Crew Profile
Captain: Kelton Gianni
Hi, I’m Kelton Gianni — a British captain with over a decade of global yachting experience. Since 2012, I’ve worked my way up from deckhand to first officer, then captain, on a wide range of yachts from 40 to 138 meters. Whether it’s overseeing passage planning, running bridge operations, or delivering exceptional guest service, I thrive on the structure and adventure that life at sea offers.
I’m passionate about creating smooth, safe, and exciting journeys for everyone on board. Over the years, I’ve led charters across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, UAE, and Central America. I’ve worked extensively with guests, crews, and captains to deliver high-end, detail-focused service while maintaining a relaxed and approachable style. I’m also a certified rescue diver and love helping guests get the most out of their time in the water.
What drives me most is the joy of helping people connect with the ocean — whether through a peaceful sail, a thrilling dive, or a sunset cruise. With a strong background in leadership, safety, and hands-on yacht operations, I’m here to make sure your charter is not only unforgettable but seamless from start to finish.
Chef: Jeandre Brits
Hi, I’m Jeandré Britz — a chef with a passion for the ocean, good food, and great company. My journey started in South Africa, where I combined my love for hands-on work with a deep interest in hospitality. After working in golf shops, guesthouses, and repair centers, I found my calling in the yachting industry, where I could bring my skills together in a dynamic and adventurous setting.
Over the past few years, I’ve worked aboard vessels ranging from fishing boats to luxury sailing yachts, serving as both chef and first mate. I love cooking fresh, flavorful meals that match the mood and rhythm of life at sea. Whether I’m preparing a casual lunch or a special dinner to celebrate your trip, my goal is to create food that brings people together and enhances every moment on board.
Beyond the galley, I’ve trained as a PWC instructor and completed numerous RYA and STCW certifications, which means I’m always ready to assist with water sports or jump in as deckhand when needed. I bring a relaxed, can-do attitude to every charter, and I’m here to make sure your time on the water is filled with comfort, flavor, and fun.
