What inspired you to become a captain?
I grew up in New Zealand and there I started sailing as a young boy. It became my hobby, and I spent every spare hour on the water.
While backpacking in Europe, I discovered the yachting community. It was a lightbulb moment - I realised then that I could make my greatest passion into my career.
What is special about KOKOMO?
KOKOMO is one of a kind, there is nothing quite like her. She is a stunning high-performance sailing yacht with all the luxury of a motor yacht.
She has a foredeck jacuzzi, which is rare on a sailing yacht, and a shady open-air dining area. Below decks the light, bright climate-controlled lounge is a fantastic living space.
What do you love about her?
For me, it is definitely the sailing. The feeling you get when KOKOMO is under sail is incomparable. Only then can you really appreciate the design and technology that has created such an outstanding vessel.
