First Mate/Stewardess: Candace Flatley

About the Crew:

Captain Harry reached the BVI at the end of a 10-year voyage through mountains and oceans across the world. He sailed in dinghy and keelboat classes in international competitions and taught and coached sailing from the age of 14. After school he spent 2 winters in the ski industry in British Columbia, first working on the lifts in Lake Louise and then as a ski patroller in Smithers, much further North. He then took 2 years managing a sailing club in Abu Dhabi, before spending time at university where he met Martha and Candace, and developed his side-line in marine photography.
After university he found his way back to sea, working in the charter industry, and delivering a yacht across the Atlantic. Last year he became engaged to Martha, after working alongside her wonderful cooking for 4 years. He has sailed modern and classic yachts through the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Ionian seas, as well as the Arabian Gulf and Phang Nga Bay in Thailand, finally landing in the British Virgin Islands, the most beautiful workplace of all!

Meet Chef Martha, originally from Devon, her 4 favourite things in life are cooking, skiing, and being on or under the water. She's had a diverse career in these activities, from sailing across the Atlantic to skiing in the Alps and leading diving trips with sharks. Her love for cooking began from a young age cooking at home with her family. It then developed further whilst working in the service industry at age 18 and inspired her to pursue a career as a chef. Starting in the mountains and eventually transitioning to yachts, Martha finds that cooking at sea allows her to flourish in a varied and fulfilling environment. She loves to make fresh, vibrant food and has extensive experience catering to dietary requirements in particular vegetarian and vegan foods. She enjoys the ever-changing nature of her job and delights in getting involved in all aspects of the boat, particularly sailing.

Meet Candace, a seasoned stewardess with a passion for water sports and sustainability. Hailing from Manchester, England, Candace completed a degree in Zoology with Conservation which led her to a career in Carbon Reduction. This paired with her years of being a water sport instructor started her on a journey of combining her passions into pursuing a career in yachting. Candace has spent the last year immersed in the British Virgin Islands in which she has prided herself on delivering high levels of service whilst creating unique and unforgettable experiences for guests. Her expertise includes mixology, water sports and guided snorkeling tours made fun and engaging for all ages. Beyond her duties, Candace is a dedicated advocate for sustainability, implementing eco-friendly practices onboard. With her warm demeanour and commitment to excellence, Candace ensures that every guest aboard experiences the magic of the British Virgin Islands with a touch of environmental consciousness.

Collectively, they cannot wait to welcome you aboard Endless Summer III!
