CAPTAIN
Andre van der Linde (Sr)
Hey there! So, picture this – the past 25 years have been an absolute blast in Langebaan, South Africa, aka the Jewel of the West Coast. We've been soaking up life, surrounded by these incredible azure waters that practically scream "adventure playground." Sailing, boating, fishing – you name it, we've done it. And our kids? Well, they've practically grown up with a love for the sea and a knack for sailing.
Now, amidst all those laid-back sailing sessions, a wild idea popped up - why not throw some part-time charters for holidaymakers? And guess what? We've decided to shake things up and trade in our regular gigs for the adventure we've always dreamt of.
So, here we are - qualified, pumped and ready to drive headfirst into the full-time charter scene. Our game plan? Make sure every owner and guest doesn't just have an adventure, but leaves with a grin and a bunch of kick-ass memories. Oh, and with my love for snapping pics, I'm on a mission to capture those special moments for everyone to take home.
And hey, just so you know, we're not exactly newbies at this - we've got a lifetime of boating under our belts, a solid 9 years of sailing like pros, and a cool 3 years of charter experience. Ready for the ride? Because we sure are!!

Hello there! I'm a positive, energetic, and sophisticated wife, wearing the proud badge of a mom to two awesome kids. My passion? Well, it's all about wowing people with delightful South African cuisine, served up in a joyful atmosphere that's simply infectious.
Nature? Oh, that's my sanctuary – my happy place where I find peace and can't help but marvel at the wonders of creation. Now, picture this: our family has been soaking up the good vibes in Langebaan on the West Coast of the Western Cape. It's been our haven, especially with top-notch watersport facilities that allowed us to nurture our kids' love for sailing. Guess what? They're both sailors now, charter captain and chef actually, and it's high time for us to jump on board by swapping our old careers for new full-time adventures and take advantage of the 9 years of sailing experience and 3 years of charter experience we have.
We're on the brink of an exciting journey in the industry, and our goal is crystal clear – to craft charters that leave our future guests beaming with satisfaction. Get ready for a ride with a dash of sophistication and a whole lot of positive energy!
