Meet the Crew
From Texas trails to tropical tides, Captain Shawn’s journey has always flowed between two worlds. Raised in a quaint Texas town, she grew up with a blend of equestrian grace and aquatic adventure, spending her childhood either on horseback or at anchor in quiet coves. At her family’s hunting lodge, she discovered her love for cooking and hospitality, preparing meals for guests and learning the art of creating comfort through food and warmth.
Her professional path began in education, with summers devoted to water sports and exploring the cultures that shaped her passion for life on the water. Eventually, the call of the Virgin Islands became impossible to ignore. Leaving behind a career in the oil and gas sector, Shawn charted a new course — transforming a lifelong dream into a thriving reality.
As a yacht owner, captain, chef, and island guide, she first brought her talents to the jointly owned and chartered sailing catamaran, SV Cashmere, blending seamanship, service, and soul. Today, she pours that same dedication into SV Oceans 8, where her servant-hearted approach, culinary creativity, and deep local knowledge come together to craft unforgettable guest experiences.
Whether guiding guests through turquoise bays, preparing fresh island-inspired dishes, or sharing the hidden gems of the Virgin Islands, Shawn invites you to savor the beauty of the sea and the thrill of adventure. A journey aboard Oceans 8 isn’t just a vacation — it’s a memory in the making.
Chef Julian Ayala
A native Texan with a lifelong connection to the water, Julian’s love of cooking began alongside his love of the outdoors. Raised on Gulf Coast fishing trips and family gatherings centered around food, he developed a passion for fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and the kind of meals that bring people together.
Before transitioning fully to life at sea, Julian built a successful 28-year career in the energy sector after earning his degree from the University of Houston. His entrepreneurial drive led him to operate his own consulting firm, where leadership, organization, and attention to detail were essential. Those same qualities now define his approach in the galley.
As an owner-operator aboard a 50’ sailing catamaran in the Virgin Islands, Julian served as captain, first mate, and chef — managing provisioning, creating customized menus, and delivering full charter experiences for guests. He holds a USCG 100 GRT Master’s License with Sailing Endorsement, along with STCW, ENG1, TABC, and Food Handling certifications.
In the galley, Julian focuses on fresh, flavorful meals inspired by coastal living — from expertly grilled seafood and Texas-inspired specialties to island favorites and handcrafted cocktails. He enjoys creating relaxed, memorable dining experiences that reflect the beauty of the Caribbean.
With calm confidence and genuine hospitality, Chef Julian looks forward to welcoming guests aboard and sharing the simple pleasures of great food and life on the water.
