SCUBA DOO 55'

Hazel and Yah Yah Scuba Doo 52' Reviews

June 2025 BVI Charter



Hazel and YaYa were fantastic. Hazel's skippering ability, combined with the boats equipment, let us do more things than I have done previously. He also accompanied us on land tours (the Baths) and gave us a personal tour. YaYa is a great chef/host. Her cooking is amazing – the best I've ever had on a charter like this. Her passion and talent for cooking really came through. Hazel and YaYa were equally good making drinks. They have a lot of energy and really interacted with my family. We had a lot of fun with them!

Yah Yah & Hazel,



This trip didn’t disappoint! You two were a delight. Hazel, the care you took of us was beyond – you vanished my dive anxiety by your calm and peacefulness.



Yah Yah, the food was 5-star. Your catering is to feed people! Your love of food shines through.



Please look us up when you’re in Los Angeles – we would love to see you.



Thanks again!



– Bill & Kathy



I don’t have the words to express how wonderful and amazing this trip was. You both go above and beyond all!



Hazel, thanks for ‘babysitting’ me on our dives – I would have missed out on so much.



Yah Yah, the food was incredible – over-the-top wonderful!



The bartender did a spectacular job as well!



We thank you for a personal experience. And… we hope to see you again soon!

“We had a wonderful, relaxing week. Hazel and Yah Yah went out of their way to make it the trip we hoped for. Lots of sailing, perfect spots for snorkeling, swimming, and paddleboarding.



Yah Yah produced beautiful and delicious meals.



Very sad that the week is over.



Wish you the best in all your adventures!

It was by far one of our best trips ever! You guys were so fun and did an amazing job of taking care of us. The food was so good! The drinks too! It was so relaxing, and you did a great job of showing us the best places! I can’t wait to do it again. We would love to take you out on our 25 foot Malibou boat back home. If you are ever in Minnesota, call us.

Absolutely incredible experience aboard Scuba Doo, the Lagoon 50 catamaran in the British Virgin Islands! From the moment we stepped on board, Hazel and Ya Ya made us feel like we were on top of the world. Their hospitality was unmatched, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect. Ya Ya’s cooking was out of this world – every meal was a culinary masterpiece, and I was blown away by the variety and freshness of the dishes.



The activities were incredible as well! Scuba diving in the crystal-clear waters was an absolute highlight – I got to explore vibrant coral reefs and swim alongside octopus, sea turtles and exotic fish. Snorkeling was equally amazing, with abundant marine life just waiting to be discovered. For the more adventurous, wakeboarding in the calm, turquoise lagoons was so much fun – and the crew made sure everyone was safe and had a blast. I got up on my first try after Hazel’s great lesson.



The whole trip was a dream come true. If you’re looking for an unforgettable vacation in paradise with a crew that feels like family, I can’t recommend this experience enough. It’s 5 stars all the way!

I just spent an amazing week aboard Scuba Doo 50 in the BVI! We did a lot of fabulous diving, snorkeling, excursions, wakeboarding and other water activities but what really made the experience special was the hospitality and the food by the crew. Somehow, in between preparing restaurant quality meals, snacks and excellent drinks with love and care, leading water excursions, cleaning up after us and keeping the boat and all the water toys well maintained, the crew, Chef Yah Yah and Captain Hazel, also managed to make us feel like family. The environment they created, their ability to always make sure we were comfortable and having the best time and the knowledge they have of the BVI, marine life and the boat absolutely enhanced the whole experience!



I highly recommend a trip on Scuba Doo 50!!

Talk about living the dream! A few weeks ago, I had the absolute pleasure of spending a week aboard Scuba Doo 50. Since I had never chartered a boat before, I had no idea what to expect. But let me tell you – this experience exceeded every expectation! The crew, Yah Yah and Hazel, made the week beyond special. They were warm, welcoming, accommodating, and incredibly service-oriented. Yah Yah’s cooking? Absolute perfection! Every meal was delicious and tailored to our tastes. Hazel’s captain skills? Smooth sailing! He handled everything with confidence and ease, making us feel completely at home. The yacht itself? Stunning, spotless, and packed with every luxury imaginable. You won’t find a better crew or a more incredible experience. All I can say is, don’t just dream about it, go do it!

We have been to the BVI twice prior and chartered a similar boat. Our experience on Scuba Doo was first class and exceeded our expectations. The crew, Ya Ya and Hazel were phenomenal. They went out of their way every day to accommodate our requests and make an amazing experience for our kids. From tubing, diving, E-foiling, snorkeling and beach excursions every day was unique and memorable. Scuba Doo is very spacious and well laid out. We spent most of our down time relaxing up front or up top. The boat has everything you need and high end appointments. The Wifi worked excellent the entire trip and was easy to check work emails if needed. The food and attention to detail was fabulous. Hands down the best cuisine we have experienced on a BVI charter. Our kids who can be picky loved every meal and wished their mother could cook like Ya Ya. We were sad to leave but will always remember this trip and look forward to returning on a boat crewed by Hazel and Ya Ya.

A very special experience for a multitude of different reasons. The freedom to explore all of the BVIs, making it feel like an inclusive experience complete with your own Michelin star worthy chef YahYah. This trip would have been wildly different without them leading the way.



Truly- a once in a lifetime experience that is totally worth it.



Very, very sad for this trip to come to a close.

I just spent a week with Yah Yah and Hazel aboard Scuba Doo



I have to say they make work look like fun and made our charter feel like we are their friends .



Each meal was delicious and presented like being in a fancy fancy restaurant.



I have more pictures of my meals than I should but needed to have them.



I recommend highly trying to get this experience you won’t regret it.
