Crew Info:
Captain Roy Pat Rucker
Captain Roy Pat Rucker has helped dozens of clients experience unforgettable dream vacations since 2013. He has spent over 4 years sailing around the Virgin Islands and is a certified advanced diver. He’s a Texas-born-and-raised cowboy who worked on ranches and rodeoed in his youth.
He recently retired from BP after 30 years of service, where he held many roles including mechanic, lead tech, maintenance team leader, fireteam leader, and maintenance planner working on offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caspian sea off the coast of Azerbaijan.
In 2017, he lost his Three Moons Charter yacht to Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. He was devastated at seeing the damage the island had taken and all his hard work in utter desolation. He did everything right, but in the end, he lost his dream and his crew lost their jobs.
Through the ordeal, however, he ended up getting married and realized how much he had loved his time on S/Y Three Moons. He and his wife, Natalie decided to get a catamaran together and start over.
