Meet Chef Francisco

He began working on boats in 2021, right after the COVID-19 pandemic. His first position was in Nassau, Bahamas, cooking on a 67' monohull diving boat, where he prepared buffet-style meals for large groups. This initial experience was challenging yet invaluable, providing the foundation for what was to come.

After completing several rotations, he transitioned to a more refined service aboard a 112' motor yacht in Turks & Caicos. This role required him to cook for 18 guests, plating every meal precisely, an experience that significantly enhanced his cooking and presentation skills.

A year later, his curiosity about sailing led him to a position on a 51' catamaran. He started in the British Virgin Islands before quickly moving to St. Vincent & The Grenadines, spending most of his time around Canouan Island, which served as the starting point for weekly routes.

His next opportunity took him to Antigua, where a new crew and a 70' catamaran awaited. As the head chef, he introduced new flavors and creative presentations, crafting meals for 10 guests each week.

When his time in Antigua came to an end, he moved to Greece for the summer season, working and sailing around the Ionian Islands, an opportunity that allowed him to explore and experience the Mediterranean Sea.
