*Meet Captain Craig on board GHOST II: https://vimeo.com/219463506/029f3876a5

Growing up on the East Coast of Australia, Craig's background in the marine industry commenced with Maritime law enforcement and Marine investigations roles thanks to his Police background.
What moved him to the superyacht industry? "Looking after guests instead of goods, and that feeling that guests make your day!".
From there Craig moved into work as a master of trading vessels up and down the east coast of Australia. He fell in love with the Whitsunday region and became master of a 30m superyacht that serviced that region, cruising the multiple islands in the Whitsunday group and both the inner and outer Great Barrier reefs.
Craig's passions - no secret - are all water related. He loves waterskiing, competitive sailing and snorkelling. Craig is fortunate he has travelled up and down the Australian east coast finding hidden jewel locations to escape to.
When relocating GHOST II to the Whitsundays, Craig names a few of his favourite experiences:
- Snorkelling and diving at Blue Pearl Bay, Nara Inlet and Manta Ray Bay
- Anchor in Stonehaven after a beach picnic with the family
Whilst in Sydney Harbour, in Summer, his absolute favourite moments are:
- A kayak adventure in the harbour creeks, discovering stingrays swimming under the transparent structure
- A picnic setup at Store Beach, and then an excursion to Brisbane waters, where kids will love playing around the sand islands
- Anchoring in the Hawksbury River, transferring guests for a long leisurely lunch at the famous Peats Bite (an absolute must!), exploring Refuge and Jerusalem bays for watersports.
