Captain Nate
Nate is a life-long sailor with a passion for sharing his love of the sea. After landing his first job as a deckhand aboard the America's Cup winning twelve meter raceboat "Intrepid", he embarked on a journey around the world on a vast array of fine sailing yachts. He worked exclusively in the superyacht industry for six years as a deckhand, engineer then captain aboard vessels ranging from seventy to one hundred and twenty feet long, plying the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans including two transatlantic passages and two trips through the Panama Canal. After a soul searching journey across the Indian Subcontinent by motorcycle and South East Asia he landed in New York City running day charter boats, a ferry, and teaching sailing courses. Seventeen years after signing his first contract to join a boats crew, Nate now runs his own sailing charter and yacht management business in The Hamptons and has taken the helm of the much loved Bali 5.4 "Ithaka". He is beyond excited to share stories and new adventures with his incoming charter guests this winter.
Mary Campbell (MC) was born and raised the US, but considers herself a citizen of the world.
Growing up in Pennsylvania, she didn’t spend much time on the water, but she did spend quite a bit of time in the kitchen. Her father is an excellent cook and during her childhood, he spent many weekends crafting delicious meals for the family, almost always involving her and her 6 siblings in the process. From his famous key lime pie to Jamaican jerk chicken and chicken piccata, many of her dishes are inspired by the cooking she did alongside her father growing up. Mary Campbell loves to create healthy, nourishing and delicious meals that will take your taste buds global.
During college, she moved to Rome for the summer as an au pair, which truly solidified her love of travel. After graduating from Louisiana State University with an art and design degree, she traded her pottery wheel for a life of travel. In 2021 she stepped into the role of yacht chef in Croatia and was hooked. Since then, she has gotten the opportunity to sail all over the world- from French Polynesia to the British Virgin Islands, Croatia, Turkey and more. Along with cooking she loves to study Italian, experience new cultures, celebrate her friends and family and watercolor.
She is committed to keeping your belly full and your days happy while sailing the beautiful British Virgin Islands aboard Ithaka!

Clay and Jill, Amazing time on your boat! Loved meeting you and sharing time with you. We will always remember this wonderful week - Jill you are beyond words, one of a kind. Thank you for the accommodations with my "GF" diet - Hope we cross paths again. Loved the food, meals were awesome! - E&M
Thank you for an amazing week! Everything exceeded our expectations...the sailing, the food, drinks, ports, excursions. We hope to see you sometime in the future whether in the islands or New England. Your skill and thoughtfulness and care are second to none. Loved every minute aboard with you! - C&M
Captain Clayton & Chef Jill were fantastic the entire week. We felt extremely safe with our captain running the boat, and both Clayton & Jill spent time with us in the water snorkeling, which was fun and helpful. They know the BVI very well and gave us excellent options throughout our trip and brought us to many great places. They were always available to meet any & all of our needs, yet we were completely able to relax on our own. The guest cabins were quite comfortable. The master suite was great. The bedding was excellent, very clean & comfortable. Ventilation was excellent, the AC was run all night each evening and sleeping conditions were great. Plenty of storage. Chef Jill was fantastic. All our meals were prepared with great care and exquisite tastes! She followed our preferences and checked in with us regularly.
Clay and Jill, Thank you for an awesome adventure! Everything was truly exceptional. The food and presentation was outstanding, totally beyond expectations. The best reward was learning about your life. Thank you for the friendship. - M&M
Family Highlights: - Captain Clayton!! - Turtles... and more turtles - Snorkeling - salt pond & ship wreck - Nap 1... Nap 2... Nap 3... - Sunsets with our family - Nightly card games - Sailing the beautiful seas - Family book club time - "Most relaxed & best rested EVER" - whole family This was a magical and unforgettable week!!
This was our 5th Caribbean charter and we think it was the best one! Thank you for mapping out such a great journey through the islands. We loved the snorkeling, kayaking, and birding. You both made it the perfect holiday! Captain Clayton & Briley were the perfect hosts - you absolutely catered (and anticipated) all our needs. The bays that we moored in were perfect for snorkeling, kayaking, swimming and relaxing (and eating and drinking and singing...) Thank you so much - we felt safe at all times and you showed us all the best parts of these islands. We loved the taco place and enjoyed the "floating band." Briley - food was amazing - and you catered to all our "food whims." That was special. We wish you continued amazing adventures. Only with you would captain (and cook) our next charter!! And Captain - thank you for sharing your music and adventures with us. And Briley - I SO appreciate the extra efforts to make things diary-free for me- so special! We hope to see you again along the way!
We are so thankful to have ended up on a boat with Captain Clayton and Chef Briley this week! You both were AWESOME. Thanks for taking us to the best places, getting the kayak, sharing information, keeping us safe... Thanks for letting us share in your rummi kube game :) Briley, AMAZING food! I hope my family can adjust to my cooking again when we get home. You're so creative and talented. We've loved snorkeling, tectite, hiking, and sailing. We've also enjoyed hearing about your adventures around the world - and we're glad that you were part of our adventures in St. John. Wishing you all the best in the days to come.
We have enjoyed our first family trip on the boat so much. We are so grateful for how well you have taken care of the boat and treated it like your own. We could not have chosen and more thoughtful crew for Ithaka's maiden year. Everything you have done to get her ready to sail and have guests as been amazing. My favorite part of the trip is always the planning. Thank you for taking the time to talk out all our plans and timelines. We had such a smooth trip. We will always remember my husband's 46th birthday as the first year we sailed on Ithaka! Thank you to Briley for all the planning, shopping, prepping and cooking double meals for the kids and adults. Everything was wonderful!
Captain Clayton & Briley - Thank you for a fabulous vacation! This is a trip that our family has talked about for years and now that we have taken the trip, it will be one that we talk about for years to come! From swimming with sea turtles to snorkeling the Tektite siko, it was all wonderful! Thank you for taking us free diving, Clayton, we loved every minute of it. The kids also loved surfing behind the dinghy and all the time spent out on the water. Thank you for all of the wonderful food, Briley! Thank you also for the breakfast accommodations for the sleepy teens! Good luck to both of you as you continue your travels.
Five star Captain. Feel very secure the whole trip. There were 4 adolescents that got along with the crew thanks to Clay and Briley. Planning every day activities was real easy with them. Saw some spectacular sandy beaches, amazing sunsets and great spots for snorkeling and swimming. Briley's peanut butter pie was the highlight of he dining experience. God blessed them forever. Highly recommended, the whole group were all so relaxed and felt at ease.
Clay and Jill - Amazing time on your boat! Love meeting you and sharing time with you! We will always remember this wonderful week - Jill you are beyond words - one of a kind. Thank you for the special accommodations with our gluten-free diet. Hope we cross paths again. Loved the food - meals were awesome!

Thank you for everything you did to make this trip with friends so special!
I wanted to thank you for putting together a great crew for our charter. We had the trip of a lifetime. Jennifer is a real professional. She put together 5 star meals, that our family is still raving about! She has a great personality to entertain people, and treated us like royalty! Jason went above and beyond making sure we were comfortable and also entertained! He made sure to bring us to the best snorkeling spots. His talent as a bar tender also was much appreciated! 😊 Jason and Jennifer worked well together and we would highly recommend them to anyone!! It was a trip of a life time!! Thanks for everything, Mike Dietz
