ODYSSEA Yacht Description
Odyssea, previously named Slivochka, is a beautiful 59' Fontaine Pajot chartering the BVI in the Caribbean.
Guests can relax in her spacious salon and enjoy watching all the delicious meals being prepared in the up galley. Dining on the aft deck offers alfresco dinging and relaxing on the sun-bed watching the sun set. Since we offer a wet bar, a cold beverage is never too far away; whether you are floating on the inflatable island, going for a sundowner cruise in our 15' tender or merely lying on the nets under the stars. A large sky lounge on salon roof where guests can enjoy sun bathing is a favourite spot to enjoy happy hour treats and some of the Captain's delicious cocktails all the while enjoying a 360° view and a soft sea breeze.
Come and join us and enjoy all the jewels of the British Virgin Islands onboard Odyssea.
Presented by DMA Yachting, the breathtaking charter yacht ODYSSEA is a 59 ft sailing catamaran. The most appealing features of ODYSSEA are her elegant profile and inviting socializing areas. ODYSSEA spends the season in Sardinia. She was completed by the ship builder Fontaine Pajot in 2012. A comprehensive refit was fulfilled in Annually. The ingenious yacht layout features 4 cozy cabins and comfortably accommodates a group of 8 guests.
ODYSSEA is presented primarily as a sailing catamaran. The yacht layout radiates from the main saloon, which connects to the aft deck. The aft deck is generous, with a prominent dining and seating area and that's where most of the meals are served. The immersive cabins are located below the main saloon, connected by stairs (inquire about handicapped access). The cabins are connected by stairs to the main saloon - roomy, comfortable and pleasant. Multiple portholes supply a sunny feeling, with the option for darkness and privacy.
The sailboat features 2 X Volvo D3 110; 1 X 8 & 1 X 10 man life rafts - EPIRB; Iridium Satellite; Garmin GPS engines and a generator.

Crew Information
Chef/1st Mate
Captain
Captain: Dylan Fairfield
Captain Dylan and Chef Gi have an enthusiasm and passion for life on the water. With their easy going charm and love of hospitality, your trip aboard its sure to be that of a lifetime!
Dylan guides you to perfect bays and secret spots, pairing your expectations and his knowledge to make exploring the Islands all the more enjoyable. Nothing is too much for any of his guests, be that sun tanning on the flybridge with a cocktail in hand, or getting you involved in sailing Slivochka. Dylan grew up sailing the Indian and Atlantic Oceans with his family, totaling 20 000 NM over six years, having left his home of South Africa at age 6. Fully qualified and commercially endorsed as a MCA/RYA Yacht Master Offshore 200GT, he has a full STCW and is a certified PADI Dive Master.
Gi grew up in Mozambique, a country on the east coast of Africa, famous for its tropical beaches, fresh seafood and Portuguese influences. At 16 years old she began leading guests on private safari tours where she specialized in identifying birds and expanded on her knowledge and love of animals. Later on she would discover her interest in local and international cooking, learning from seasoned chefs operating within the Safari. In 2017 she made the decision to advance her skills by completing the Capital Culinary School Diploma in Professional Cookery, affording her the opportunity to return to Mozambique to delight guests with her refined culinary skills. She now looks forward to welcoming you aboard Odysseas and creating delicious meals for you and your friends and family.
Both Dylan and Gi enjoy families and children, and aim to maximize the fun and adventure in each charter, whilst providing a relaxed atmosphere for you to unwind. They great at creating a vibe and throwing a party, perfect for couples or those looking to visit in island style! They believe that attention to detail and personal touches make all the difference! This is part of what sets them up as a top crew in the Islands.
They both look forward to making this vacation everything you hope for.

Reviews
Sorry for the delayed reply in getting feedback from the B’s who left ODYSSEA on the 3rd… But, I was finally able to chat with them over the phone last night, so I am relaying this…
They had an excellent time with you and Gi on board. They were very impressed with your knowledge and experience. They knew you had their best interest at heart all the time and you are super caring!
Butch loved hanging out with you, which gave Mrs. some time to herself! She loved it! She also mentioned how impressed they were with being in a small space all together, yet you both knew how to give them their space, and when to join in. It was never an issue..
The boat was very nice too. They mentioned the unfortunate weather they had, but you guys made it great. (I think she mentioned board games or dominoes or something) Whatever, they enjoyed spending that time with you.
Regarding Gi, OMG! She went off talking about her cooking and presentations. She also sent me photos in a text. Gi not only did an excellent job with cooking but the presentation was beautiful with every meal. She mentioned that “not only did she do such an excellent job, but it was effortlessly on her end. I never saw her really with a messed up galley in the middle of cooking. She never really saw her in the galley making a mess, it was always very clean and organized as if she really wasn’t cooking.” (I hope I am relaying this right) "We joked about how I, or Amparo, cook a meal and everyone knows with the banging of pots/pans/dishes etc. and the kitchen would be a mess. Gi had NONE of that! She was like a magician in the galley and you never knew she could produce such great meals every day with no stress and cleanliness. Her galley was always perfect even in the middle of cooking!"
She also mentioned they would go to their room and were shocked to see the room always cleaned and perfect. She was shocked because she never saw either one of you going down to their rooms ever. Again, like a magician!
They would love to come back with you and ODYSSEA in the future, for sure…
Thank you for an amazing week! It was the best way to break free of Covid and celebrate a 50th birthday for Rich. We so appreciate you hospitality, delicious food and the wonderful way you took care of all the details big + small for us. We created so many memories and deepened the bonds of friendship over snorkelling, hiking and super moon gazing. We'll be back!
With sincere gratitude,

What an AMAZING week!
Dylan &n G, If you ever get sick of the sea, call me, we'd love to have you join us on the 'other' Cape! Flounder Hacketts, Nicki and John!
Greg and Jen Ruggles
One of the best spring breaks yet! Thank you for the awesome meals and amazing experiences. Had such a great time. Hope you remember we’re better at tubing than the boys false
- Gracen & Avery, Reilly & Kohler
Thank you for giving us a fabulous week. Dylan and Gi – you rock!! Come visit us in New England when it is warm! Absolutely fabulous week in paradise – a little piece of heaven – thank you so much!!
Gi and Dylan
Thanks so much for the extraordinary week on board Slivochka, Gi, your 100 megawatt smile and warm hospitality set the tone for the week: and your meals – all outstanding. Dylan your excellent seamanship and encyclopaedic knowledge of the BVI, its anchorages, snorkelling spots provided us with a fantastic vacation: smooth seas and fair winds for you. Thanks so much.
Dylan and Gi,
As first time sailors, the experience was far beyond any expectations we had – in every aspect of the trip, Fabulous!
Cathy and Mike Corbett, Myron and Cathy Zimmerman, John and Fawn, Nancy and Pete Brown
Thank you for a wonderful week of adventure. If we could Gi home with us to cook for us we would. All our meals were wonderful, breakfast, lunch & dinner! Dylan was a great captain & cool as a cucumber when the dingy stopped running and we had to row back to the boat. He was a great participant in the What Do You Meme game! Dylan was very flexible with our itinerary and had great suggestions. We tried to get them to let us stay on as part of the crew but unfortunately that would have required them to cancel the rest of their charters! We would definitely book another charter on Slivochka with Dylan & Gi.
Greg, Susan, Kyle, Allison, Katie and Chad Hackenbracht, Paul Pettitt, Erin Roy
Thank you for an ALL-AMAZING trip. It exceeded our expectations. We appreciated your professionalism and easy going personalities. The two year wait from our original plan was worth it and we will be back soon. We thoroughly enjoyed the meals and cocktails. There were new stories everyday that we can add to our memories. And we have two new friends. Fair winds & following seas.

Thank you for this amazing trip I hope we get to go again. Thank you Gi for all the delicious food and hair styles. Thank you Dyan & Gi – Vivian Sproul
What a great trip. We enjoyed every minute. The food was wonderful. I think the girls had 6 of the-best meals they’ve ever had. Can’t wait to do this again soon with you guys. Hope we weren’t too much trouble. Keep in touch.
Steve & Judy Vermillion
Thank you so much for such an amazing experience, we could not have asked for a better crew! Gi, your cooking was INCREDIBLE. It’s going to be so hard to go back to eating our subpar meals. We had an absolute blast staying up and playing endless amounts of card games, especially spoons. Willy T’s is a night we loved the most – the memories may be fuzzy, but unfortunately the videos and bruises aren’t. Dylan, thank you for being a great leader when it came to snorkelling and ass tattoos Thank you Gi for introducing us to the Caipirinha, we will spend countless hours trying to recreate the recipe since you can’t share (along with the soy fillet sauce). It’s hard to pick a favorite island they were all our favorite – from dune buggies at Anegada to the caves at Norman. We will never forget this trip and we will absolutely be back soon. We cannot thank you guys enough for going above and beyond.
Steve, Judy, Cat, Walker and Addie Vermillion, Amanda Erskine, Wade Cox and Jordan Esopa
Simply Amazing! Having done this trip 10 years ago with our family as well, we thought we knew what to expect/ The two of you made this trip truly exceed all expectations.
From knowledge of the world, the excellent food, exceptional service, patience, nothing too much to ask for, making sure we slept in the smoothest and most beautiful bays…I could go on and on.
Thank you both for treating our family to a trip of a lifetime with special memories!
We have already recommended to several friends!
Warmest personal regards,
Your favorite Texans!
Ron, Rhona and Rachel Konig, Tracy and Kyle Bateman, Ali Berkman
Thank you so much for the amazing trip. Many memories were made on this most amazing boat, with amazing foor & great friends. So glad we all crossed paths. Looking to seeing your alls continued adventures. You all are the best.
God Bless,
Dennis & Lisa Stephens
Dylan & Gi,
What an amazing week. I must confess that memories of a charter 10 years ago really made me think that experience could never be matched. Wow, was I wrong. Not only did you all match it, you exceeded my expectations. If I could bottle up and market you all I think we could make millions! The smiles, the service the excellent food and your willingness to do whatever was asked made for an amazing trip. Dylan’s wise chores and very judicious guidance on where to go and what to do was always right on target. Both of you have such a friendly personality we fell in love with you both instantly. We plan on shouting your highest praises and recommending you & the Slivochka to anyone that will listen. Gi thanks for taking one for the team with Christopher! That’s one experience we won’t forget and will become part of our “vacation” stories. God Bless you both with rich lives and success in all you do.
With much appreciation and thanks
Matt & Lisa Bowman
I can’t thank you enough for the incredible week I (personally had), as well as our whole group. It’s hard to think back and pick a favorite but if I was forced, simply sailing!! And of course having the atmosphere to reconnect with new and old friends. The both of out did yourselves. Dave & I are in the process of figuring out another time w/another group so we will see you in the future!!!
Sincerely,
Stacy Florence
Thanks to the cocktail board outside. I don’t remember much, but apparently, according to Stacy’s Facebook posts, I’ve had a blast! Just kidding. I remember everything, every delicious meal, especially! You two are amazing people. Made for hospitality, for sure, but overall you are genuinely wonderful spirits. You’ve given me a lifetime of adventure, laughter, and memories in this short little week. (And Dylan, I still can’t believe you caught my hat!)
Thank you!!
Nicki Shorr-Maxson
Dylan & Gi –
Absolutely the BEST EVER !!! We enjoyed the sites, your expertise& the culinary delights each day. Thank you for an excellent 1st experiences on a catamaran as well as BVI.
Steve & Wynne
Thank you for making the first voyage for our kiddos such a success! Jack & I have dreamed of introducing them to such a vacation, you’re patience, attention to all of the details, and special touches made it a perfect trip. Magdalene (9 years old) will forever remember the snorkelling, getting to touch a jelly fish, diving down to touch a rock, seeing a grand sea turtle, & of course her special friend “Rob” the conch Capt. Dylan, your patience & guidance helped make all of these things possible. Jaxie (8 years old) loved sitting on the nets with the wind blowing on her face, snorkelling, tubing & of course the early morning chats with you both. Maverick (4 years) will always remember the swims in the “open seas”, his first tubing experience, searching for shells, and he will likely keep dreaming of Gi’s sweets for years to come! Truly, a wonderful, fabulous journey with you both. The pirate thanksgiving lunch was a terrific treat.
Until next time,
Amanda & Jack Ryan, Magdalene, Jaxie & Maverick

accommodated our group. Dylan and Isabella were incredible. They were
knowledgeable, interesting, professional and just fun to be around. Bella is an
amazing chef and all of her food was delicious. We were all baffled by how she
cooked such gourmet meals in such a small space. Dylan did an excellent job
leading our dives and providing a fun and safe environment for all.
This really is an incredible vacation for anyone. It is so relaxing, rejuvenating and
a genuine break for day to day life.
The meals were so delicious that one of the kids wanted to propose to Bella! The
food was perfect. Bella did an amazing job working around the needs of
someone with a nut allergy and a pescatarian. The meals were interested and
beautifully presented. She was very mindful of our preference sheet.
The yacht was beautiful. It was clean, well-maintained and well appointed. The
provided toiletries were high end and very much appreciated. Everyone loved the
Sun Bum sunscreen and it was soo nice not to bring all that along. The cabins
were comfortable and the AC was great. We loved sitting on the upper deck on
our sails. It would have been a bit nicer if there was a little more shade up there
but it was not a issues. It was nicely situated next to the captain and it provided
a nice opportunity to talk with Dylan and Bella while crossing. There were plenty
of other shaded options on the boat.
We loved the coffee machine, snacks and fruit that were always out and
available. It was also super helpful to have the "lost & found" basket and the
sunglasses basket. Great idea!
The games and books were also a nice touch.
Our diving was a highlight for our family. We did two dives that were very fun.
Dylan and Bella worked seamlessly to get the equipment out, get us oriented
and prepared for the dive. Dylan did a great job reviewing skills (especially for
our kids), the dive plan and signals before were dove. We loved both the Indians
Dive and the octopus wreck dive.
The pace was a perfect balance of relaxing and active. We loved swimming,
snorkeling, diving, reading, paddle boarding, playing games & hanging out. The
cruising gave us the perfect amount of downtime between all the fun.
What was your first impression of the yacht? = Immaculate
Was advertised equipment onboard and in good condition? - Yes
Did the skipper/hostess make you feel welcome and comfortable onboard? - Yes
Did you feel free to choose activities? - Absolutely
Please provide specific comments regarding your skipper and hostess. - They were both wonderful! We planned out where we would go, dive etc. with Dylan. Isabella was an amazing cook! She took us snorkeling and made sure we were all together. This was our 3rd time doing this and our best trip by far.
Were the meals and beverages as you expected? - Yes, even better! The food and wine were amazing. They waited on us and took care of our boys when they were hungry in between meals.
If you made any special requests were they met? - Yes.
Was this your first visit to the BVI? - No, 3rd by boat
Would you recommend this yacht for a charter vacation? - Absolutely
We had a fantastic 5 day excursion with y'all. Your food was amazing and your fellowship and professionalism was second to none! We really appreciate your flexibility so we could meet up with our friends. We look forward to booking our next excursion with you, our friends and your sister boat.
Thank you! Siobhan, Hans, Connor, Liam and Andrew Peterson
Thank you so much for the most amazing trip we have ever been on. Bella your food was delicious. You both really made our trip so special. We can't thank you enough!!!
Lots of love,
The Moon & Sproul
You both are amazing people!
We loved our time with you both & hope to visit you both again soon!
Please enjoy your holiday & time on the water!
Love - Bobby & Allison
We also appreciate your help in arranging to meet up with our friend. It was great for us to see her! You took us to many beautiful places and you didn't murder us and drop our bodies at sea. So thanks for that. Isabella, you are a delight as is your cooking. Best painkillers around. We will spread the word. Thank you for being so sweet and gracious in the face of our chaos and mess. We would love to eat your delicious food daily. Much luck to you in your future! We will miss you! The Spiats Family
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for a most wonderful vacation. Dylan's teaching abilities for waterspouts. Bella's cooking awesome!!! Dylan's, I mean Dr. Dylan for removing spines from Ryan's foot. Bella and all her wonderful drinks. Spending Dylan's 30th at Willie T's (ski shots)!!! Everyday was new adventure. D.J. Dave got the party rolling at the wonky dog! (shake that shit) full moon party Trellis Bay O. Fishing :) Scooters :) See you guys in Jersey. Feastfamily, Wolff family
Thanks again best trip,
So difficult to put into words exactly how FABULOUS the last few days have been! Captain man-Baby...you helped us have the time of our lives while keeping MOST of us from harming ourselves :) And Bella...you filled our bellies with the EXQUISITE cuisine and delicious cocktails. But more importantly, you filled our hearts with warm memories we will take with us and cherish forever. Thank you both so much for going ABOVE and BEYOND to make this best girls' trip we've taken yet! TX Happy Sails
Kirstin, Erin, Kara, Jenny, Julie - The Texas Zeta Girls
The meals were exquisite. She is a fantastic cook and each day’s offerings included fresh produce and salads, deliciously prepared grilled fish or meat and even some imaginatively created themed dinners. A special memory was when they joined us on Anegada for a lobster dinner in an outdoor restaurant under the full moon. They were such accommodating and congenial traveling companions who took such excellent care of us that we were sad to bid them farewell.
The second consideration was the yacht Slivochka. This is a 59-foot sailing catamaran with extremely comfortable lodging for the guests. Each air-conditioned guest cabin included a walk around queen-size bed, and in-suite head and very adequate storage space. The main deck area was spacious with indoor and outdoor dining areas, and there was a comfortable reclining area next to the bridge. On board were kayaks, paddle boards, snorkeling equipment and fishing gear for our use. The yacht was spotless and very well maintained. We had planned the itinerary with Dylan. This included stops at Norman Island, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, Jost Van Dyke and back to St. Thomas. In addition, we had many side excursions for snorkeling and exploring the beautiful British Virgin Islands.
We have charted several boats in the past in the Virgin Islands but they all pale in comparison to sailing on Slivochka. We give them our highest recommendations and hope they will be our crew for any future excursions.
Our little piece of heaven in The BVI and you two made it possible! We're afraid that all other vacations will pale in comparison to this fantastic week.
It was the perfect storm - luxury boat, 5 star cuisine, gorgeous weather, great friends and your wonderful care and consideration. you both made the trip - you rock - you're awesome. we wish you much success and happiness and good fortune in all of your future endeavours.
Much love, and thank you both so very much -

Dear Keri + Dylan,
Thank you for the most amazing vacation ever! You two are such wonderful hosts. You think of everything and make it all seem effortless. Keri, the meals were just incredible. The ribs, sliders, risotto, beautiful salads - they were all delicious. The creme brûlée was particularly memorable. :)
We loved our snorkel excursions and the hidden coves you all knew about. The kids loved waterskiing with Dylan too. Tyler will never forget catching his first shark either! :) Please look us up when you find yourselves wanting to check out the states.

You have both been instrumental in giving us a fabulous vacation! You've gone above and beyond to make our time on Slivochka especially memorable.
Keri's food was world class delicious, Keri-you seemed to anticipate our every need even before we knew it ourselves. Such as offering hot chocolate after coming back, a bit chilly, after snorkeling. And bringing up blankets at night to the group on the sky bridge because we may become chilly. Dylan-you kept us safe in the wind and the rainstorms. You were so patient with those who had less snorkeling experience and led us on the great snorkeling paddle board caravan with your strong & capable swimming prowess. You miraculously saved Paul's hearing aids, coming to their rescue with the crevice of the rocks at "The Indians" snorkeling location. We cannot imagine a more gracious and capable crew, and we have been blessed.
Thank you for fond memories that will last a lifetime!
P.S. sorry about sinking the floating island...

You shared so many of your stories about your lives and interacted with us all of the time. It was great to have you do this and make us feel so at home! We felt that you are an extended part of our family. We were comfortable and at home all the time! Dylan your great sense of humor – you challenged the kids and I to competitions, nice – it wasn’t a job it was something that you liked to do. You are very talented at what you do. You shared with us various tasks and gave us all mini lessons on sailing! Each and every meal was far superior to what we have imagined it to be, can we take Keri home with us? Please keep in touch.

Thank you so much for having me and my family on board. This vacation was a blast and easily one of the best I have had. I loved the food, sights and the overall atmosphere. Hopefully I will be back to the Caribbean soon.

I cannot begin to express the gratitude we all have for making what would have been a fun tour into and extraordinary one for our entire family - ages 4 to 76!
You have catered to our every need, helped plan activities for the day, ferried us wherever we wanted to go, played games with us and fed us wonderful meals that were beautifully presented. Thank you for so much!!! It was a tour beyond anything we had hoped for! Tx for my "martinis"!
