Captain Tristan:

Born to be a sailor, Tristan could say he had his sea legs before he even knew he had legs. His passion for freedom and love for the ocean and nature has always been a quintessential part of his personality.

Growing up in South Africa, Tristan became an avid sailboat racer, placing at a national level. This active lifestyle lead him to further explore the travel opportunities that can be provided stepping on board a charter vessel. His sailing career has brought him from Cape Agulhas, the Mediterranean, across the Atlantic, and now to the Caribbean.

Tristan enjoys spending as much time on the water as he does in the water, snorkeling and diving, and even over the water, playing with the videos he captures with his drone. Crossfit and hiking are other ways he loves to stay physically active and he always is up for a mental challenge in a game of chess.
