TMM can arrange a captain, but not part of their routine to provide a cook, as this would really be transitioning to a fully crewed boat (Cook would need to do the provisioning, etc. This also would eliminate one cabin available for guests on most boats. Simple meals arranged around the grill is our M.O. We pre-season meats and so meal prep is minimum.

Also for the additional cost a cook would require, I would eat out more.

I don't think I have met the OP(captaugie), but glad he enjoyed Sea Tiger (which is my yacht). As a second time owner of a boat in TMM Fleet, I can attest to the satisfaction of TMM Charters by owners as well as charterers.
