Crew Profile
| Captain Name: | Mickey Allison |
| Nationality : | American |
| Number of Crew: | 2 |
Meet the crew for 2023/2024 season!! The captains will be running a split season of 6 months each as noted below.
Captain Mickey: May 1 - Nov 1
Mickey comes from a family of professional ocean racers, with his father competing in multiple around the world races. Starting from before he could walk, he grew up sailing in the vast chain of islands in the Pacific Northwest on the ritual summer family sailing adventures. He became a professional skipper in Seattle at just 22, and has continued to captain and race boats in different parts of the world ever since. Mickey’s passion for the sea and the mountains has led him to have a vast understanding of the natural world and how to operate within it safely. That said, he also has a very friendly and easygoing personality and you will find him very easy to talk to.
Captain Sofia: Nov 1 - May 1
Sofia is an enthusiastic sea lover, who has a strong connection with nature. She’s an adventurer and loves an active lifestyle, meeting new people, and sharing memories with them at sea. Sofia has a strong background in sport, having competed at elite level in international rowing. She loves to stay active and is incredibly passionate about sailing and swimming in the sea - even better if with some wildlife around! Having worked in a range of industries, from hospitality to investment management, Sofia likes growing in knowledge and experiences wherever she goes and enjoying life to the fullest. Somewhat a madcap when it comes to new challenges and adventures, Sofia has cycled across several countries, run up mountains and rowed across the Atlantic Ocean.
Chef Marisa:
Marisa is a well traveled British chef. She was raised in the UK, spending her weekends on the waters of the Welsh coast. She is well traveled throughout Europe and Asia, and has a new found love for Central America.
Marisas passions are cooking, exploring nature, being in/by/on the water, live music and events, and good health.
Marisa found herself in the Virgin Islands after finding her love for deep sea fishing and the endless possibilities the ocean can offer.
She has great positive energy, with a love for life itself and making the most of it.
