CHARTER BOAT OF THE YEAR - CRUISING WORLD
Lounging around on the flybridge a few steps removed from the helm station on a breezy afternoon in the Virgin Islands is pretty darned enjoyable. In fact so is strolling about the boat and taking in the expansive views from numerous vantage points. On this boat, the great outdoors literally pour into the saloon and sleeping cabins thanks to the wall of glass and overhead skylight that spans the saloon.It offers one master cabin with queen berth, lounge area, en-suite bath and equipped with TV and two additional spacious queen cabins each with en-suite bath.

MEET THE CREW
Captain: Thomas Foster
Chef/First Mate: Nicola Alberts (Previously on Reach)

Born and raised in Cape Town, Tom has spent the last 5 years working at sea. After graduating from university with a degree in construction management, Tom decided that sailing the high seas seemed like a more exciting way to spend his time. With experience ranging from 40ft day boats sailing the South African coastline to 110ft sailing super-yachts blasting across the Mediterranean and Ionian seas, Tom has gained critical experience to provide his guests the highest level of enjoyment!
When not sailing, you can probably find Tom somewhere around the world driving (& fixing) his 1982 converted camper-van

Nicola grew up in Cape Town, where her love for food was nurtured in the kitchen alongside her father, learning the art of preparation, presentation, and creating unforgettable dining experiences. Surrounded by the ocean and mountains, she has always been drawn to adventure, new challenges, and the joy of bringing people together over great food.
Originally studying Environmental Sciences, Nicola soon realized her true passion lay in the culinary world. This led her to pursue a career in hospitality, which transitioned to working as a chef on yachts in the Mediterranean.
More recently she has been running charters here in the Virgin Islands.

Whether sourcing fresh ingredients in remote locations or ensuring seamless service for guests, Nicola thrives on delivering warm, attentive hospitality with a focus on quality and creativity. Passionate about fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared cuisine, Nicola takes pride in crafting menus tailored to her guests’ preferences, ensuring every meal is a highlight of their journey.

Tom and Nicola can’t wait to welcome you aboard Sea Dog and give you the experience of a vacation of a lifetime!

Nicola, Like a beautiful flower, you have the amazing ability to put the biggest smiles on our faces. Each meal you prepared was fascinating, caused us to have wonderful conversations, sharing which meal was the best. You have a tremendous future in front of you. Enjoy the ride!

A Surprise Meal After Meal

Tom & Nicola,

Thank you so much for the best first charter experience we could ask for. You both went above and beyond with the views, sailing, water sports, and most importantly, the food. We had a couple of interesting dietary requirements and Nicola absolutely nailed every single meal. Pretty sure we all somehow managed to gain weight even with the endless hours of swimming/snorkeling.

The other thing that was truly special was to be able to share Alyssa and Garett’s bow vows. This was something we dreamed of and we can not thank you enough for making the day so special. It was a once in a lifetime trip for all of us. We loved it so much that we are trying to figure out how to do this again every year.

You guys were the absolute best and we could not recommend the Sea Dog more.

Thank you,
The Flora & Drehs
