Seven

Crew Profile

CAPTAIN
LUKE NEL

From a young age I was an avid sportsman, excelling
in athletics, cricket and rugby at a provincial level.
Surfing turned into a passion and then helping out
with washdowns and regattas at the Royal Cape
Yacht Club became the next logical step for me.
Serendipitously a motorcycle accident prevented me
from moving abroad and pursuing my cricket career.
Hence, my focus turned to yachting. I began in 1999
in Mallorca and in 2000 and got my first permanent
job and never looked back. I feel fortunate to do
something I love and am passionate about, truly
blessed.

CHEF
NATASHA CIMAN

From the age of four I was making fresh pasta, baking
breads and cakes and stoking the pizza oven with my
large Italian family. Growing up, my parents and I ran a
small catering business where we would go to their
homes and cook for families. In between all of that I
did some professional singing, dancing, modeling,
sports and most importantly spending time on the
ocean and hiking. Yes!! I'm a water baby and I have to
resist the urge to jump into the ocean constantly. I’ve
owned my own little coffee shop where I produced
home cooked Italian food to go along with their freshly
brewed coffee. After all that and two children I finally
decided to fulfil my dream of doing what I love the
most. Food and Sea. I cannot wait to share my
passion with you and create beautiful memories for
you on Seven.
