Welcome to ISLAND STANDARD TIME

ISLAND STANDARD TIME, a 2021 Bali 4.8, sets a new benchmark for private charter. Recognized as 'Best in Show' at the 2024 BVI Charter Yacht Society, her design prioritizes expansive living over volume. Four queen cabins accommodate eight guests with refined space. Autonomous systems, including solar power, air conditioning, and a water maker, ensure self-sufficiency and uninterrupted comfort. The experience aboard is precisely tailored. Chef Cian Browne, trained at Ballymaloe and Sydney's top kitchens, designs a fully customizable menu. The vessel carries an array of meticulously selected resources: underwater scooters, a subwing, and a floating dock for precise recreation. Captain Solomon Wood, adept at navigating diverse waters, ensures every aspect of the charter is executed with quiet confidence, crafting a distinctly personal escape.

Solomon Josiah Wood

Solomon first learned to sail in the rugged waters of Scotland, where the mix of wild seas and sweeping coastlines sparked a passion for sailing that has only grown stronger over the years. What began as a pastime soon developed into a lifelong passion for the sea. For the past four summers, Solomon has been based in Croatia, working in private charters and guiding guests through some of the most beautiful sailing waters in the Mediterranean. With a focus on creating unforgettable experiences, Solomon takes pride in ensuring every guest has the best week of their lives onboard.

Holding an RYA Yachtmaster Offshore qualification with both STCW and Commercial Endorsement, Solomon brings both professionalism and passion to every charter. Beyond the technical skills, what sets Solomon apart is a deep love for introducing people to sailing and sharing the joy of life at sea. Whether it’s navigating turquoise bays, teaching guests how to sail, or simply creating moments of calm on deck, Solomon embodies both adventure and hospitality.

Cian Browne

Cian Browne

Chef

Cian trained at Ballymaloe Cookery School in Ireland, graduating with first-class honours. The farm-to-fork ethos there gave him a deep respect for ingredients, seasonality, and the power of simple food cooked with care. During his time, he also worked service at Ballymaloe House, plating five-course dinners for over 80 covers a night—an experience that sharpened both his technical skills and his ability to thrive under pressure.

He went on to do stages at Margaret’s and Quay in Sydney, both 2- and 3-hatted restaurants, where he gained invaluable insight into fine dining kitchens at the highest level. Since then, Cian has cooked across a wide range of kitchens and settings. He has worked as a private chef, designing bespoke menus and catering events, and more recently spent a winter season in the French Alps, running chalets and preparing multi-course meals for new groups of guests each week. That role taught him how to adapt quickly, balance precision with warmth, and bring a restaurant-level standard to a homely setting.

Most recently, he joined The Yacht Week, cooking on board for groups of 8–10 guests in Croatia. Life at sea demanded flexibility, creativity, and the ability to design menus that suited diverse tastes and dietary needs—all in the tightest of kitchens. It was as much about creating an experience as it was about the food, which is exactly what he loves about this career.

Alongside his chef work, Cian also works as a freelance MC and event manager, a role that has honed his skills in performance, organization, and creating energy and connection for groups—qualities that naturally flow into his cooking and hospitality.

Originally from Ireland, he has lived and cooked in Australia, England, France, and back home again. His journey has always been about chasing great food and even better craic, and for him, cooking is about more than flavour—it’s about people, memories, and shared experiences.
