Our Story

Myst was founded by Candice Chivilo, who began her charter broker career in 2011. Her love for sailing was sparked during her time on her university sailing team and years of coaching at yacht clubs across the U.S. and abroad. After gaining valuable experience in finance, she found her dream job as a charter broker, seamlessly blending her passions for sales, sailing, and travel.

Originally named Seize the Day Charters, we rebranded as Myst Yacht Charters in 2023 to reflect the magic and wonder of the yachting lifestyle.
