CAPTAIN Alpay Arslan
Captain Alpay began his career on charter yachts as a chef in 2007. Until then he had been a successful chef at high end restaurants along the Turkish Coast. Once onboard, Alpay developed a keen interest in deck duties and boat handling and changed his career path with his aim to become captain, this he achieved in 2020. Alpay has been serving on Serenity 86 since 2009, both above and below decks, so he really does know this wonderful vessel like the back of his hand. He has great communication skills and sense of humour. He speaks both Turkish and English.
