Captain: Will Jameson
Will grew up on the South Coast of England, where his passion for sailing, boats, and the sea has been a lifelong pursuit. His enthusiasm for the water emerged at a young age, and by 16, he had saved enough from his paper round to purchase his first boat, a Dart 18. Around this time, Will began volunteering as a dinghy instructor at a charity-based sailing school, where he took people of all ages and abilities out on the water – including Princess Anne!
After finishing school, Will immediately entered the workforce, starting his own business. However, his love for sailing only deepened. He frequently chartered yachts with friends in the Mediterranean, finding great joy in introducing others to the pleasures of sailing and clear waters. This passion led him to buy his first substantial sailing vessel, “Fay,” a 32-foot catamaran that required a complete refit. Will eagerly took on the challenge of refurbishing Fay himself and soon had her back on the water. He embarked on numerous voyages along the South Coast of the UK, as well as across the English Channel to France and the Channel Islands. With an Atlantic crossing under his belt and a Commercially Endorsed Yachtmaster Offshore certification, Will is an experienced and skilled sailor.
When he’s not on a boat, Will finds plenty of other ways to stay active. He is a qualified kitesurfing instructor – another activity he believes everyone should try. Will enjoys keeping fit and has completed the Devizes to Westminster canoe ultra marathon, always seeking new challenges. He also enjoys wakeboarding, fishing, and has a keen interest in cars.
