CAPTAIN: Simon Pocock

Your captain, Simon Pocock, is a professional and enthusiastic captain. He has a deep passion for sailing and all things in the ocean. He has been a charter captain for the past 3 years and has run numerous charters in the BVI, Caribbean and the Mediterranean. Simon has also sailed across the Atlantic and accumulated +15000 nautical miles.

CHEF: Amber Rose

Amber grew up in Cape Town but has since been a traveler who has lived and worked on 4 different continents. Her love for food came from a very young age when she grew up sitting on the kitchen counter watching her father cook incredible meals inspired from all over the world. This developed her pallet widely and conjured a great passion for food! However, prior to completely committing to being a chef, she first did a degree in business, specializing in entrepreneurship and then a 200-hour Internationally recognized yoga course. It was while living and teaching yoga in Thailand that she finally fell into her role as chef while at a Wellness retreat. From there the journey began and she sought out professional training in addition to her already strong base of ability. She is now in her happiest part of her life and career, chef on luxury catamarans for the past 4 years. A place to truly commit to the beauty of culinary experience, all while on a wonderful sailing adventure!

Stew/Deckhand: Anton Van Geffen

Our stew/deckhand hailing from South Africa is new to the industry but determined to making a positive lasting impression on his team and guests. Anton has worked this past summer on several yachts ranging from 60' to 150' in size doing a variety of tasks making him a jack of all trades and a perfect complement to our team. He brings a lot of hospitality experience from silver service wedding venue support to bartending and waiting tables and will be certain to keep Moon Dragon looking its very best.

Anton is also a very experienced fisherman and would love to help guests set up a line and catch something exciting during the trip. He is very technology proficient and loves to fly drones and take and edit images so I'm sure he would love to get some great shots of our guests living their best lives which should be pretty easy on the fabulous Moon Dragon.
