Crew Profile

Captain: Jean Van Wyngaard

Jean grew up in a small fishing town in South Africa. After completing school, he did a 6-month apprenticeship in building boats. Once he completed his apprenticeship, he got offered a contract to go play rugby in England. Having an injury changed his vision into hospitality and he went to Dubai to work for well-known hotels like Marriott International & IHG hotel groups in the food & beverage department.

Jean met his fiancé in Dubai and they decided to travel the world by working in the yachting industry.

Jean is passionate about the ocean and he strives to make the crew and guests have a memorable time and safety is where it all starts.

After realizing that his passion is with the ocean, he has aimed to progress in his career. Jean aims to complete his 300 GT ticket.

His certifications include GST, NAV & Radar, ARPA, GMDSS, Helm & Bridge Management, Advance Fire & Medical Advance Sea Survival, STCW, PDSD, Powerboat Level 2, PWC (jet-ski), Yacht Master Unlimited, Food & Hygiene Level 3, & VHF Radio.

Jean enjoys fishing, sports, kayaking, and scuba diving on his time off.

Chef: Jessica Luyt

Jessica is from Cape Town, South Africa. She originally joined yachting as a stewardess 5 years ago, where she worked on one of the world’s largest motor yachts (163m) and then became chief stew on a 38m sailing vessel. In 2021 she spent the year in culinary school, where she found her love for desserts and cake decorating.

Jessica loves to travel and discover new flavors from around the world, she is greatly inspired by Asian flavors due to a year spent in Thailand and backpacking most of Southeast Asia. Jess enjoys hiking when her feet are on land and especially enjoys cold dips in the ocean.

First Mate: Kyle Cross

Kyle is from Johannesburg, South Africa and is half Scottish. He grew up nowhere near the ocean but had family that lived on the coast, this is where his love for the ocean started at a young age. He is the mate onboard and has 18 years of experience on yachts of all shapes and sizes. One of his greatest achievements is racing across the Atlantic Ocean by sailboat.

He plans to keep building on his already vast experience, traveling the world and experiencing all that is out there to one day soon be the best captain he can be.

In his downtime, he enjoys many water sports but by far loves fishing the most. He also enjoys getting back to his roots and is an avid camper of the off-beaten track, normally never too far from water.

Chief Stew: J-Dean van der Westhuizen

Named after James Dean, J-Dean grew up Potchefstroom – an academic town 120km southwest of Johannesburg, South Africa. After completing her degree in Communication Management and honors in Entrepreneurship and Marketing at The North West University, she moved to Johannesburg to start a career as a new business executive. This new career only lasted a year and a half when she realized living in one place was not meant for her.

Her heart was yearning to travel the world, meet new people, and learn about other cultures. J-Dean resigned from her big city job to pursue her dream as a stewardess with Emirate Airlines where she worked for 3 years. Meeting her now fiancé in Dubai, they decided to join the yachting industry together in 2017.

J-Dean & Jean started working on VIVIERAE II for Bob & Sandy Giles in 2019 and have not looked back since. She aims to give the best experience to guests, making them feel comfortable and at home on board whilst giving them what they want before they even know it.

J-Dean’s yachting certifications include STCW, PDSD, Powerboat Level 2, Advanced Scuba Diver, and Food & Hygiene Level 2.

J-Dean enjoys any adventures on her time off including hiking, scuba diving, team sports, arts and crafts.

During her studies, she met Dennis and they got married when she graduated in 2020. After two years of marriage, they decided to go on the great adventure that is yachting. She has always wanted to travel, and yachting seemed like the perfect way to go. She and Dennis started their yachting careers in January 2023 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and joined VIVIERAE II in March 2023. She loves the outdoors and learning new things. She has a passion for exercise and being healthy.

Testimonials

Dec 28 - Jan 4,  2019 charter

Terrific vacation. We have been on many charters and this was the best yet! Great Yacht. Top, top notch crew!

Courteous, attentive, knowledgeable are all adjectives that apply describing the Captain and crew. Jay was safety-conscious, made us aware of options on a daily basis, thoroughly investigated our alternatives, and planned based on our wishes. Ben and Jon took us on a number of adventures and were great hosts, from a beach picnic to water skiing, kayaking, snorkeling, ATV rides, and more. Very enjoyable hosts. And Lauren was thoroughly delightful.

A bunch of “foodies” were on this trip and Maxine exceeded all our culinary expectations.

Yacht was kept in immaculate condition the entire trip, and it’s a beautiful boat, top to bottom.

Captain Jay presented us with our alternatives for each day and we set the pace and activities we wanted. For the time of year we were on the yacht (late Dec. to early Jan.) the pacific side of Panama was amazing! San Jose Island in particular.

Would definitely charter this yacht again. Wonderful yacht. Absolutely outstanding crew.

Please let he owner know how very pleased we were with his outstanding crew (our best yet) and beautiful boat.
