Anouk is known to thousands of cruising sailors as the "Jewelry Lady of North Sound" for the years she spent buzzing from yacht to yacht in the anchorages of the BVI's Virgin Gorda, selling her beautiful creations. She is a mother (to her creative and capable son with the movie star name, Lucien Valade) who, now that her son has grown, is free to sail the oceans with her partner, Captain Jaro Hollan on the catamaran Timaiao.
