Master Capt. Daniel Benson
Daniel Benson, a native of St. John USVI and our captain, is the son of a sailor and grew up surrounded by boating culture. From an early age he was exposed to his father’s sailing adventures across the seas. As a young man he learned all he could about navigating the Virgin Islands and eventually bought his first sailboat in Cruz Bay, St John. Today Daniel owns several boats including his pride and joy: “Athenian”—a modern-day pirate ship!
