Kieran
I'm Kieran, a Scottish seasoned maritime professional with a real love for the ocean. I've been fortunate enough to sail in opposite ends of the world and had some fantastic experiences out on the water to share with our guests.
From the cold deep waters surrounding the Scottish islands to the shallow warm Coral Sea in Australia's east coast running charters along the Great Barrier Reef from the Whitsunday area.
As Captain onboard, you can rest assured you're being catered for by a captain with a broad knowledge of all things boats, you can feel completely comfortable and relaxed whilst enjoying an amazing experience with friends and loved ones.
Tania
Born and raised in South Africa, my passion for food started quite young as it was a family affair with two grandmothers who were incredible bakers and a grandfather who owned a butcher shop. It was only later on in life I decided to peruse my passions and ever since then I have never looked back. After completing my culinary training at the Superyacht Culinary academy, I was off on the most amazing path and have been blessed to work on many incredible charter and private yachts to date.
I love to cook wholesome and nourishing meals, that are not only delicious but leave all the sensors firing. I often refer to my food as my true love language. From Mediterranean, Italian, Asian and of course fusion. I would say I am well rounded in most culinary styles. Food is not just what I do, it’s what I love.
Rudolf
Hello, I'm Rudolf Snyman, a 29-year-old with a passion for adventure and a diverse skill set that reflects my varied interests. As a qualified personal trainer and massage therapist, I've spent years honing my understanding of the human body and providing tailored solutions for wellness and fitness.
In addition to my work in health and well-being, I've also delved into private security and handyman services, showcasing my adaptability and resourcefulness across different professional domains. My commitment to ensuring the safety and comfort of others, combined with my practical skills, has earned me a reputation for reliability and trustworthiness.
But it's my deep connection with the ocean that truly drives me. Since I was young, I've been drawn to the water, and it's always been a dream of mine to explore the world's oceans. That's why I've found my calling in the yachting industry. With my meticulous attention to detail and natural affinity for client relations, I seamlessly integrate into the world of luxury yachting, exceeding the expectations of even the most discerning clientele.
My love for the ocean isn't just professional—it's personal too. I'm an avid water sports enthusiast, whether I'm fishing, wakeboarding, eFoiling, kitesurfing, or exploring the depths through scuba and free diving. My passion for aquatic adventures knows no bounds, and I'm deeply committed to sustainable practices and responsible stewardship of marine environments.
Driven by a thirst for exploration and a genuine appreciation for the beauty of nature, I embody the spirit of adventure and the pursuit of excellence. With each new endeavor, I strive to inspire others to embrace life's limitless possibilities and to cherish the wonders of the world around them.
