Crew Profiles:
Captain Gregory Evans: Greg's love of sailing coupled with his engaging personality led to his first job as a sailing instructor in South Africa. Eager to gain more experience (and see more of the world) Greg joined on with a yacht delivery company, making several Atlantic crossings to charter bases in the Mediterranean, Caribbean. It was on his first visit to the BVI the hook was firmly set! Greg aimed his sights to the luxury catamaran charter industry and advanced through the crew ranks, gaining valuable experience and exposure along the way. From his early days as a deckhand on a 43 m Perini Navi to Captaining a 130ft Classic Schooner in the Seychelles, Greg has pretty much done it all. His professionalism and strong work ethic coupled with his easy-going personality and a great sense of humour make him well-loved by charter guests and fellow crew members alike. As a PADI diver master, avid fisherman, water sports enthusiast and excellent tender driver Greg ensure his charter guests have just as much fun in the water as they do while sailing and relaxing on-board. He joins Lady Fiona straight from the yard and will be tasked with helping with her set up and delivery to the Med this Spring.
Chef/Stewardess Michelle Collins: Michelle began her career in the restaurant and hospitality industry landing a position with an exclusive catering company known for its high-profile weddings, concerts, and corporate functions. Michelle’s love for the water began when was hired as Sole Stewardess on a Private Motor Yacht cruising the South of France and Italy during the Summer season. Always up for a new adventure Michelle joined MSC Cruise Lines for the South African summer season as part of the entertainment and animation team and continued to travel the high seas. Although first hired for her high-end service skills as 1st Stewardess on a Private Mega Yacht cruising the Mediterranean, Michelle was quickly drawn to exquisite chef creations and her passion for cooking was ignited.Michelle's formal chef training began at Antoinette's Cookery School, a small school in South Africa known for its culinary-themed courses focusing on different cultures, countries and gastronomic experiences. Michelle's reputation for impeccable service and emerging chef skills led her to her first job as a chef/mate on a luxury catamaran in the Caribbean. Described in a few words Michelle is easy-going and sociable with a flair for making new guests feel like old friends in no time. Michelle joins Greg in Southampton for the delivery to the sunshine preparing Lady Fiona as the perfect charter yacht.
Greg and Michelle have known each other all their lives. They grew up in the same town, attended the same schools and shared the same circle of friends. After high school, each sailed off in different directions to pursue careers in the Yachting world. Greg and Michelle kept in touch as they hopscotched their way around the Caribbean and Mediterranean and as fate would have it the old friends were reunited when each accepted a position on a Mega Yacht based in Greece. The rest, as they say, is history! For the last 3 years, together the couple has chartered in some of the most spectacular locations around the Caribbean including Panama, St. Vincent & The Grenadines, St Martin and the Virgin Islands (which they quickly fell in love with as their favorite place of all).
