Glad 2 B Here

After Olympic-style provisioning, a mild to moderate chocolate milk addiction (Will, I am looking at you…), and loads of anticipation for arrival day, team Glad 2 B Here is really, truly glad to be here! Lines are coiled, hatches are dogged, and fenders are ready- welcome aboard!
What will now start as strangers living awkwardly close will soon turn into lifelong friendships, a collection of unexplainable inside jokes, and a knowledge of sailing and diving like no other. We can't wait to live, learn, and sail side by side, watching stunning sunsets, having brownie dance parties, and tacking and jibbing through the BVIs! Meet the staff!

Will- Skipper
Hailing from Philadelphia, Will’s love for the ocean started in high school when he experienced ActionQuest for the first time. During a gap year between high school and college, he sailed across the Atlantic Ocean from South Africa to the Caribbean with Seamester on board S/Y Argo in the Spring of 2023. After that voyage, he stayed in Sint Maarten, completing his IYT 200T Yachtmaster license. Will is thrilled to be back at ActionQuest, skippering for another year! He hopes to help foster excitement and love for the ocean! When Will isn’t on a boat, you can probably find him rock climbing, running, or skiing! The stoke is so high!

Toby- Dive Instructor
Toby first heard about ActionQuest the day he learned how to speak. About 25 years ago, both of his parents were staff members at AQ, and they always said they were the best summers of their lives. Following in their footsteps, Toby started diving when he was 12 during his first session at ActionQuest. He then returned for another two summers, knowing he wanted to continue diving and eventually become a staff member. He decided to take a gap year this year and went to Bali for three months with his brother, Tyler, to do his PADI Divemaster and Instructor courses. After four years of being a student and many years of hearing his parents talk about ActionQuest, Toby worked at AQ for his first year as a staff member! After living in Hawai’i, continuing to teach diving, and getting his Yachtmaster, he’s returning to be a staff member at AQ for his second year!

Siena- Mate, Medic, Fish ID Encyclopedia
Living in Northern California, Siena grew up an ocean lover. She started sailing and diving as a summer camp student and was lucky enough to join Seamester on S/Y Vela, sailing from Bali to Cape Town in the fall of 2023. Siena currently lives in Ireland, studying Biology and Biomedical Sciences at Trinity College Dublin to enter the field of marine biology and reef conservation. She can’t wait to take a break from the rain of Dublin to spend the summer in the sun, sailing, and swimming alongside all of the incredible sea creatures of the Caribbean!
