About

I'm a South African born ex-chef turned Bosun, coming from a chef background in top South African restaurants and a few yachts. I found my passion for the deck department in my first few seasons and haven't looked back since. I thrive in pressured environments and enjoy learning as much as I can. I take pride in my work ethic and will always do my best to achieve my goals and tasks. I love being part of a team and enjoy growing with peers.
