Adrian Stanley
Born in Cape Town, South Africa, Adrian grew up surrounded by the ocean. Whether it was racing Hobbes and wakeboarding on lakes, free diving in the sea, or fly fishing on mountain streams, Adrian spent every opportunity on or in the water. He quickly found his passion for sailing and began honing his craft. It was no surprise when he decided to forgo the traditional route of university and instead pursue his RYA Yacht Master.
After a year in the super yacht industry, Adrian longed for a more purist approach to life on the water and began captaining catamarans in the Mediterranean for large flotilla companies. Adrian quickly worked his way up the ranks, becoming Route Manager where he was responsible for the organization and coordination of up to 80 sailing vessels, over 800 guests and 160 staff per week. Having reached his potential, Adrian was ready for a new challenge and set his sights on the Caribbean. The crystal-clear waters and incredible marine life had Adrian hooked the minute he stepped foot in the Virgin Islands.
With more than 9 years of industry experience and over 30 000 nautical miles under his belt, Adrian is always eager to pass on his knowledge to those on board with him. Whether you want to throw a dollar in at Soggy or sit on the silent beaches of Guana, Adrian prides himself on being able to curate the perfect charter for you and your guests both on and under the sea.
