Simon Davison
Captain
Simon has been sailing professionally since 1988. Prior to this he trained as a boat builder in South Hampton. Super yachting has taken him all over the world, from Alaska to Cape Town, & the Pacific. He particularly enjoyed the Classic yacht racing, still embracing the old traditions of the sea onboard today’s modern yachts. He’s a friendly, outgoing person who enjoys cycling and a fit active lifestyle.
Louise Martin
Chef
Chef Louise has been cooking within the Superyacht industry for around twenty years, on a variety of motor and sailing yachts cruising around the world. The majority of the boats have been Mediterranean based, so his cooking style reflects this, with strong accents on fresh, healthy ingredients, sourced locally where possible, intermingled with homemade delicious desserts, pastries and breads. Whilst between boats, Louis did a three-month stage at a Michelin starred restaurant in Winchester, UK, called the Back Rat. The style of food was fresh locally sourced ingredients for British cuisine, with a modern twist. With a friendly easy-going nature, Louise is passionate about good food, cooking what people love to eat and introducing them to new cuisines and flavors that reflect where the boat is cruising. Louise was born in the South of England, where she grew up not far from London. With regular visits to Europe for holidays from a young age, her love for food was definitely inspired from all the lovely markets and restaurants she ate in and visited. In her spare time, she loves to explore new places, keep fit, and read. Louise also loves live music and theatre.
Katherine “Kayt” Wright
Chief Stewardess
Kayt grew up between Shanghai and the west coast of Scotland. Sailing was a mainstay of early childhood! She has been in the industry for six years on boats as far-flung as Indonesia and Hong Kong. Before joining superyachts Kayt was a personal stylist. Tablescapes and cocktails are her creative outlet onboard; she aims to wow. Passionate about guest care and service Kayt will make charters memorable. In her free time Kayt enjoys yoga, hiking and visiting galleries.
Alexandra “Alex” Booth
