Meet the 2024-2025 crew!!
Captain CJ -
I grew up in a small town in the west coast of South Africa named Langebaan. It's a beautiful rural town with a breathtaking coastline with many water activities right at your doorstep.
Since I can remember, I've always been out at sea with my father and his friends, catching fish, diving, surfing, and sailing the west coast and around Cape Town. From a young age I have been taught about the ocean and the beauty of it, in some ways it has become an addiction of mine to spend every day out at sea.
As I got older, I got a scholarship to play rugby for a school in South Africa and had to move away from the ocean. My plan was to pursue a career in Rugby but unfortunately COVID-19 came along, and I had to work to earn an income. I was unsure on what to do, so I turned to the thing I know and love most, spending my time at sea! This is when my career in the yachting industry began. I have been in the industry since 2021 and had the opportunity to gain experience and knowledge in many different aspects of the industry.
I greatly enjoy entertaining guests, showing them around on the water, and teaching them the beauty of the ocean.
Chef Tilley -
Having grown up in the waterfront city of Portsmouth in the UK I was always surrounded by water. From a young age I have been
absolutely captivated by it, finding any excuse to be on the water. My Father owned a small sailboat and from the age of 4 I was out most weekends with him sailing around the city and across the water to the nearby Island, Isle of Wight. I also participated in Kayaking, paddle boarding and more as I grew older.
With my mother being a chef I was constantly on call for any help I could give her in the kitchen which is where my love for cooking comes from. When I go home, I often cook for family and friends to show them the new tastes and cuisine I have discovered on my travels.
Before I joined the Yachting industry I was working as a Travel Agent for mostly high-end clients, creating their dream luxurious trips with activities and excursions pre planned for them. I thoroughly enjoyed this job as I was helping these families and couples create lifelong experiences of seeing the world.

Our chef Janine prepared amazing meals and is just such a special person!
Miss you guys like crazy, you can count on seeing us again!

Now, don’t do anything I wouldn’t 😉
Captain Jake took us to amazing spots and great snorkel reefs. He is a very talented and safe captain always watching his guests and commanding his boat. He has a wide variety of song lists that fits the mood of the day or evening! His dancing abilities are phenomenal and we had so much fun!
Chef Janine prepared and presented our meals with such class like you see in magazines that can't be real. She always accommodated our needs with food options if needed. She worked with Jake handling of the boat with ease. Enjoyed her company and conversations of travels.
I can't wait to book again with you both as i felt my youth reappear!!!
Cheers,
Tom Toth
We had an amazing time exploring the beautiful British Virgin Islands under Captain Jake's guidance. The seamless blend of comfort, knowledge, and breathtaking views made this trip truly unforgettable. Without a doubt, we would gladly embark on this adventure again. Highly recommend for those seeking a perfect mix of relaxation and exploration!!
