About the Crew

Meet the Crew of Ascension

Captain Matías • Chef Eden • First Mate Maia

Captain: Matías Bóveda

Born and raised in Argentina, Matías discovered his passion for the sea sailing alongside his father in the wild southern Atlantic. His maritime journey carried him through Brazil and Barcelona, where he honed his skills as a sailmaker with Quantum Sails for four years. Since then, he has navigated countless miles across the Caribbean and the Atlantic aboard sailing, racing, and motor yachts.

An avid waterman, Matías is an expert kitesurfer, foil surfer, and wing foiler, as well as an advanced scuba diver and enthusiastic fisherman. Since 2021, he has been at the helm of Ascension, chartering throughout The Bahamas, Belize, Mexico, The Grenadines, and the Leeward and Windward Islands. His calm confidence, precision, and deep knowledge of the Caribbean ensure each voyage is as safe as it is unforgettable. With Matías at the helm, guests can relax knowing every day will bring adventure, discovery, and the best anchorages in paradise.

Chef: Eden Córdova

Hailing from Mexico’s Riviera Maya, Eden brings the heart and soul of his homeland to every plate. With a career built in exclusive private villas and high-end guest houses, he masterfully fuses traditional Mexican flavors with international inspirations, crafting dishes that delight every palate.

Renowned for his creativity, attention to detail, and warm hospitality, Eden has orchestrated everything from elegant weddings to themed dinners and curated tasting menus. Now in his second season aboard Ascension, he transforms each meal into a sensory experience — colorful, vibrant, and unforgettable. Expect your days on board to be filled with the aromas and flavors of the tropics, and every dinner to end with smiles and satisfied sighs.

First Mate: Maia Liaudat

For Maia, sailing runs in the family — but her true love for life at sea blossomed when she began voyaging alongside Matías. Together, they’ve sailed extensively throughout the Caribbean, from Mexico to Florida, The Bahamas, Belize, and beyond.

Her background in advertising and event production gives her a natural gift for coordination and guest care, while her warmth and intuition make her an exceptional host. A passionate water sports enthusiast and nature lover, Maia is also a certified Hatha Yoga instructor who brings balance and energy to life on board. Guests love joining her for gentle sunrise yoga or mindful stretching on deck — the perfect way to begin another beautiful day on the water.

A Team United by Passion

Matías, Eden, and Maia are more than a crew — they’re a family at sea, perfectly in sync and genuinely dedicated to creating magic for their guests. From the first welcome to the final farewell, every detail is handled with professionalism, care, and joy.

Together, they make your stay aboard Ascension seamless, vibrant, and full of heart.
They can’t wait to welcome you on board and share their love for the sea, good food, and unforgettable adventures.

Thank you a million times

Matias, Maia + Eden,
Thank you a million times for the most amazing experience aboard Ascension.
The boat is so comfortable, and sails so beautifully, but the real beauty is you guys.
Being foodies, we looked forward to every meal, and stuffed ourselves, happily. Every anchorage was a delight, and we always heard "Yes!" to our requests.
We loved snorkeling with you, and hunting underwater surprises. Sharing stories was a delight. Your intuition and ability to mold to our group's wants & needs was flawless. Not an easy task. Eden created the most amazing dishes, both beautiful and flavourful. We hope to see you again and have more adventures!!
Best to You,
Debbie + Anthony

It is the beginning of a friendship!

Dear Maia, Mati, and Eden, how lucky we are to have been able to share unforgettable moments full of closeness with each of you and with all of you together—it is the beginning of a friendship.

A hug for each of you and for the three of you together.

Peace, Joy, and Love — The Family’s Floating Oasis”

Some may say they are the most sought-after things in life: peace, joy, and love. For the three of you to foster, celebrate, and support one another in these ways seems to be a dream.
For you three to invite others into your floating oasis of peace, joy, and love — the greatest of gifts.

With all sincerity and gratitude, we thank you for helping us feel held, cared for, and finally able to rest.
This has been the greatest family vacation we have ever had.

Matias, Maia, Eden, we pray you rest and enjoy your time away. Thank you for all y’all did to care for us.

The catamaran (ASCENSION) is a solid beauty

Thank you for such an amazing week sailing and kiting on the South Caribbean. Our expectations were already really high before doing this trip. And you guys exceeded them by far. The catamaran (ASCENSION) is a solid beauty; the food was perfect, way better than any gourmet restaurant in town. The crew always in all the details and really on top of every single situation, which is really important in a trip like this one. If you are looking for an adventure in paradise in a 5 star hotel and with the perfect crew, this is it! No doubt.
Hope to see you back soon on another trip!
Good Winds and see you soon.
