Your Crew
CAPTAIN WILL & CHEF/MATE ANNA
WILL – I grew up on the water spending my summers sailing, fishing, water skiing, and wakeboarding in Ireland. I began working in the sailing industry at the young age of 16 as an instructor. Each year I worked my way up the ranks gaining the skills to eventually start teaching learn-to-sail holidays in Greece. I then moved on to be a charter skipper while studying for my degree in Computing. At the time, sailing was a fun summer job. I never thought of it as a full-time career until Anna joined me in Croatia.
The dream of working in the Caribbean formed quickly between us but we decided to finish our studies and gain experience in our respective fields before taking the plunge. I took a job as a Graphic Designer for a PR company in London which really taught me what kind of life I want to live. I appreciate living on the water every day and know how lucky I am to do so! I love delivering holidays of a lifetime to my guests, with many of them becoming lifetime friends.
ANNA – I grew up in Dublin, Ireland. After graduating from University I went into education and became a teacher for children with special educational needs. However, my love for cooking kept growing, and when Will began working in the charter industry I jumped at the opportunity to go with him and become a chef on board.
I always dreamed of attending the world-renowned Ballymaloe Cookery School to expand my culinary skills, which finally became a reality in 2021. The intensive 12-week course taught me so many new skills and gave me invaluable experience. I plan on studying cooking further this summer in the Ashburton Yacht Chef course. I love learning new techniques that I can bring into my galley. My biggest passion is creating food that brings joy to my guests and makes their holidays that little bit more special.
