CAPTAIN ALAN
Born and raised on the coast of Georgia, just south of Savannah, Alan was immersed in a boating and fishing family that laid the groundwork for his future as a captain.

Realizing that yachting was his true calling, Alan pursued a career in the industry, a decision he’ll tell you was the best he ever made. Known for his engaging conversation and love of sharing new experiences, Alan is a gracious host who delights in introducing guests to stunning locations and exciting activities. An accomplished fisherman, skillful engineer, and thoughtful captain with an infectious smile and can-do attitude, Alan ensures that every guest feels safe and well cared for—whether they’re reeling in the catch of the day, riding a Fliteboard e-foil, or snorkeling with a SeaBob.

CHIEF STEWARDESS BRIANNA
Brianna was raised in the Pacific Northwest, where her love for the water began early, spending summers wakeboarding and tubing with her family along the Columbia River. That lifelong connection to the outdoors made her eventual leap to a career in the ocean feel natural. After high school, she left Washington to compete as a collegiate softball player at the University of Nevada, Reno, before eventually earning her degree in Human and Environmental Science from the University of Alabama.
Before joining the yachting industry, Brianna built a strong foundation in luxury hospitality, working in catering and event management for high-end resorts and wedding venues.
