Sunseeker 75 Sport Yacht • Sunseeker 75 - Opal Adriatic - 2016

Toni comes to the helm from an engineering background, and it shows in his methodical, composed presence on deck. With over 36,000 nautical miles logged and 135 charter operations under his belt, he brings the kind of quiet confidence that only comes from experience that spans open-ocean passages and intricate coastal navigation along the Adriatic. His deep technical knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems means that whatever arises on board, Toni has the expertise to handle it calmly and competently. A non-smoker and non-drinker throughout his career, he is exactly the captain charter guests and owners have come to rely on. Off duty, he is happiest by the sea with a fishing line in hand,ideally after a long ride on his motorcycle.

Barbara's relationship with food is rooted in where she grew up. Coming from an island background (Brač & Šolta), where the table has always been central to life, she found her calling in the kitchen and honed her skills at a fine-dining restaurant on Šolta for two years before taking that passion out to sea. Over eight years of Mediterranean charter work, she has refined a cooking style built around honest,locally sourced ingredients, the kind of food that tastes unmistakably of the place you are sailing through. Her menus shift with the season and the port, shaped by whatever the local markets offer. What guests may not expect is that Barbara is a highly capable sailor in her own right, all while pursuing a degree in statistics and scientific research. That brings a precision of mind that quietly informs how she plans, provisions, and executes every meal with consistency and care. In the galley and throughout the interior, she brings the warmth and professionalism deepened by many seasons at sea.

Eliza is as comfortable handling lines on deck as she is turning down cabins and looking after guests in the interior. Her years working on vessels ranging from catamarans to motor yachts have given her an intuitive sense of how a charter should feel: attentive without being intrusive, always one step ahead. When needed, she is no stranger to the galley either, having spent years working in restaurant kitchens and developed a love of cooking along the way (think freshly baked focaccia, slow-braised Croatian classics, and homemade desserts). Her background in cognitive and clinical neuroscience, a master's degree completed cum laude at the University of Maastricht, brings an unexpected but useful quality to her work: a deep understanding of people and what they need to feel at ease. Organised, capable, and quietly versatile, Eliza is the kind of crew member whose contribution you notice most when everything simply runs without a hitch.
