Chef Sandie and Captain Mike are two people who truly love their work. Between the two of them they have over 30 years of yachting experience.

Sandie's culinary skills are extraordinary. She is a graduate of Leiths Culinary School of London and originally comes from Hampshire, England. Sandie has been entertaining and cooking for guests aboard charter yachts since 1988 from Gibraltar to Newport to Granada. Her zest for fun and adventure, along with her skills in the galley, make her a perfect member of La Buscadora crew.

Captain Mike is very proud of his 23 years of experience as a captain in the Caribbean with a perfect Record for Safety. He also has been Certified Dive Instructor for 24 years: after hundreds of students and thousands of dives his love of the sport and attention to safety has never diminished.

 Mike's love of all water sports is probably best shown through his infinite patience during instruction and participation. Mike wants everyone to enjoy themselves as much as he does!... Mike has been involved with La Buscadora since 1973. Born in Chicago, he spent his early years on the shores of Lake Michigan.
