Pentesilea Guest Comments
A family group of 7 that we booked aboard Pentesilea in June of 2011 had the following comments:
"We had a wonderful time. I can't tell you enough how great it was. Travis and Rose are awesome. The time Travis spent with us scuba diving and taking us to all the great spots was wonderful. He spent time teaching Mom how to scuba dive so that we got her to 30 feet every time. She has never done that before. The food that Rose fixed was 5 star and more…I hope we don't wait 16 years to do it again...I would tell everyone about Travis and Rose because they really made the trip."
More About Travis & Rose
Originally from Colorado, Travis moved to Maryland as a teenager. There, working among the boatyards and marinas of the Chesapeake Bay, he developed his love of boats and the water. After five years on the Chesapeake, he went back to the mountains, where he graduated from Colorado State University with a Bachelors degree in Political Science as well as an Associate's degree in Outdoor Recreational Leadership. After college, he traveled the world working as a Dive Master, spending time in Chile, Fiji, New Zealand, Australia and Southeast Asia before landing in the Virgin Islands. Working as the lead safety diver/first mate on the "Bob" boat (seen on the Discovery Channel), Travis worked his way up to Captain. He has spent the last few years working in the charter business in the U.S. and British Virgin Islands. He is a PADI Open Water Dive Instructor with 15 years diving experience plus holds his U.S. Coast Guard 100 Ton Master Captain's License and is fully STCW rated.
Chef and First Mate Rosemary is originally from North Carolina. Her love of the water comes from long summers spent on the Outer Banks. Rosemary graduated from the College of Charleston in South Carolina with a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a minor in Studio Arts. Following college, Rosemary spent time in South Africa where she volunteered as a social worker. She is a PADI certified Rescue Diver and has dive experience all over the world, including Egypt, Australia, New Zealand, Mozambique, Thailand and the South Pacific. Her culinary training started at a young age in her chef mother's kitchen…her mother taught her well. Rosemary's love of preparing fine food in a friendly environment is obvious. Her artistic background is reflected in her beautiful presentations. It is also rumored that she makes the best Pina Coladas in the Virgin Islands.
