in the Virgin Islands is nothing short of extraordinary. His love for the region and its vibrant culture, coupled with his expertise in all aspects of yachting, guarantees an unforgettable adventure filled with fun, discovery, and natural wonders.
With Mark at the helm, you can rest assured that your journey aboard Ripple will be safe, exciting, and tailored to your every desire. Get ready to embark on a voyage like no other, guided by a true master of the seas.
Chef Kathryn
Born and raised in Central Florida, Chef Kathryn developed a deep love for the ocean early on—surfing and fishing along the coast before eventually taking up sailing as an adult. Her natural affinity for the water has grown over the years through racing regattas on the Chesapeake Bay, sport fishing, and crewing passages aboard private yachts. These experiences have awarded her thousands of nautical miles throughout the Caribbean and along the Eastern Seaboard of the United States.
Kathryn’s culinary journey began at just 14, working in a local deli after school. She quickly rose through the kitchen ranks, eventually stepping into line cook roles in high-volume restaurants, where she thrived under pressure. After time away to explore other ventures and raise a family, she returned to hospitality to run her family’s bar—reigniting her love for crafting meaningful experiences through food and service.
Over time, Kathryn’s relationship with food evolved into something deeply holistic. Cooking became a way to connect people, honor local environments, and nourish both body and soul. Inspired by her extensive travels, her cooking style is eclectic and intuitive—she may serve fresh ceviche one day and prepare local fare from the port the next. She is passionate about clean, fresh ingredients and tailoring every meal to guest preferences and dietary needs, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and allergy-conscious requests.
A registered nurse as well as a chef, Kathryn embodies the intersection of care and cuisine. After the COVID pandemic, she leaned into travel, cooking, and mindful living—which eventually led her to the world of yachting, where all her passions converge.
When she’s not in the galley, Kathryn enjoys staying active and grounded—spending time with her three children, camping, fishing, hiking, skiing, golfing, going to concerts, and working out. For her, cooking aboard a yacht is not just a job—it’s a mindful labor of love, delivered with warmth, skill, and a genuine joy for making every moment onboard unforgettable.
“Cooking is not just what I do. It’s a mindful labor of love—to create something with quality ingredients, that is nourishing and delicious, tailored to the client’s preferences and conscious of the environment.” – Chef Kathryn
Deckhand / Stew Caitlin Green
With a deep love for the ocean and a drive for adventure, Caitlin Green has spent the past three years working aboard sailing and power catamarans along the East Coast and beyond. She has logged over 8,000 nautical miles, from the quiet anchorages of Chesapeake Bay to Fort Lauderdale’s busy waterways and through the locks of the Panama Canal.
As a Deck/Stew, Caitlin brings a solid foundation in both exterior and interior yacht operations. Whether handling lines, assisting with water sports, standing watch, or setting up for guest arrivals, she approaches every task with focus and enthusiasm. She’s equally at home mixing an Espresso Martini as she is running the deck, and her dedication to seamanship and safety is reflected in her recent achievement of a 200 Ton Captain’s License.
Earlier in life, Caitlin worked in hospitality, first waitressing and later managing a bed and breakfast overlooking a bay known for its whales. Those experiences honed her eye for detail and service, skills she now brings to life at sea.
Joining Ripple is a proud step for Caitlin, and she’s eager to help create smooth sails, good memories, and plenty of laughs for guests along the way.

Guest Testimonials
November 2025
The absolute BEST vacation we have ever taken—and we have been on 30+ vacations. Mark, Kate, and Nela were a huge part of why we all loved our adventure. Everything was perfect. The yacht was clean and well-maintained. Our cabins were comfortable. The cockpit was comfortable, and there was enough shade. Nela cooked us 5+ delicious breakfasts, lunches, dinners, appetizers, and snacks. Mark and Kate were amazing as well. Kate served us hand and foot, and Mark (main Captain) took us to the coolest places and was overall awesome. I want to go back! The pace and itinerary were perfect. 5/5 Stars!
Mike

My wife Judy, Three sons and their wives and myself had a fantastic vacation on our
catamaran cruise aboard Ripple 11-18 January 2025. This was our third catamaran
chartered cruise with our broker over the past 15 years and was by far the
best trip of all!!
Our Ripple crew of three was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Captain Mark
has impressive sailing and diving experience and our party of eight quickly trusted
his leadership. He managed his assistant crew members in exemplary manner with
respect and kindness. He demonstrated total commitment to the safety and comfort
of his guests aboard Ripple. For example, without any prompting or requests from
our party, he quietly traveled by dinghy to shore on two mornings to restock beer
for the ship’s bar without additional charge or negative judgment. The scuba diving
opportunity for two of us who are certified divers was expected but the Discover
Diving course under Mark’s tutelage as a PADI Divemaster for our middle son Joe
was unexpected and gave him a wonderful introduction to scuba during three dives
on this trip. He was thrilled to have this opportunity and experience.
First mate and Chef Michael did a phenomenal job in the galley with sumptuous and
satisfying meals for us and he navigated the vegetarian requirements of two of our
daughter in laws without a glitch. He provisioned the charter perfectly according to
our menu preferences and his own extensive experience. Unplanned highlight
culinary experiences include fresh sashimi from fresh caught fish
on an outrigger trawling line and lure as well as fresh baked Sourdough bread
accompanying several meals! Jeanique is a friendly and patient Second Mate and
First Rate Bartender and was extremely attentive to us, never leaving an empty
glass during evening happy hours.
Owner operator Mark Russell maintained an impeccably clean and comfortable yacht
with excellent ventilation with well functioning air conditioning on warm nights and
open hatches and sea breezes in the mornings. Our sailing itinerary was perfect as
we reached from St Thomas and St John USVI, through BVI Norman, Cooper and
Virgin Gorda Islands and out to and back from Anegada then to Jost Van Dyke and
final night on the water off St John. Judy and I agree with our trip highlights being
touring the north shore beaches of Anegada on the Mini Mokes followed by a tasty
lobster dinner and the awesome hike and swim in the Bubbly Pool at Jost.
This family vacation exceeded our expectations and made wonderful lifelong
memories. Even after arriving home the crew of Ripple reached out to us sending
additional photos and trip highlight video. Our broker provided excellent
service and prompt response to any questions we had.
Regards,
Pete and Judy N

Blessed To Get this Team
How incredibly blessed we were to get this team. The layout of the boat is great which was the initial reason for the choice of Ripple. Although, what made the trip special and memorable was the team.
Captain Mark took the time to meet me at our place in Florida on his off week - classy. His easy going personality is perfect for our family.
Chef listened to our preferences and kept 2 big boys and the girls satisfied with a variety of delicious healthy and beautifully presented meals.
Damon, the jack of all trades made the trip for my adult children. It wouldn't have been the same without him. He is a combination of fun and hard work.
All Were Amazing
You all were amazing! You made us feel we were all friends enjoying a great journey in the Virgin Islands.
Thank you for the great memories. Everything was so well planned.
