Crew Profile
Captain: Lisa Roland
Captain Lisa grew up sailing in Nova Scotia Canada where she fell in love with the sea. Her years on the water prepared her for an exciting career in yachting and her true love for her work is apparent to anyone onboard. There are few things she loves more than sharing her enthusiasm for the sea, both above it and below with others through sailing, diving, educating, learning, and experiencing. Beginning with a passion for the art of seafaring and unending adventure, Lisa spent much of her career exploring many exciting parts of this world. She began her career on tall ships, where she learned that the only thing to understand about life at sea is that you will spend every single day learning, and she has sailed many miles with this knowledge. This has led her well, through a fantastic career, and most recently to a world record, for the fastest female pair to row unsupported across the Atlantic Ocean.
"The greatest joy in my job is being able to create exceptional moments which simply couldn't be re-created.”
