Duff Walter is a very accomplished cruising and racing sailor, a US Coast Guard licensed Master Captain and a certified scuba diver. He has over 35 years experience sailing in the Chesapeake Bay, Caribbean Sea. Atlantic Ocean, and Great Lakes.

Before deciding to go to sea for a living, Duff was a partner in a CPA firm specializing in fraud investigations and has an MBA from the University of Maryland in computer Sciences.
The design and detailed outfitting of SUDIKI embodies Duff’s long and varied sailing career. He willingly shares his extensive sailing knowledge - including celestial navigation - with those who show interest. As an ‘old hand’ in the Grenadines, Duff likes to show his guests the real Caribbean, meeting the local folks and experiencing local ways. Duff has an easy-going, unflappable personality and knows how to enjoy life to the fullest.
Chris Walter is English by birth, spent part of her childhood in Malaya and has enjoyed traveling ever since. Educated at Cambridge University, she was a teacher before beginning her charter career in the Caribbean in 1973. She managed a restaurant in Marblehead, Massachusetts and had her own business in Maryland. Chris’ boating background runs the gamut from classic to high-tech. She grew up sailing an 1875 Bristol Pilot Cutter and later served as chef on a number of famous maxi-racers.
Chris has a US Coast Guard Captain’s License and has done extensive offshore and coastal sailing and racing. She is also a certified scuba diver. A cheerful person who calls herself a hedonist, she takes great delight in spoiling and dazzling her guests.
