Captain Frikkie grew up in small town in the Western Cape of South Africa.

Before turning his passion into yachting, Frikkie started his career as an electrician in the mining industry.

As a teenager he was introduced to sailing and competed in club racing at the Royal Yacht Club. He grew up fishing with his father as a youngster, and still enjoys throwing a line to this day.

His dream of becoming a yacht captain finally came a reality when he completed his Yachtmaster Ocean course in 2020 at the Two Oceans Maritime Academy in Cape Town. His maiden voyage and ocean crossing from Cape Town to the Caribbean was aboard a VOYAGE 590 which ignited his desire to captain his own yacht even more. Another accomplishment was sailing from Cape Town to Madagascar on the rough seas of the South African coast.

When Frikkie's not on the water chartering, he is in the water enjoying his other hobbies, surfing, diving and wakeboarding.

Frikkie has a light hearted personality and a great sense of humor. He is always quick to crack a joke and make everyone around him happy. He is incredibly passionate about his career and takes great pride in providing guests with a memorable experience whilst onboard.
