Crew Information
Captain: David Cuevas
David and Emily met and married on the beautiful island of Kauai. There, they were flourishing, David working as a finish carpenter on luxury estates and Emily cooking as a private chef. Every afternoon when they would get off work and see the ti leaves swaying, they’d race down to Hanalei Bay to take their Nacra 20 out for a zip thru the water. Soon after saying, “I do”, they bought a 44’ Kelly Peterson, a classic ocean going vessel. They quickly closed down shop, moved off of Hawaii, and began prepping the boat to head south to Mexico. They took off from San Diego in December 2018 and began their adventure of a lifetime. Sailing down the primitive coasts of Baja, where all you see is brown and blue to Zihuatanejo Mexico, where they passed the March 2019 shut down on a secluded island with 5 other boats. They’ve surfed the coasts, fished big game, and even seen sea monsters! Their biggest challenge was crossing by themselves to Hawaii, the longest ocean passage in the world. It was 21 days of riding a roller coaster and they were hooked! They returned by passing under the Golden Gate Bridge on a clear, cloudless morning with no other boats around. Now, they are based full time in Mexico, cruising in the winter months and developing their property in the summer. Expect to see some flavor and spice on your plate!
David grew up in a boat yard in Oceanside, CA. He moved to Hawaii when it was time for a fresh start. Hawaii is known to either accept you or throw you out, and it welcomed him with open arms. He raced on Olson 30s in beer car races and across the treacherous Kauai channel to Oahu. He worked on stunning homes with vistas of the ocean. His sense of adventure and charging attitude will keep your trip moving forward! He is always trolling lines off the back and loves to reel in dinner.
Emily moved to Hawaii from Jackson, WY, where she was running an all organic and vegan bakery. It was like a light bulb going off when she learned of private chefing..as if “AH! This is what I’m supposed to do!” After a tasting trial at the head concierge’s house, her career took off. Her inspiration comes from sourcing the most beautiful ingredients she can find. She loves going to farmers markets and meeting other people passionate about creating high vibrancy foods.
We look forward to sharing our stories and learning about yours during our charter together. Feel free to kick back and relax or get involved and learn more about sailing and fishing from us. No matter your style, we will teach you our motto…”We out here living our best life!”

Reviews
We have been looking forward to this trip for so long, and you exceeded our expectations. You took us to the most beautiful places. We appreciate the thoroughness in the way that we felt cared for. Your calmness in situations that could have been stressful was appreciated too.
Emily, the meals, drinks, snacks, desserts were perfection. Thank you for making everything so seamless. You make a great team! You are definitely doing what you were called to do. Safe travels.
Thank you again for everything!
♥ David & Laura
What an amazing couple you both are! Steve, being a captain, and me, coming from the hospitality business, we were just thrilled with everything. Traveling with two of our closest friends and 4 of their dear friends was just perfect. Never meeting you both and feeling instantly at ease. David was just a treat to travel with. As I know, boating can be so stressful. He was always calm and naturally talented.
Emily, the food… you were so creative with all courses! Simple, delicious, creative, and the highest quality. I ADORE the French Market and Steve & I adore you both! Thank you, a million times over!
♥ Karen & Steve
Thank you for an absolutely amazing trip on Plus 10. It was truly wonderful to be on her maiden voyage. You two are an incredible team. The yacht is gorgeous and you manage her to perfection. The itinerary was perfect, and the meals continued to impress us day after day. You both attended to our every wish—every day. From the water toys, the snorkel gear, and the Zodiac runs to the incredible cocktails and meals, the week was truly flawless!
Until next time…
♥ Walter & Janet
Wow! We love our boat—but, most importantly, love the two of you taking care of her. We waited over three years to get the 59 Samana, and you have perfected everything on it. From the plates to the towels and pillows, we really appreciate all of the work you did to make Plus 10 a welcoming home.
Beyond your creating such a beautiful, peaceful space on Plus 10, the two of you are wonderful in every way. David handles the boat with ease and confidence. Emily tirelessly keeps incredible treats and meals flowing. The support you show each other truly creates a smooth, happy, and joyful environment! We are more than blessed to have the two of you caring for Plus 10 and her guests. We look forward to a long and wonderful relationship with you over the years.
Thanks for a perfect inaugural trip on PLUS 10!!
See you in May!
With love,
Mary and Mark
Thank you so much for such an amazing trip! Emily, thank you for taking Mason snorkeling & catering to both him & Gavin this week. David, thank you for taking care of all the “boys” on this trip. You were always so calm & accommodating. Watching all of you wrestle the sail was actually something I will never forget. #makingmemories!
You both are so in tune with your guests’ needs. When I had a not-so-great day, the facial & pampering & the dinghy “Rips” made my day ♥. Thank you for making this trip for my family & friends—one we will never, ever forget!! We will for sure see you both soon!
♥ Carrie, Jer, Gavin + Mason
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for an amazing experience! This was a trip of a lifetime for Pascal and I. You two spoiled us rotten. You both have the best energy and are so fun! Emily—your cooking is fantastic. David made sure we all were set up to explore the ocean. You both are the best team. I couldn’t have imagined being on plus 10 with anyone else. So many wonderful memories were made on this trip. We appreciate all that you did for us. Best vacation ever!
Love,
Pascal + Alisha
Thank you for an amazing week, for taking good care of us, and for showing us all the beauty of the British Virgin Islands. This was our first sailboat experience and has been a special week for our family. We are not boat people, and didn't grow up boating, but after this experience, we all can understand the appeal and the allure of the open sea. Safe travels to you both, and best of luck in all your future adventures. You are both such wonderful people and we are so thankful we got to meet you.
All our Love,
Shawn, Andrea, Connor, and Paige
Wow! A week flies by so fast and we are sad to see it end. But what a week it was!! I knew from our initial call that this week was going to be very special but both of you "blew it out of the water"!
Thank you so much for some very memorable meals & cocktails Emily. Your passion for healthy cooking shines through and the food was so good! David, thank you for showing our group all the beauty that is the BVI. We were so fortunate to see so much in such a short time.
We especially want to thank you for planning an itinerary that included some dives, wildlife (such as hiking), snorkeling, and beach trips. We had an amazing time and I can say this was the best trip I've been on (You can tell Gailin Hank I said that!).
Stay in touch and best of luck with your future plans.
Daren & Anita, Edmonton, AB
Thank you for your hospitality, professionalism & kindness. You two run the boat flawlessly & effortlessly. Your teamwork as a couple is fun to watch. Our family had an enjoyable time decompressing, relaxing, and "chillin" on Lady Catron. The week flew by! David - your boatmanship is top-notch - you proved your merits as a sailor & captain. We felt safe and confident every nautical step of the way. Emily - your food was simply delicious. I say simple because you made it look effortless. When did you do all that?? Fresh, flavorful and thoughtfully adapted to our kids' preferences! While our Christmas celebration was short, we were happy to share it with you two. We wish you both a journey in life with calm waters, beautiful sunsets and memories deep as the ocean.
Much aloha
This was high key the best vacay EVER!!! Fish galore spotted rays and a misplaced octopus - what else can we say?? Oh yeah, the food - AMAZING... Fresh caught Spanish Mackerel ceviche?? Need I say more?? Everything was top notch, drinks and meals were so tasty. Kids loved the fruit selection and adults the drink selection (kid too)! Thank you most for taking care of us - watching us while we snorkeled, sailing us safely & ensuring everyone got the food/drinks they want. Happy and healthy 2024!!!
XOXO
This trip has exceeded what we could have dreamed of.
