Chef
Captain John Yoxall
Originally from England, John has embraced a truly international lifestyle, having lived in seven different countries. His love for sailing blossomed while studying at the University of Toronto, leading him to transition from a corporate career to professional sailing. John has expertly navigated yachts across the Caribbean and the stunning waters of Greece.

Chef Bryny Van Wyk
Bryny grew up along the beautiful coastlines of South Africa, as a passionate surfer, chasing waves at dawn and spending countless hours in the water. This ignited a lifelong love and deep connection for the ocean.

Blending her love for the sea with the joy of cooking meals on the water. “There’s something magical about preparing food while being surrounded by endless blue, where the oceans energy fuels my creativity”

Later in life Bryny discovered the thrill of dinghy sailing, a new way to explore the natural forces of wind and water. This experience sparked a deep passion for sailing and navigating the open seas. Constantly inspired by its power, beauty and unpredictability.

As a surfer, sailor & chef every wave, journey & meal is a reminder of life’s simple, yet profound pleasures. “The ocean is not just my playground, but my home”
