MEET YOUR CREW:
CAPTAIN: Francois Meyer
CHEF: Eden Baker

Life for Francois started out on the sunny east coast of South Africa. Living in Richards Bay with the
ocean on his doorstep and a fishing rod in his hand, it quickly became a way of life.
Soon thereafter his family decided to trade the beach for the "bush" and moved to a small town in
the south-west of Kenya called Magadi where he spent the rest of his childhood growing up in the wilderness.
After school he decided to try his luck as a professional rugby player. Unfortunately an injury ended his
short career and it was time to move on. Thankfully the ocean had never stopped calling and soon he was
back with a passion that only grew.
He gained his experience as a deckhand on Superyachts in the Mediterranean initially, and then as both a chef and a captain on charter Cats in the Caribbean, and Atlantic crossings.
Francois is extremely excited to get back to the Caribbean to meet new people, hearing their stories and creating lifelong memories for guests.

Meet Chef Eden Baker from beautiful South Africa, whose yachting journey embarked in 2020. She effortlessly transitioned from super yachts to sailing catamarans, delighting guests as the sole chef for the past 3 years.
Eden's passion for safety and culinary excellence truly shines. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication to guest satisfaction ensure that each dining experience is not just special but truly extraordinary. In the galley, she crafts meals that are not only delicious and healthy but also visually stunning, adding a unique flair with local ingredients. Beyond her culinary expertise, Chef Eden brings warmth and charm on board, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Inspired by her South African roots, she infuses global flavors into her creations. With 3,5 years in the industry, Eden possesses a keen eye for detail, able to design menus around any dietary requirements or local ingredients available around the charter location. For fun, Chef Eden loves exploring new restaurants, snorkeling, trying out new recipes, getting creative in the kitchen & reading. In the yachting world, Chef Eden Baker stands out, turning every meal into a masterpiece and every bite into a delightful adventure!

Francois and Eden are looking forward to making sure you have a truly unforgettable vacation with them on Esperanza II.

YOUR CREW:<br /> CAPTAIN: Francois Meyer<br /> CHEF: Eden Baker <br /> <br /> Life for Francois started out on the sunny east coast of South Africa. Living in Richards Bay with the<br /> ocean on his doorstep and a fishing rod in his hand, it quickly became a way of life. <br /> Soon thereafter his family decided to trade the beach for the "bush" and moved to a small town in<br /> the south-west of Kenya called Magadi where he spent the rest of his childhood growing up in the wilderness. <br /> After school he decided to try his luck as a professional rugby player. Unfortunately an injury ended his<br /> short career and it was time to move on. Thankfully the ocean had never stopped calling and soon he was<br /> back with a passion that only grew.<br /> He gained his experience as a deckhand on Superyachts in the Mediterranean initially, and then as both a chef and a captain on charter Cats in the Caribbean, and Atlantic crossings.<br /> Francois is extremely excited to get back to the Caribbean to meet new people, hearing their stories and creating lifelong memories for guests.<br /> <br /> Meet Chef Eden Baker from beautiful South Africa, whose yachting journey embarked in 2020. She effortlessly transitioned from super yachts to sailing catamarans, delighting guests as the sole chef for the past 3 years. <br /> Eden's passion for safety and culinary excellence truly shines. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication to guest satisfaction ensure that each dining experience is not just special but truly extraordinary. In the galley, she crafts meals that are not only delicious and healthy but also visually stunning, adding a unique flair with local ingredients. Beyond her culinary expertise, Chef Eden brings warmth and charm on board, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Inspired by her South African roots, she infuses global flavors into her creations. With 3,5 years in the industry, Eden possesses a keen eye for detail, able to design menus around any dietary requirements or local ingredients available around the charter location. For fun, Chef Eden loves exploring new restaurants, snorkeling, trying out new recipes, getting creative in the kitchen & reading. In the yachting world, Chef Eden Baker stands out, turning every meal into a masterpiece and every bite into a delightful adventure! <br /> <br /> <br /> Francois and Eden are looking forward to making sure you have a truly unforgettable vacation with them on Esperanza II. <br /> <br /> ";s:14:"yachtCrewPhoto";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew1Pic";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht6677/6677crew1.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew2Pic";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht6677/6677crew2.jpg";s:13:"yachtCrew3Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew4Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew5Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew6Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew7Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew8Pic";s:0:"";s:13:"yachtCrew9Pic";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew10Pic";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew1Name";s:14:"Francois Meyer";s:14:"yachtCrew2Name";s:10:"Eden Baker";s:14:"yachtCrew3Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew4Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew5Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew6Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew7Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew8Name";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtCrew9Name";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew10Name";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew1Title";s:7:"Captain";s:15:"yachtCrew2Title";s:4:"Chef";s:15:"yachtCrew3Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew4Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew5Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew6Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew7Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew8Title";s:0:"";s:15:"yachtCrew9Title";s:0:"";s:16:"yachtCrew10Title";s:0:"";s:9:"yachtFlag";s:3:"USA";s:13:"yachtHomePort";s:16:"St. Thomas, USVI";s:14:"yachtWBasePort";s:16:"St. Thomas, USVI";s:8:"yachtRig";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtGrossTons";s:0:"";s:12:"yachtAcNight";s:3:"Yes";s:16:"yachtAcSurCharge";s:2:"No";s:9:"yachtTubs";s:1:"0";s:20:"yachtLocationDetails";s:72:"St. Thomas, USVI.

"My brother and I would spend the summer sailing in Newport Harbor, like a modern version of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. My entire family were lifeguards, sailors, scuba divers, pilots, and general Bon Vivants", he said. <br /> <br /> After graduating from the University of Southern California, Stephen traveled down to South Africa, to race and deliver sailboats, where he earned his Yachtmaster Ocean certification. Capt. Stephen has sailed in all of the great oceans of the world and has logged in excess of 40,000 miles offshore, including 2 trans Atlantic and Indian Ocean crossings. <br /> <br /> He holds a USCG 100 ton Master license and is also a PADI Divemaster and a private pilot. In 2017 he purchased his very own 41' sloop in Palma de Mallorca, which he sailed across the Atlantic, through the Caribbean, and up the east coast of the USA. As a result of his extensive travels, Capt. Stephen speaks fluent Spanish and can generally get by in a couple other languages as well. He will keep you entertained with tales of the high seas and even teach you a few sailing knots if you so choose. <br /> <br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Chef and First Mate Celia, who goes by the nickname “CC”, was born and raised most of her life near the ocean in Southern California. It wasn’t until 2015 that CC gave up her corporate career as a Meeting & Event Planner and started traveling the world spending three of those months sailing across the South Pacific on a Lagoon 450. Traveling brought CC to earning her PADI Dive Instructor certification which then led her into the superyacht and luxury liveaboard industry where she worked in a variety of roles - one of them more recently being a chef cooking for 25 guests and crew combined in the Bahamas and Turks & Caicos.<br /> <br /> After nearly 5 years working in the yachting industry, she’s now able to combine her passion for the ocean and focus on her creativity skills preparing modern fare cuisine. When CC is not on charter, you’ll likely find her traversing through mountains and enjoying the culinary delights of the country she’s in or continuing her education working toward her sommelier certification and yoga teacher training.<br /> <br /> We’re pleased to have Celia onboard with her shared passion for the ocean and enthusiasm for food.<br /> </p></div> </div> </div> </div>
