Yacht privato CRYSTAL PARROT

Roger has been boating since he was a small boy, barely able to see over the wheel of his father’s Chris Craft launch, although he could expertly hold her steady. His passion for the ocean went from sports to science when he pursued a degree in Biology with an Aquaculture Major at Oregon State University. He went on to work for the state of Oregon doing bioassays of marine estuaries and offshore kelp beds, including 13 years of mollusk culture on the Pacific shore in Winchester Bay, Oregon.

Roger enjoyed his research in the depths and estuaries of the Pacific Ocean, but today his favorite destinations are the U.S. Eastern Shore and the Bahamas. He says, “the people are very relaxed and the Bahamian waters are so clear.” Roger is an avid diver with a rescue diver rating. He happily shares his favorite reefs and wrecks with fellow dive enthusiasts, and knows the best snorkel spots as well.

Roger made the choice to pursue a career as a yacht captain because he loves to be out on the water and he enjoys sharing his passion with others. Whatever activities guests prefer; Roger has the expertise to guide them. He says, “I am most happy when I have shown my guests a good time and I can see that they are enjoying themselves.”
