Engineer - Daniel Lightley
Daniel was born in a coastal South African town called Knysna. He’s spent his whole life around boats and in the water. Growing up when he wasn’t sailing, canoeing and
fishing, you could find him dismantling the lawn mower to see how it worked. His curiosity for mechanics and his sense of adventure brought him into the yachting industry where he found his passion for engineering. Since then he has pursued his engineering license and has been in charge of
multiple vessels.

Chief Mate - Jack Pierce
Jack is joining us from the north eastern town of Chesterfield in the United Kingdom. Before moving onto boats he worked with his local police force as a Special
Constable. He found his love for life on the ocean after a sailing course int the Isle of Wight and six months after landed his first job as a junior decked in Monaco. Being
in the industry for the past three years, he has made his way over to the USA. He hopes his yachting career will see him progress through the ranks and one day captain his own yacht.

Deckhand - Lehan Herbst
Lehan is from South Africa. He grew up outside the city limits of Bloemfontein. From this he is used to open spaces, nature and having a good time with friends and
family. He graduated and obtained his B. Com Law degree. Also completed additional honours year in Entrepreneurial and Business Management. After graduating last year, he decided to make his way over to North America and get into yachting. He thought it would be the perfect lifestyle for himself as traveling is a passion of his and something he would love to do for years to come. The ocean seems like a perfect fit and he is ready to enjoy challenges and thrive in this fast paced industry.

Chief Stewardess - Sasha Harrison
Sasha was born and raised in Canada. From the small northern town of Smithers buried high in the mountains. She was always outdoors exploring mother nature. At a young age she joined the family business and helped her mother run a restaurant for 4 years. It was here where she found her love for hospitality. Being surrounded by mountains her whole life, she decided to move to Vancouver Island, Canada, where she discovered the ocean. After a few years of enjoying the ocean from the shore, she found a way to bring both her passions together and joined the yachting industry. It is my duty and my pleasure to ensure that you have the utmost enjoyable experience on board Motor Yacht
Kemosabe.
