Captain Frik
He grew up in a farming community, and always had a passion for learning and exploring.
Later in life, he pursued a Master of Science degree with three majors: Computers, Management, and Information Systems. He also obtained a PhD in the same field. At 27, he started his own company for process automation and made it a success. On top of that, he is a storyteller by heart, can keep guests entertained for hours, and in his free time he dabbles in writing novels and software apps for boats.
But life is not all about work. He loves outdoor adventures and has tried many thrilling activities. He is an experienced Dive master and rescue diver. Throw in his enjoyment of paragliding, ultra-light airplanes, military jets, aerobatics, and old WW2 planes for good measure. Sleeping under the stars in a flimsy tent with elephants and lions walking past was nothing strange to this explorer. This seasoned traveler has visited 106 countries, of which 21 on their Leopard 45 catamaran called Sisu.
They have a YouTube Sailing channel, which expanded their skills into movie making and video editing. They have attracted more than 16,000 subscribers who follow their adventures.
Chef Petro
Meet Petro, a spirited individual who has turned the ordinary into extraordinary, transforming an average childhood into a tale of daring exploits and entrepreneurial triumphs.
The journey began in the corporate world, where she quickly ascended to managerial heights. However, the call of independence was too strong to resist, leading to the establishment of two highly successful Insurance Brokerage companies. But life wasn’t just about work for this adventurer. The love for 4X4 Safaris brought her face- to-face with nature’s wonders, from navigating crocodile-infested waters to sneaky hyenas interrupting campfire serenades.
Switching gears, she found solace underwater, indulging in the adrenaline rush of scuba diving. The sky also beckoned, and Petro answered. From commercial Boeings to aerobatic Extra 300s, the adventures soared to new heights. Lomcevak maneuvers tested her stomach’s loyalty, making breakfast reconsider its life choices. Gyrocopters over antelope herds, night maneuvers in a Military Oryx helicopter, and barrel rolls in a Boeing-Stearman—all added layers to an already colorful life.
Petro set sail into the unknown and despite initially knowing nothing about sailing, she now boasts 36,000 nautical miles of experience. Throughout adulthood, Petro balanced the thrill of adventure with a love for hosting and cooking. Culinary explorations began early, evolving into a global affair through sailing. Aboard the vessel, she earned titles like “Hostess with the Mostess” and “The Great Entertainer”.
