A note from your charter specialist
“I've been on board ILLUSION more times than I can count, and she still surprises me. With space for 6 guests, she works equally well for a multi-generational family week or a tighter group of friends who want every cabin to feel like a suite. In Caribbean especially, the itinerary options around her are exceptional — and the crew know every anchorage worth the detour.”

Bruno Franceschi
Captain

Bruno Franceschi

Bruno holds his Captain 200-ton license and has been impressing our clients for the past 5 years with his tailor-made yacht charter experiences. He knows the Caribbean Leeward and the Windward Islands inside out as he lived and worked there for many years as CEO of the French newspaper France Antilles.

He loves nothing more than showing his guests the beauty of the different islands aboard sailing catamaran ILLUSION.

Chrystelle Larroque
Chef / Mate

Chrystelle Larroque

France · French, English

Chef/Mate Chrystelle Larroque Chrystelle is originally from Metz, France. Her father worked for an oil services company, so Chrystelle was able to live an international life in her youth. Abu Dhabi, Singapore, and Scotland are some of her homes plus other French cities such as Nice and Marseille. As a student, she pursued many sports such as cross country, horseback riding, and swimming. On board, she enjoys helping guests discover underwater and nature around the boat. Chrystelle is an avid snorkeler, paddleboarder, and reader. Chrystelle studied at Ecole Hotelier in Toulouse; Pierre Gagnaire Paris and with Michel Guerrard at Eugeny les bains/Les pras dâ Eugeny. She also attended Lenatre (a culinary school in Paris), and worked with Bruno Delorme (Terre de Truffes). She learned the Michelin way of service in those 3 macaroon (star) places. After her interesting education, and before joining up with Bruno on Illusion in 2020, Chrystelle worked for 6 years as director of a luxury senior's house, complete with a lovely in- house restaurant. With such a background, Chrystelle's foremost cuisine is admittedly French. A favorite among guests is her fresh fish cooked "Al Forno" in a tasty Mediterranean style. Chrystelle is quietly available and her discreet style of service works well with Captain Bruno's friendly and entertaining presence. Her friends describe her as honest, kind, and dynamic and her motto is to always Enjoy Life!
