Your Crew
CAPTAIN Frik Olivier & CHEF Petro van Biljoen
Frik Olivier
As a highly skilled and safety-oriented professional, I hold the esteemed RYA YachtMaster Offshore certification and proudly captain a 45ft Leopard Catamaran. With an extensive sailing background that spans over 32,000 nautical miles across 20 countries, my commitment to safety is unwavering.
My proficiency lies in precise navigation, meticulous vessel management, attentive crew leadership, and a comprehensive understanding of marine systems. My overarching goal is to leverage this wealth of knowledge and experience to serve as a dedicated Skipper within a distinguished charter company. I am particularly enthusiastic about establishing a presence in the BVI, where I aim to uphold the highest standards of safety, care, and thoughtful planning in every maritime journey.
Over the past 5 years, our voyages have covered 32,000 nautical miles, offering not only a profound understanding of diverse weather patterns across over 80 Latitude Degrees but also enriching our expertise in anchoring, mooring, and prevailing wind conditions. Having traversed the Eastern Caribbean multiple times, we have acquired an in-depth knowledge of anchorages and holding conditions in various regions, including the Bahamas, USVI, BVI, St. Maarten, Antigua, SVG, and Grenada.
In every aspect of my role as a Skipper, I prioritize safety as the cornerstone, ensuring that each voyage is executed with the utmost care and consideration for the well-being of both the vessel and its passengers. My dedication to excellence and comprehensive understanding of the intricacies of maritime travel make me an ideal candidate to lead and facilitate memorable and secure sailing experiences for charter clients.
