Crew Info

Your skipper, Captain Hein comes from a long line of seafarers. He started sailing at the age of 6 years old. Growing up in the beautiful West Coast of South Africa he spent most of his free time sailing, surfing, diving and fishing. It was only right that Hein embarked on a career within Maritime Industry and he has accumulated many sea miles along the way and visited numerous foreign shores. Hein deeply cares for the environment, sea and marine life and he is always equipped with a safe play and fresh water on board for the tired birds hitching a ride with him on his voyages.

Your Chef/ first mate Madeleine was born in a fishing village on the misty shores of the Namibian Desert. Growing up, she would much prefer to skip school and go sailing with her father. It was her father who taught her to fish and harvest fresh seafood from the ocean. Madeline met Hein during high school and they then embarked on their passion for sailing together. When they got married they chose to buy a yacht rather than a house and raise their three boys on the water. Teaching the boys the ways of the winds and the stars and the tides.

Hein and Madeline love to meet people and they are both looking forward to entertaining you with their delicious food and relaxing drinks. So come and enjoy the highways and the byways of Poseidon and let your crew be part of the memories you build on your life’s journey. Captain Hein and chef Madeline look forward to welcoming you aboard the graceful AQUANIMITY.

Captain Kelsey and chef Simon were outstanding
Captain Kelsey and chef Simon were outstanding. Simon prepared and presented meals that matched a level of fine dining found in top NYC restaurants. Kelsey took charge of the daily sails and knew the best spots to take us, places to snorkel and even a floating taco restaurant for lunch on floating tubes. At our invitation they joined us for dinner, we played table games and videoed our disco our disco evenings. The crew were very much a part of our fun times!

Gorgeous views, great food, and the BEST crew!
