Crew Profile

CAPTAIN
Will Jameson

Will grew up on the South Coast of England, where his passion for sailing, boats, and the sea has been a lifelong pursuit. His enthusiasm for the water emerged at a young age, and by 16, he had saved enough from his paper round to purchase his first boat, a Dart 18. Around this time, Will began volunteering as a dinghy instructor at a charity-based sailing school, where he took people of all ages and abilities out on the water-including Princess Anne!

After finishing school, Will immediately entered the workforce, starting his own business. However, his love for sailing only deepened. He frequently chartered yachts with friends in the Mediterranean, finding great joy in introducing others to the pleasures of sailing and clear waters. This passion led him to buy his first substantial sailing vessel, "Fay," a 32-foot catamaran that required a complete refit. Will eagerly took on the challenge of refurbishing Fay himself and soon had her back on the water. He embarked on numerous voyages along the South Coast of the UK, as well as across the English Channel to France and the Channel Islands. With an Atlantic crossing under his belt and a Commercially Endorsed Yachtmaster Offshore certification, Will is an experienced and skilled sailor.

When he's not on a boat, Will finds plenty of other ways to stay active. He is a qualified kitesurfing instructor-another activity he believes everyone should try. Will enjoys keeping fit and has completed the Devizes to Westminster canoe ultra marathon, always seeking new challenges. He also enjoys wakeboarding, fishing, and has a keen interest in cars.

CHEF
Matea Kosovic

Matea's culinary journey began in the heart of her home in Croatia, where cooking and sharing meals with loved ones sparked an early passion for food. Inspired by her mother's recipes, she took to the culinary arts on her own and developed a creative flair by adding unique twists to her mother's dishes. This early love for cooking set the foundation for her career.

Matea also developed an interest in health and fitness, prompting her to pursue a degree of Bachelor of Nutrition Science in Australia. That academic journey expanded her understanding of the intricate relationship between nutrition and culinary arts, fueling her passion even further. After completing her degree, she realized that her passion for cooking and food was something that could be pursued on the water. Her lifelong connection to the ocean influenced her decision to become a yacht chef back in her home country of Croatia.

Her dedication to cooking remains constant and ever-growing. Matea takes great pride in preparing meals with love and quality, ensuring that friends, family, and guests enjoy their dining experience and can appreciate food as much as she does. She especially cherishes the opportunity to share her love for food with others, bringing them together and creating memorable moments with the combined allure of her culinary creations and the ocean's beauty.
