Yacht Crew
MEET YOUR CREWCAPTAIN: Gino Barale
CHEF/FIRST MATE: Nikita Du Preez
Gino grew up in the bush, travelling across Southern Africa with his parents. Any chance they got they were out camping in remote locations, which is where his great sense of adventure came about. Gino was introduced to sailing through his father, which is where he began to compete in multiple races, working his way up from crew to skippering his own boat.
After 3 years of racing keelboats, Gino found himself in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean enroute to Rio De Janeiro competing in the Cape 2 Rio Ocean race. This ended up being a 3-month journey, sailing from island to island in Brazil once they got there before starting the passage back home to Cape Town, South Africa.
Nikita found her love for cooking at a young age in the kitchen with her dad where he taught her all the tips and tricks to cooking a delicious meal. With time, this slowly ended up becoming weekly competitions in the house in who created the better dish.
Nikita decided from the get-go she would not be spending her life in an office but rather exploring the world. After discovering the beauty of sailing and life on the water, Nikita quickly booked her course to become a stewardess and culinary courses to increase her culinary skills, which led her to working as a sole chef/stew in Cape Town, South Africa on a superyacht. This is where both her passion for the sea and cooking aligned and she knew her career choice was right.
Gino and Nikita, being friends since high school and having created endless adventures, memories, and stories together, decided to join forces and run sailing charters out of Cape Town. Realizing how well they work together they made their way to the Virgin Islands for another adventure together.

What people are saying
Words cannot describe what a truly amazing vacation aboard Aquanimity with Gino and Nikita we had!
It was by far the best vacation ever! they welcomed us and made us feel so at home and like we were family!
All of the cool and stunning places they took us as well as the recommendations. They both made the trip unforgettable from Uno and Clue games, conversation, jumping off the boat and dinghy rides and best snorkeling ever!
Nikita is a top chef!! All the food was delicious!
Our daughter loved spending time with them as well.
We cannot thank them enough!!

My family - 3 adult sons, my lovely bride, and her Mom - sailed on the 48 ft Catamaran Aquanimity for a week over the Christmas 2024 holiday. In short, what a blast!
I want to start this off by saying that our crew, Gino and Nikita, are truly amazing people. We had plenty of great laughs, they know so much about the BVI, and we all had so much fun throughout the course of the week together. They are so great!
The two of them work seamlessly together and work to fit your preferences.
It’s as smooth an operation as you could find in any industry.
The three meals a day on the boat were truly spectacular - insane plating and cooked perfectly, cooked to your dietary preferences. Highlights included a mahi mahi over couscous, salmon and mashed potatoes, great steak, and pork egg rolls and crab cakes. It’s remarkable how Nikita can cook 5 star meals in a boat kitchen.
They work with you to sort your itinerary for the next day according to your preferences, too, including which islands you would like to go to, what activities you prefer, and when/how long you would like to sail throughout the course of the day.
We followed their itinerary for the most part, and it worked out perfectly. We had ideal conditions at both The Baths and Bubbly Pool, had a blast jumping off the top of Willy T’s and doing shotskis, and had an excellent Christmas dinner at Hendo’s Hideout after cocktails at the Soggy Dollar on Jost van Dyke.
Gino and Nikita know the right locals to show us around the islands, whether it was The Rum Runner or Sweet Ice Willy, too. They know the BVIs like the back of their hand.
The boat itself fitted our family of six comfortably and went without a hitch. Plenty of room in the cabins, cockpit, and around the boat to spend your week. Additionally, the boat comes with snorkeling gear and scooters, a megachill that you won’t get sick of, two paddleboards, and some fun floaties.
Gino, Nikita, and the Aquanimity gave my family a 15/10 Christmas. I cannot speak too highly of the experience. We had so many laughs, great card games, and fun times with the two of them on the boat.
Do yourself a favor and choose them if you’re looking for a similar experience!

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts for such an incredible week on the water. You made sure everything was perfect for us and we loved it all!
We know there are may complexities to managing the boat and meals and you are true professionals! it was so fun to see the NYE drone show at Nekker Island and you set us up perfectly to see it - well done!
We will recommend you to all our friends - you are very talented at what you do, but you are also kind and wonderful people and we really enjoyed spending time with you and getting to know you. You are always welcome to visit us in the Bay Area in California- otherwise we'll come and visit you again on the water!
Love and blessing to you!
Becky and Brian B and the Family
