Languages Spoken: French & English

After various experiences at sea over the years, a transatlantic crossing, charter work in
Australia, sailing in the Mediterranean, and boat maintenance projects — Thomas decided to make it his full-time career and become a professional first mate.

Passionate about sailing and seamanship, Thomas is always learning, but also enjoys
sharing the knowledge he has already acquired. Travel, adventure, discovering new
cultures, and collaborative projects are key motivations for him. He also enjoys exchanging
around music, cinema, and design.

Onboard, he is always keen to go fishing, explore the underwater world, and better
understand the environment he is sailing through — whether through snorkeling, water
sports, hiking, or canyoning.

Attentive, discreet, and friendly, Thomas will happily guide guests during their activities, ensuring their safety, comfort, and enjoyment
throughout the charter.

CHEF: Amandine FONSECA

Languages Spoken : French, English, Basic Spanish

Amandine is a French self-taught chef whose journey into yachting is driven by a genuine, long-standing passion for both the sea and culinary arts. Originally trained as a French literature teacher and working as a sailing instructor during her studies, she chose to leave the traditional path behind in pursuit of a more hands-on, dynamic lifestyle.

She entered the yachting industry as a deck/stew/cook, gaining a solid understanding of life on board before progressively specializing as a chef.

Entirely self-taught, her cuisine reflects curiosity, discipline, and a constant desire to evolve. She has a particular passion for spices, fermentation techniques, and Asian cuisines (especially Japanese) while remaining deeply rooted in Mediterranean influences shaped by her French and Portuguese heritage.

Today, Amandine lives fully through her two greatest passions : the ocean and cooking. Whether in the galley or under sail, she brings energy, adaptability, and a strong work ethic, thriving in fast-paced environments and consistently striving for excellence. She has no intention of returning to teaching, having found her true calling at sea. And when she’s not in the galley, there’s a good chance she’s somewhere behind a kite, chasing the wind with the same passion she brings to her cooking.
