Captain
Nick Binnendijk

Nick was born in Holland but soon moved abroad with his family. He spent a number of years living all around the world including The UK, Massachusetts (Boston) and California before settling back in England for 12 years. While in England, he spent as much time as possible (when he wasn’t at school) sailing and windsurfing on the Thames. It was during that time that he was racing every weekend at his local Yacht Club as well as travelling around the UK for various sailing events.
Nick did this for a number of years before moving to the French Alps, teaching skiing in the winter and spending summers on the Caribbean island, Bonaire.
To cut a long story short, being on the water is what makes him a happy!
After all these years, he has finally found the perfect person for a marvellous adventure on the water, together, and without hesitation him & Veer both agreed to start work aboard Enhansement. This winter he is very excited to be onboard Enigma in the Caribbean while Enhansement remains in the Med.

Veronique

Veer grew up in Breukelen, a small village near Utrecht (NL) and moved to Amsterdam at the age of 18. She studied at the International Hotel School before going into the events and party planning industry. Veer has a large passion for hospitality and in particular, cooking.
Throughout the years, she has gathered a large amount of dishes from all sorts of different cultures around the globe.
Veer has always loved the adventure of visiting countries abroad but never imagined giving up the “Dutch” lifestyle. Nevertheless, when she met Nick, their crazy adventure soon started to take form and before she knew it, they had packed our bags and were ready to start their job on the beautiful ‘Enhansement” yacht! This winter they are on board Enigma VIII in the Caribbean while Enhansement remains in the Med.

The yachting industry has no global listing service to which all charter yachts must subscribe to, making it impossible to ascertain a truly up-to-date view of the market. Charter Index is a news and information service and not always informed when yachts leave the charter market, or when they are recently sold and renamed, it is not always clear if they are still for charter. Whilst we endeavour to maintain accurate information, the existence of a listing on Charter Index should in no way supersede official documentation supplied by the representatives of a yacht.
