Growing up on the west coast of Sweden, being close to the ocean has always felt natural for me. I’m coming from a background in real estate and sales, where you spent most of the days inside an office. So when the opportunity of working onboard a yacht and traveling the world opened up, I was quick to say yes. Living and working on a yacht is amazing, you get to work with people from across the world, meet amazing guests that all tell their stories, and explore the waters around you. How lucky are we to be spending the summers cruising the beautiful Sydney harbour and heading up to enjoy the winter up in the sunny Whitsundays. When not on the yacht, you’ll find me in the snowy mountains skiing, sipping drinks along the beach or training for a marathon.

Stuart is an extremely experienced and technically skilled crew member. With over 15 years of marine engineering experience in the Royal Australian Navy – where he rose to the rank of Petty Officer – Stuart combines military precision with a deep love of yachting. Whether he’s maintaining superyacht systems to perfection or stepping in as relief captain, Stuart brings calm leadership, unmatched technical knowledge, and a genuine passion for the ocean.
He holds a Diploma of Engineering, MED 1, Master 24m, and Yachtmaster Offshore certifications, making him a powerhouse both below deck and at the helm. From racing in the Sydney to Hobart, to skippering over 40 weeks of charters through the Med and Pacific, Stuart has done it all — and done it well.
