SIETE MARES Carta per Yacht

Sarai's journey has taken her from the picturesque coastlines of Italy, Germany, and Israel to the serene decks of luxury yachts. Raised with a deep connection to the sea as the daughter of a skipper, she has always been passionate about exploring the beauty of the outdoors. Her love for the ocean led her to competitive windsurfing and scuba diving, capturing the wonders of nature through her lens with photography.

With a background steeped in Mediterranean and Italian cuisines, Sarai initially brought her talents to the galley, crafting meals that brought people together around the dining table. Her experiences in hospitality and her service as a Commanding Officer have instilled in her a profound appreciation for human connection and companionship.

After completing two successful seasons in the Caribbean offering luxury charter experiences, Sarai now brings her passion for the outdoors and her dedication to creating memorable experiences to her role as a yoga instructor and vacation curator. She delights in sharing the activities she loves with her guests, from tranquil yoga sessions to immersive adventures that showcase the natural beauty of their surroundings. Passionate about free diving, Sarai also enjoys introducing guests to the serene and awe-inspiring world beneath the waves. She is committed to crafting the ultimate vacation experience, fostering connections, and creating lasting memories for everyone on board.

Tiago was born in Lisbon and grew up in Peniche, a surf town on Portugal’s west coast. From a young age he was drawn to the water—sailing optimists and 420s, surfing, and swimming whenever he could. In his twenties, he worked as a surf instructor at Baleal Surfcamp, teaching both kids and adults from all over Europe how to catch their first wave.

He later studied at the Nautical University in Lisbon, earning a degree in Nautical Sciences before joining the Norwegian merchant navy as a deck officer. His career took him across the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic aboard chemical tankers, seismic vessels, and ROV ships. In 2019, Tiago returned to Europe and began working charters in Greece and Croatia, and it also brought him to Tahiti and the Caribbean.
He loves that chartering allowed him to bring together many of his passions—instructing, navigating, exploring, and life on the water—and he’s been doing it ever since.

Having spent most of his life at sea, Tiago is a confident and experienced captain who enjoys sharing his knowledge and showing others the beauty of life on the ocean.
Calm, capable, and deeply experienced, Tiago makes every guest feel safe, relaxed, and well taken care of.
