Captain Gareth Schwegman:  Gareth's keen love of the ocean and first class seamanship skills were honed in his native South Africa on family sailing excursions off the coast of Durban and Mozambique.  His father's sailing school which specializes in mega yacht crew training also play a huge role in Gareth's decision to join the yachting industry and obtain his captain's license.  Gareth has crewed and run charter yachts throughout the Caribbean as well as New England and other areas on the US East Coast.

Chef Caroline Cazalet is also from South Africa and was in the catering business prior to becoming a chef aboard charter yachts.  She spent time racing dinghies for several years as well.  She looks forward to providing charter guests with delectable fine gourment meals and will provide each guest with customized food preferences and dining experiences they will remember long after the charter has ended.  Her caring and professional service will make your time aboard PANACHE unique and unforgettable.
