Captain Shane spent his childhood in Hout Bay and started sailing when he was 12 years old, building experience in the waters across Cape Peninsula. Before getting his captain’s license, Shane studied advertising, photography and cocktail mixology. He worked for many years as a water sports instructor by day and a DJ by night. In 2012, he completed his RYA Yachtmaster’s, allowing him to enter into the charter industry in 2013 with the ideal combination of skills, and he has been working as a charter yacht captain for the past 7 years. Diving has found a huge place in Shane’s heart thanks to the vastly populated Caribbean waters that exhibit some of “Nature’s Little Secrets”. His zealous enthusiasm for experiencing sea life from a diver’s perspective would have him living there, if not for the small problem of there being a limited oxygen supply underwater. Shane is always keen to show his guests the best of everything,
above and below the waterline. He has the sort of easy-going personality that makes everyone feel comfortable and his boundless animation is endlessly entertaining.

First Mate and Stewardess Anne is originally from the Netherlands and she spent a few years in the English countryside as a child. At the age of 5, she moved to Cape Town, South Africa, but the wider world kept calling to her, so, when she was 18, she packed her bags and moved to the busy metropolis of London for a year and worked in one of the most popular hostels in the city. After studying marketing back in South Africa, she worked at the Hilton Hotel in Cape Town. When presented with an opportunity to work on the water, her passion for being close to the ocean naturally directed her to develop a love for sailing and she used her administrative and hospitality skills to become the Sole Chef/Stew aboard one of Cape Town’s luxury motor yachts. Since then, she has dabbled in every role aboard a luxury yacht and is proficient in all tasks that come her way. Anne’s sparkling personality, kind and gentle manners and witty banter make her a delight to engage with. She is devoted to animals of all shapes and sizes, especially turtles, and she always knows where to look when they peek their little heads above the water.
Shane and Anne are a fun and seasoned married couple who have a knack of making guests feel relaxed and at ease on board. They share a love and passion for sailing on the water and they also share the exact same birthday! Born hemispheres apart, they met in South Africa in 2010, and in 2013, they sailed together over 6000 miles from Cape Town to begin a new chapter in the Caribbean. There, they began a successful 5-year partnership as one of the BVI’s most loved charter crew. Their love for travel has opened doors for them to charter in some of the most sought-after locations across the globe, including the Mediterranean, the Bahamas and many of the Leeward and Windward Caribbean islands. In 2017, the dynamic duo were joined by Shane’s step-sister, Erin, who worked with them as the chef, thus forming the formidable team that operates on board Seahome today.
