Crew Profile
Sean is from Hermanus, South Africa. He began his yachting career back in 2012 where he sailed a 44ft catamaran for 2 months from Cape Town to Fort Lauderdale. Sean has crewed on various private and charter yachts ranging from 80ft -200ft. Sean has had lots of experience cruising all over, some of these places have included, Bahamas, South Pacific, Alaska, Caribbean and the East and West Coast USA.
Sean takes pride in his work always willing to work together with his amazing crew. He takes the safety of the vessel and his crew and guests very seriously whilst ensuring the guests are having the best trip possible and all their needs are met and exceeded. You can always expect to have an amazing experience and make many wonderful memories whilst onboard Memento Vivere with Sean.
In his free time Sean is chasing world class majestic yellow fin tuna off cape town, diving, flying helicopters, cycling and overlanding with his 4x4 vehicle
First Officer Marthinus Van Der Berg
Meet Marnus, MV’s First Mate - part maritime expert and part morale booster. Hailing from Senekal, South Africa, he swapped the bushveld for the open ocean in 2020, thanks to a captain from his hometown who wisely saw his potential (or just needed a really good deckhand). But don’t let the polished uniform fool you—before yachting, he was shaping young minds as an English teacher in South Korea and Vietnam, and as an au pair in Texas (because even cowboys need life lessons).
Engineer Nicholas Last (rotational)
Hailing from South Africa, Josh brings 8 years of maritime expertise, stemming from a family legacy of electricians and engineers. A professional problem solver, he ensures smooth sailing for all onboard. Beyond his technical prowess, Josh is an avid fisherman, kiteboarder, and surfer, with experience captaining vessels for deep-sea fishing in Mozambique. With 4 years in the Mediterranean and another 4 in the States, Bahamas, and the Caribbean, he guarantees a safe and unforgettable voyage for all guests.
Engineer James Caddy (rotational)
James was born in Columbus, Ohio and went to college at Texas A&M, Galveston studying marine science. Before yachting James built, designed and maintained large high-end residential and commercial aquariums, including some from the hit animal planet show “Tanked”. James has over 6 years experience on charter boats and takes pride in maintaining systems onboard to provide a more enjoyable charter experience. When he’s not stripping down engine rooms, he’s waiting with a bobber in the water for his next catch! But it doesn’t end there, James brings excitement to his fishing experience as he enjoys Fly Fishing in particular. I guess you could call him a pro! His hobbies don’t only end in the water, but also on the soccer field where he enjoys a good game of FIFA with his friends!
Chief Stewardess Vicky Feofilaktova
Vicky was born in Russia (as that may frighten some of you, I can assure you that she is the bubbliest Russian of them all). She has always worked extremely hard to reach her goals. After her graduation at Civil aviation college in 2016, she wanted to become a flight attendant but soon discovered the yachting industry and immediately knew that would be a better fit for her, and since has brought the highest level of service to the interior team. Expertly organized, Vicky works well under pressure and truly enjoys a good challenge. One of Vicky’s favorite parts of charter trips are themed parties, always excited to show off her creative side with superb table décor and seeing guests creating lasting memories onboard. She keeps a close knit team with her loud and infectious laugh, so bring ear plugs. Vicky has found her niche in the yachting industry, anticipating guests needs with ease while performing her duties with a perpetual smile and a passion for efficient service.
Second Stewardess Jana Rautenbach
Originally from South Africa’s stunning east coast, Jana has always had a deep connection to nature and a thirst for adventure. At just 16, she embarked on a life-changing leadership expedition to Nepal, where she trekked the legendary path to Everest Base Camp. That journey sparked her love for travel, and she hasn’t stopped exploring since.
In 2021, Jana turned her wanderlust into a career when she joined the yachting world as a stewardess. With a warm, can-do attitude and a passion for creating unforgettable guest experiences, she quickly found her stride on board. Jana thrives in the dynamic pace of life at sea, ensuring every detail is taken care of with professionalism and a personal touch.
When she’s not delivering five-star service, you’ll find her hiking mountain trails, staying active with fitness and water sports, or soaking up the saltwater life she loves so much. Jana brings positivity, energy, and a spirit of adventure to every voyage—and she’s always ready to make your time on board as memorable as possible.
Deckhand Jamey Fourie
NHailing from the stunning coastline of South Africa, Jamey combines a natural love for the ocean with a calm, professional approach. With one year of hands-on experience in the yachting industry and a background as a certified dive instructor, Jamey plays a key role in ensuring both the vessel and guests are in great hands.
Known for being friendly, caring, and highly safety-oriented, Jamey thrives in guest-facing roles and is always ready to assist with water activities, tender operations, and deck duties. His calm presence and passion for the ocean helps to create a welcoming atmosphere onboard, whether guests are diving beneath the waves or relaxing above them.
With a strong work ethic and a genuine love for life at sea, Jamey is a valued part of any crew—dedicated to delivering memorable and secure charter experiences.
Chef Gordon Logan
Gordon was born in Johannesburg, where his love for food started the way most South Africans’ do—around a fire, armed with wood, charcoal, and an unshakable dedication to the sacred art of the “Braai.”.
With over 12 years of professional experience, Gordon has cooked everywhere - from Michelin-starred restaurants to luxury yachts, always striving for excellence and never settling for “just good enough” and making sure no plate leaves his galley without a little love and a lot of flavor.
His love for food runs deep rooted in his family traditions of fly-fishing and foraging in the Drakensberg mountains.
Now working as a yacht chef, he’s taken his skill to the high seas, proving that gourmet food and ocean views are the perfect pairing.
For Gordon, cooking isn’t just a job - its a passion, a calling, and, lets be honest, the best excuse to play with fire (safely, of course).

I mean to be honest we wish we were still on the yacht! The crew members were all top notch!! Vicky was phenomenal! Literally a gem! Sean was an amazing captain and so knowledgeable and helpful! Jana kept our rooms so clean and was like a little elf on the boat. MJ, Jamie, and Nick were always so helpful with all the water sports and getting us drinks, and just at our service non stop! The chef was soooo amazing also! We've never eaten so good in our life!! We will definitely be booking again!!
***May 25 - June 2, 2021***
Dear Jon, Xan, Pete, Bo, Lucie, Niel, Kat and Thor the crew,
It is impossible to capture the beautiful colors of the Exumas and the water, and also impossible to describe in words our thanks for such an incredible week with you. We had an amazing time – every single day! Your attention to detail in every way, and your strong work ethic made our time on the boat so enjoyable. Chef Lucie, your bright smile and amazing food were some of the highlights of our day!
My husband and I so enjoyed being together and made some of the best memories of our lives – and all of you were a part of it. We have made some forever friends! Thank you!
***July 2021***
We wanted to thank you for the most special week onboard NO BAD IDEAS. We were blessed with good weather and exemplary service by the entire crew. The boat is a showstopper.
Your leadership and professionalism certainly reverberates in all departments of the vessel. The team seemed to work very well together, creating a great guest atmosphere.
Pete, Thor, and Neil were superb, balancing safety and sporting fun in all activities. Kat was also great in the water. The interior staff, led by Chief Stewardess Xan, were expeditious in their service and painstaking attention to detail. Her daily meetings with us about service and menu planning were great to allow for a personal but flexible experience. Bo and Kat were so attentive and personable. My kids are still raving about the meals...especially the sushi! Kuddos to Chef Olga, who is not only talented but welcoming in her kitchen.
***December 2021***
Dear No Bad Ideas Crew,
To say we had a great time would be an understatement. Thank you beyond for your hard work and kindness. We will truly miss you all. Until we meet again...xo!
***December 29 - January 5, 2022***
Guest Feedback:
Thank you as always for arranging such an amazing trip for us. We absolutely loved the boat and the crew were some of the best crew that we have had on our charters over the years. We definitely plan to charter NO BAD IDEAS again. We appreciate all that you do for us.
Broker Testimonial:
Dear Owners of NO BAD IDEAS
I have just personally finished a great trip onboard NO BAD IDEAS where I had one of my favorite clients onboard. Where we were only onboard for a few days, I wanted to share with you that everything was executed seamlessly. Your professional crew are amazing and the thing that impressed me most was that your key crew members shared with me that they want to retire with you as the owner. Besides the crew, the refit that you completed has to be my #1 refit in the 40 mtr size range. Very smart choices from the relocation of the hot tub, to installing the big table forward on the sundeck. Very smart!!!
Needless to say, we will be chartering NO BAD IDEAS later this year.
One of the most difficult parts of my job is keeping up with crew changes. Many crew members are continuously seeking the next bigger boat or bigger pay check, so I commended them on wanting to stay loyal. Great job on your part for selecting a great team. Thank you for being such a good owner! I look forward to sending more business your way.
***April 16-23, 2022***
Well we are on our way home from what was the most memorable and fun week ever! I cannot begin to thank you for steering us in the direction of NO BAD IDEAS! Truly they live up to their name.There are NO BAD IDEAS on that boat and NO was never an answer. I’m not quite sure where to begin, the boat was gorgeous, meticulous and the interiors are beautiful! The food by Chef Warren was AMAZING, he is truly a magician. We all want a Chef Warren at home! The activities that the crew planned for us were so much fun and something for everyone. They were up for new ideas and always did everything with a smile.
What I want to express to you the most, is just how fabulous this crew really is! We felt like family when we left. In fact my mother in law began to cry and the girls were crying as well. This crew is absolutely STELLAR! Each and everyone one of them are fantastic individuals, hard working, always smiling and FUN! We had so much darn fun with them. We have been on charters before and we have never seen a crew like this. They are so close, work so well together and you can really see just how much they love their jobs. They have something really special there!
You will definitely be hearing from us again, as we told them we WILL BE BACK! I'm wondering if it would be possible for you to share our experience with the boat owner, he is coming on board this coming week. I know he knows what he has in this crew, but it is always nice to hear from someone else.

Guest One:
Thank you for making our vacation so unforgettable. Your staff went above and beyond. We are all so grateful. Until we see you again, have a wonderful transition to your new yacht!
Guest Two:
I think a big part of why it is so hard to say goodbye is we had the pleasure of being with authentic people. In a world/society filled with all sorts of negativity, it meant so much to hang with you guys and gals. You’ve all truly inspired me.
Guest Three:
Thank you all for making this a trip of a lifetime for us. You’re all the sweetest group and it’s your enthusiasm and caring ways and patience that made this experience extra special. Love you all!
Guest Four:
This has been the best vacation in my life. I hope this is a see you later, not a goodbye. You guys are the best crew, I hope I see you guys soon.

Thank you, thank you!
***August 19-26, 2023***
We arrived back home from our trip yesterday afternoon. It was literally the best trip we have ever taken and we travel a lot! Thank you for all of your help with everything!! The boat, the toys, the food, and the location were unbelievable, but the crew is what we will remember the most! The captain and every single member of the crew were over the top amazing!! They did an impeccable job from start to finish and they really went way above and beyond anyone’s expectations for the trip!! It was the best 40th birthday celebration we could have ever hoped for and we left with wonderful memories that will last us a lifetime!!
