-STCW Basic Safety Training
-ENG1
-Food Healthy & Safety Level 2
-Massage Therapy
Brandon grew up in South Africa and when school holidays came around, his family would head to the coast where he spent his time on boats and in the ocean. At age 14, he completed his Open Water Diving, from there he followed his love for diving, which led him to not only get certified as a Divemaster in Sodwana Bay, Mozambique, but he ended up staying on as an Employee and Instructor.
He has a passion for fishing, spearfishing and freediving. With an interest in sailing, he joined the charter industry with his brother and he continued to work as a Chef on board in the British Virgin Islands for half a decade before being offered a Base Manager position in Saint Vincent & The Grenadines.
The timing was right for him to pursue his biggest dream of becoming a Captain and he gave up his management position to jump back on board and do what he loves most, exploring the oceans above and below sea level.
Not only is he also a masseuse, but he is also the secret keeper for ‘Brandon´s secret spots’ in the BVI which he loves to take guests to.

Now a formally trained chef from the South African Chefs Academy, Arno specializes in fresh, from-scratch dishes that fuse comfort, creativity, and a hint of South African flair. His guests love his warm hospitality just as much as his home-baked breads and vibrant, locally inspired menus.

Off the clock, you’ll find him road-tripping, fishing, or camping under the stars.

He completed his yachting certification on the South African West Coast at the age of 18 and after working on Superyachts, decided to join the Catamaran industry where he could combine his love for the ocean, watersports and work his way up to become a Captain.
