Jason was first introduced to sailing at the age of ten when his family decided to sell their home and follow their dream of living upon the water and cruising. It didn't take long for Jason to fall in love with the water and after years of cruising he decided to leave school to start working within the marine industry. He gained his first commercial Captains licence on his eighteenth birthday and throughout his career he has been fortunate enough to work on some of the worlds largest and most spectacular sailing yachts. During his career he's managed to log more than half a million miles upon the worlds oceans and has sailed from the Baltic and Mediterranean Seas to the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans. He is incredibly passionate about the ocean and sailing.

Claudia was born and raised in Italy in the northern region of Trentino. Even though Trento is far from the ocean Claudia always dreamt of a life upon the water. She dreamt of sailing the seas of some tropical warm paradise like the Caribbean and in 2011 her dream became reality when she left her home to pursue a life upon the ocean. In 2011 she got her first job in the Caribbean where she did deliveries for a season. Claudia returned the following year and got a full-time position working as Chef/Deckhand onboard a Lagoon 420 until 2014 when she met Jason. She loves the simple life and the peace that living upon the ocean brings. Presently Claudia is studying Naturopathy with Universita' Popolare Torino and hopes to become a qualified consultant in the near future.

In September 2010 Jason purchased the first Trimaran Spirit in Stonnington, Connecticut USA, The following two months after purchasing Spirit were spent refitting her and replacing her old plywood decks with carbon. Two months later in December 2010 he sailed her south with three other crew from Newport RI to St Maarten in the Caribbean. After working the 2011 Caribbean season Jason continued on, sailing Spirit double handed from St Maarten to Tahiti where she was hauled ashore. In April 2012 Spirit was sailed to Australia and was based there the following three years. In 2014/15 Jason and Claudia completed a full refit of Spirit, which took over six months to complete. In April 2015 it was completed and they sailed her to Darwin to compete in the Darwin to Ambon yacht race, which Spirit went on to win. They spent the following four years cruising South East Asia on her, selling her while cruising Lombok. In November 2019 she was sailed to Singapore and then shipped back to Boston on the US east coast where she's still based today.
Jason and Claudia spent the next four years trying to find a bigger version of Spirit, which was their main goal after selling her. In August of 2023 they found an advert for a Chris White Hammerhead 54 ft Trimaran that was in Costa Rica. They flew there within a few days and as they say "the rest is history"
