About Captain André 

Captain André started sailing optimists when he was 7 years old in the Atlantic Ocean. Coming from a family of sailors, the passion for sailing is in his blood. He has done a lot of racing in high-performance vessels.
During this journey, he also kept working on another passion of his: Photography and Cinematography. So it didn’t take long until he joined these two skills and set a goal to be part of the Ocean Race (formerly known as the Volvo Ocean Race). He also worked for the biggest sailing YouTube channel in the world: Sailing La Vagabonde. With 4 Atlantic Ocean crossings completed, he has a goal of crossing the Atlantic Ocean solo on a 21 ft. boat racing the mini transat. André holds the Portuguese ocean skipper license, IYT/MCA 200t and STCW. He has a true passion for the ocean and everything related to it. 

About Chef Fifi 

Chef Fifi grew up in Portugal, always near the water and sun. She took her day skipper license while studying in college – she has a degree in Cell and Molecular Biology and a Master's degree in Data Science. When the opportunity to do charters together arose, she thought it was a perfect idea as she loves cooking, hosting, and being on the water! So, once she finished her studies, she jumped right into this adventure. 
She has since sailed in the BVIs, Sint Maarten and Croatia, cooking local specialties from each place and always loving to host with a big smile on her face.
She constantly seeks to perfect her cooking skills, including taking several cooking courses in the UK (Ashburton Cookery School and The Avenue Cookery School), but her biggest inspiration is always the guests preferences, to whom she caters to deliver the perfect culinary experience.
