Meet Stephanie Lowrey: The Heart Behind Songs In The Sails Yacht Charters (2025 Edition)
Where It All Began — And Where We Are Now
Songs In The Sails Yacht Charters began with a simple but powerful idea: bring people together through unforgettable experiences on the water.
In 2021, I was already deeply involved in the yacht charter world — attending yacht shows, hopping from vessel to vessel, inspecting boats, meeting crews, and learning the industry from the inside out. But I knew something was missing in the market.
Too many people were booking charters through:
- Anonymous online websites
- Pushy “brokers” who disappeared after payment
- Companies that never set foot on the yachts they sold
I wanted to create something different. Yacht charters are more than a memory; they are an experience that leaves a place in your heart.
Fast forward to 2025, and Songs In The Sails Yacht Charters has grown into a boutique luxury yacht charter brokerage specializing in crewed yacht charters worldwide, with a strong focus on the Caribbean and the Mediterranean.
Today, we offer:
- Destinations worldwide
- Yachts ranging from 45-foot luxury catamarans to 200-foot motor yachts
- Crewed sailing yachts, catamarans, and motor yachts
- Fully all-inclusive and APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) charters
But more importantly, we offer peace of mind.
Every charter we book is more than a vacation — it’s an experience that stays with you long after you return home. Yacht charters leave a place in your heart. I’ve seen it time and time again.
The Clients I Love Working With (And Why That Matters)
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned over the years is that not every client is the right fit — and that’s okay.
The clients I love working with most are those who value:
- Thoughtful planning
- Expert guidance
- Clear communication
- A seamless, handled-for-you experience
I work with:
- Families creating once-in-a-lifetime memories
- Couples celebrating milestones or reconnecting
- Friends planning meaningful getaways
- Business executives who want someone to handle everything
- Celebrations — birthdays, anniversaries, life successes, and more
What we don’t do:
- Day charters
- Sunset cruises
- High-volume, quick-sale bookings
Yacht charters deserve time, care, and expertise. If someone is looking for a quick transaction, I’m probably not the right broker — and I’m okay with that.
My Role Today: Fully Hands-On, Always Accessible
One thing that surprises clients the most?
I handle every booking personally.
From your first inquiry to the day you step off the yacht, I am involved. I don’t pass you off to an assistant. I don’t disappear after contracts are signed.
I’m available on my personal cell phone — before, during, and after your charter.
Here’s what that looks like in real life:
✔ Curated Preference Sheets
We don’t send generic forms. Our preference sheets are thoughtfully designed to uncover what actually matters to you — food, activities, pacing, celebrations, and comfort.
✔ Yacht Inspections — Worldwide
I travel to view yachts in person across the Caribbean and Mediterranean. I don’t rely solely on photos or brochures. If I recommend a yacht, it’s because I’ve vetted it or trust the professionals managing it.
✔ Crew Vetting
A yacht is only as good as its crew. I take crew quality seriously — experience, professionalism, attitude, and hospitality all matter.
✔ Scam Protection
This is huge.
We do not work with just anyone. Every yacht, manager, and contract must meet strict criteria. With so many fake brokers and fraudulent websites online, protecting clients is part of my job — and one I don’t take lightly.
My “Why”: Why the Right Broker Matters
Here’s the truth: many people don’t realize until it’s too late:
The yacht charter industry has very few barriers to entry online.
What frustrates me most:
- Websites pretending to be real people
- Brokers who pressure you to “book now”
- Misinformation about pricing, contracts, and inclusions
There are standards in this industry — and the right broker is held to them.
When you work with a professional charter broker:
- Funds are protected properly
- Contracts are legitimate
- Yachts are vetted
- Crews are screened
- Expectations are managed honestly
My job is not to sell you a yacht.
My job is to protect your experience and your investment.
The Moments That Make It All Worth It
Clients often thank me for being attentive — and that means everything to me.
The moment I know I’m doing exactly what I’m meant to do?
When a client is genuinely excited.
When the charter goes exactly how they hoped.
When they come back and say, “We’re already planning our next one.”
Those moments never get old.
A Little About Me — Beyond Yachts
I believe people book with people they trust — so here’s a bit more about me.
- I’ve been happily married for over 22 years to singer-songwriter Levi Lowrey.
- I’m a proud mom of two “man-children” who keep life interesting
- I’m based in Athens, Georgia
- I was in Artist Management and creating unique experiences for 18 years.
- I am absolutely a coffee person
- At home: espresso
- Starbucks: Hazelnut Shaken Espresso
- Local café: cappuccino
- Favorite destinations? Greece and the British Virgin Islands — always
I love food, travel, water, and meaningful connections. And yes — all of that finds its way into how I plan charters.
Why Greece and the Caribbean Steal Hearts
If I had to recommend destinations that consistently change people?
Greece
History, culture, food, warmth, and soul. Each island has its own personality, and the people will win you over instantly. These islands have helped me to dream and explore more as an adult.
British Virgin Islands
Easy sailing, stunning anchorages, laid-back luxury, and some of the best all-inclusive crewed yacht charters in the world. These islands are what captured my heart for yacht charters and helping people plan their vacations.
Both are perfect for first-time charterers and seasoned travelers alike.
Let Me Help You — Even If You’re Just Exploring
If you’re still in the planning phase, I want you to know this:
You don’t have to book immediately.
You don’t even have to book with me.
But I’m always happy to:
- Answer questions
- Review a charter quote
- Help you understand options
- Curate yacht ideas tailored specifically to you
No pressure. No sales tactics.
Just honest guidance from someone who cares deeply about doing this the right way.
