LA GATTA

Captain: Angus Grey
With more than 25 years in the yachting industry, the majority served as Captain, I have cruised extensively on yachts of 34m to 71 m LOA, mostly well-known large sailing yachts. I have completed 10 Atlantic crossings and coordinated many major refits and a new build project. I have in-depth experience of Mini and Full ISM, including Security Procedures, with a wealth of experience on chartering, crew management and safety. As a leader I strive to run a professional, happy crew with minimal turnover, to the highest possible standards with a lifelong love of being at sea. Hard working dedicated and loyal, I aim to make every single trip a unique and memorable experience.

Chef: Jo Mckenzie
My love for food and cooking started about 20+ years ago. I have gained a great amount of knowledge in different culinary styles and have worked on yachts, private functions and villas. I am a highly creative and versatile chef. As an artist, food is another way to show my passion and creativity. Circumnavigating the globe has been an adventure with remote provisioning experiences that has pushed me to create incredible dishes. I like to share my experiences and knowledge through food, and I am always looking to encourage guests to have fun and try new things.

Deckhand: Piotr Dyka
I have sailed all over the world, and I cannot stop! If I am not sailing then I can be found climbing the highest peaks of the world, to date I have reached the highest peak of North Africa (4167 m.), and Mount Kazbek (5033 m.) in Georgia. Through my love and passion for travelling I have learned that it should be shared, and I am here to ensure that you have an adventurous and relaxing vacation!

Stewardess: Aleksandra Marcinkowska
Life on the water has been my passion since I was a child, learning to sail as a young girl opened my eyes to a world full of adventures. For the past two years I have worked 100+ meter sailing vessels, sailing through the Baltic Sea, and venturing through the Panama Canal. In Panama I found my passion for climbing, reaching the highest peak of Panama Volcan de Chiriqui (3475 m.) Taking great care of guests and the vessel to ensure a fantastic vacation is a passion of mine.
