NORTHERN STAR 游艇租赁

Capt. Richard Pims also doubles up as an amazing Chef on board Northern Star.

Richard was born in Queens, New York and grew up in New Jersey, not far from the shore. He attended Johnson & Wales University studying Culinary Arts.

As a young child he loved all sports, games and pastimes, especially hockey, golf, hiking, climbing, fishing and sailing. Richard soon became hooked on sailing. From a very young age he would sail with family and friends, and then he regularly sailed with an uncle throughout the rest of his childhood.

Having qualified with a bachelor's degree in Culinary Arts and Related Services at University Richard went on to work as a Chef in some of the finest restaurants in New York and as a result brings a high level of sophistication to all aspects on onboard yacht hospitality, particularly by preparing world class meals onboard for charter guests. Richard says he is very comfortable with silver service dining, due to his culinary background, but he is very adaptable to more casual dining usually enjoyed on board a sailing yacht.

From a Captain's perspective he really enjoys to see guests active and getting involved with sailing during the charter, as well as other adventures by water or on land.

His favourite yachting destination was the San Blas Islands in Panama, which is a group of untouched islands, with indigenous Indians living a traditional lifestyle. It was one of the most amazing places he's ever been, and loves that he can experience these exotic places as a Captain on a charter yacht. His motto became "Don't wait to live your dreams"!

Richard enjoys spending his spare time reading, fishing, live music, tennis, scuba diving and travel. His friends describe him as Driven, Adventurous and Funny. All great characteristics for a Yacht Charter Captain - and Chef!!
