Crew
Sailing alongside each other in Tahiti, Croatia, Greece, and most recently BVI – Jamison and Orlagh realized they made a pretty Epic team. They both love to travel and bring their experiences from around the globe to their guests. Jamison believes the best way to experience a place is through the food. She has been lucky enough to travel to over 30 countries and has been able to take in and learn from restaurants and other yacht chefs around the world. Orlagh believes the best way to create a good environment onboard is by finding beautiful bays to explore around the islands and a little bit of spontaneity always makes for the best memories as no two charters will ever be the same. Of course, some good storytelling always brings ambiance to a great level for everyone, between the two girls there will be plenty of stories to share and walk away with.
The pair love to entertain & whether they are at home with friends or on board with guests they make it their mission to make your time unforgettable. Both have a passion for the ocean and sea life and love exploring every inch of each bay and island they visit to find the best spots for their guests. As avid divers and snorkelers, they know exactly where to go to spot your next turtle or eagle ray or catch a tuna!
Together the pair make great company for any occasion, and their go-with-the-flow attitude allows them to tailor each charter to be as fast-paced.CAPTAIN ORLAGH
Born and bred in Ireland, Orlagh has always had an unwavering passion for the outdoors, and travel. Being able to horse ride since a very young age Orlagh was never seen without muddy boots and a horse somewhere nearby. At every opportunity, Orlagh would leave Ireland to compete with her horses abroad, this led her to see new cultures and sparked an interest to want to travel further. Starting her first job as a long-haul air hostess for ‘Emirates Airlines for over five years in her early 20s, predominantly working in premium cabins for one of the world’s most prestigious airlines, Orlagh experienced a lot of the world ́s countries and vast cultures.
Orlagh greatly missed the ocean and nature, so she took some time away from flying to return to it. She swapped her wings for sails and spent a summer working for a charter company, offering sailing trips around Greece. Naturally, she fell in love with sailing and knew this was what she wanted to pursue as a life and career. Ever since then, Orlagh has been working as a professional captain in the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
CHEF JAMISON
Jamison brings a classic Canadian spirit to every charter, complete with a sprinkle of “eh” and an abundance of “sorry.” Her culinary journey began while working in remote reforestation camps in Northern Canada, where she took on the role of head chef early on. Since then, she’s found her way to the water, working aboard a superyacht in Europe and spending several charter seasons on catamarans across the Mediterranean and Virgin Islands.
Guests on board can expect a dining experience that’s both refined and relaxed, inspired by the warmth of her Canadian roots and passion for bringing people together. Jamison specializes in crafting menus that highlight fresh, local ingredients, tailored to your tastes and dietary needs. Her approach to cooking blends creativity with comfort, so whether it’s a vibrant Mediterranean feast, a cozy Canadian-inspired dish, or a light, healthy lunch on deck, each meal is designed to make you feel at home on the water.
Coming from a family of seven, Jamison knows the power of food in creating connection and joy. She aims to make each meal a place for everyone to relax, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company – maybe with a cocktail or two.
Outside the galley, Jamison’s passions include running, snowboarding, and cheering on the Toronto Maple Leafs—at least when they’re winning. Her adventurous spirit and Canadian warmth make her an exceptional addition to your charter experience.

Thank yall so much for one of the best weeks of my life! I will forever be so grateful for this experience and all the special memories I have made. I will miss yall both so much! Love yall! - Caroline (age 15)Charter Guests, March 2024May 4, 2024Oh My!OH MY! It will take a bit to recover from our visit aboard Barefeet Retreat! The echos of laughter & the aroma of delicious food are sure to linger leaving a trail of joy in its wake. Your hospitality skills are off the charts. Who else but this dynamic duo could handle our group with such finesse.
Charter GuestsApr 4, 2024Perfect TripCreating lifelong memories is a special treasure that so many of us take for granted until it is too late. However, the week we spent on Barefeet Retreat with Captain and Chef will always hold a special place in our hearts and our entire group is excited to be back on the boat with them again in the future. When a trip ends with genuine hugs and tears, that sums up that not only did everyone very much enjoy themselves, but we all made a special lifelong bond that cannot be forgotten. The cuisine and special beverages would rival any fine restaurant, however the hospitality from them make the trip even more special. Let me tell you, these two worked hard the entire trip to make everything perfect for us, but they always were enjoying themselves, had smiles on their faces and had this contagious positive view on life that continues to resonate with us. These two special people are making the world a better place purely from being in it and spreading their infectious positivity to everyone who is around them. The boat’s layout was perfect, the beds were comfortable, everything was immaculate and clean and with scenic background accompanied with our new found family made for a perfect trip that we will never forget and hope to duplicate soon.
February 2023 Charter GuestsFeb 9, 2023Great Trip!This vacation exceeded all of our expectations. The crew were absolutely over the top exceptional. Every part of the trip was great. The food and the presentation was incredible. Very personable crew that soooo... great--they made the trip. Thank you very much for a great trip.
February 2022 Charter Guests-FamilyFeb 27, 2022Roomy Enough For 10The crew were fabulous. They exuded warmth and friendliness and made all of us feel most welcome onboard. We fell in love with them! We felt completely at ease with both crew members. It was readily apparent they knew what they were doing. Considering there were 10 guests and just two crew members, the service was outstanding. They worked tirelessly to insure we never lacked for anything. They were unfailingly pleasant, polite, friendly and helpful. The chef served so many delicious and varied meals (and oh, so much food) that our eyes popped – shortly before our stomachs! Everything was delicious. Barefeet Retreat had a large mat it put out behind the boat which the kids loved. The captain took them tubing on two occasions and they snorkeled throughout the trip. The noodles were most welcomed by the adults. Shaun and Hayden also used the paddleboard on a couple of occasions. Mary even rode the tube once. Our satisfaction was High, high, high. The catamaran was roomy enough for 10 and I can vouch for the ample size of our shower. Everything on board was quite comfortable.
January 2022 Charter GuestsFeb 27, 2022Bucket List TripThank you so much for making our first charter boat trip and first trip to the Virgin Islands so awesome! We enjoyed relaxing in the sun, swimming in the beautiful blue waters, the great food and cocktails! We appreciate your gracious hospitality and knowledge of the islands. This was a bucket list item for us, and it was wonderful! The magic tricks and playing “cards against humanity” with you was a bonus!
December 2021 Charter GuestsDec 12, 20216 Stars If We CouldIf I could give this outfit 6 stars, I would. Highlight of our adventure. The crew was so friendly and knowledgeable. Created lasting memories for my children. Thank you so much. I cannot speak highly enough of their ability to maneuver the boat and knowledge and pure enthusiasm for the marine world. Very friendly, welcoming and did all they could to make the experience enjoyable.
May 2021 Charter GuestsAug 15, 2021Wonderful Way To EscapeWhat a wonderful way to escape and relax during a crazy year! This was an amazing boat but the crew made it a true experience.

April 2021 Charter GuestsApr 21, 2021Ready To Book Again!Our stay was beyond comfortable because the crew exceeded all our expectations and truly brought our preferences to life! With children on board, we were amazed at the endless activities and constant attention that they provided to help us feel at home. The captain amazed us with her skill and knowledge, but also was warm and patient with our gang. And, the chef is a ray of sunshine! She prepared five star meals for every seating and amazed us with daily cocktails of the day and delicious desserts! The crew duo serving Barefeet Retreat are so warm and caring that you’ll leave with 2 new family members! And, the boat was kept immaculate and stocked with water toys. We are ready to book again!
