Captain Jack Boye USCG 100 ton Master, STCW:
FEATURED CAPTAIN OF THE MONTH @ www.charterwave.com
Your Captain, Jack Boye has a Master's USCG 100 ton license. His sailing experience is very extensive. He is the
only American to have completed three major world solo races. The BOC Around Alone, The French Route du Rhum
and the OSTAR Challenge. Add four Bermuda one-two's, yearly voyages to and from Maine and the Caribbean,
Jamestown R.I. to Norway, Cape Town South Africa to Rio, Jack has at least 100,000nm under his keel and counting.
Jack attended Penn State on a football scholarship and played football for Coach Joe Paterno. He graduated with a BA
in American History. After serving his country in Viet Nam, a highly decorated Army Airborne Captain, Jack then went
to Wall Street for the next 25 years. While there, he started one of the first discount brokerage firms and largest
wholesale execution firms.
With his love of the sea, Jack started many children's charities beginning in NYC to promote mentoring inner city
youth through the sport of sailing. He dedicated his races to the charities and named his boats Project City Kids and
Ocean Kids. His latest charitable endeavor was as chairman of the board of Pier's Park Sailing in East Boston.
Before turning to life aboard Pride, Jack started mini class US to promote 6.5 racing in the United States. Built and
purchased in France, his mini 6.5 was one of the first in the U.S. and with great effort he has rebuilt and redesigned
her for the last 12 years.
Jack and his wife Susan enjoy sailing Pride in the islands of the Caribbean. He is particularly fond of Eco-Chartering
where Pride can take guests to unspoiled locations. Beautiful wildlife and pristine beaches are still available to enjoy
while some are only accessible by catamaran.
Susan Boye R.N., Chef, STCW:
Susan grew up in Barrington R.I. and was an active member in the Barrington Yacht Club. She spent all of her
childhood summers sailing Narragansett Bay and Newport and her winters skiing in the White Mountains.
Susan attended Prep school and then early admission to the Univ. of New Hampshire. She had and still has a love of
science and art so she majored in Botany and minored in Fine Art. In her early years she managed greenhouse
production in Washington State. Susan then purchased and developed wild blueberry fields in rural Maine.
She later earned a B.S. degree in Nursing and worked in Orthopedics and Neurology in major Boston Hospitals.
Susan owned and operated a successful business as a RN muscular therapist working with MD referred patients with
chronic pain conditions.
As an active outdoors person, Susan has hiked and skied throughout Switzerland,Germany, Scotland, the Sierra
Mountains, White Mountains and Olympics in Washington. She still looks forward to new challenges in sailing and
mountaineering.
Susan has lived and worked in the Caribbean and sailed the Leewards, Windwards, BVI's and USVI's aboard both
mono-hull and catamaran yachts. Her culinary forte is primarily French in influence, as she does most of her culinary
training in Quebec. A student of Bon Appetit, she also enjoys traditional New England fare as well as casual and
elegant creations inspired by the great tastes of the Caribbean.
