Deckhand
American

Meet Paul, the skilled deckhand aboard Namaste, bringing six months of invaluable experience and a lifelong passion for the seas. Born in the coastal haven of Key West, Florida, Paul's maritime journey is deeply rooted in his upbringing. Paul's connection with the sea began at an early age, sailing the waters of Tampa Bay alongside his mother and brother. His sailing prowess shone through as a child, winning regattas and honing his skills in the art of navigation. Boating became second nature, and by the tender age of 8-9, he was already steering and sailing boats independently. With a father who was a yacht captain, Paul grew up not only driving motor yachts but racing sailboats. His extensive background includes working on renowned vessels such as Serena, All In, Lorax, Northstar, and Package Deal, along with the Farr 40 sailboat, Penndragon. Before yachting, Paul served as a small boat sailing instructor, holding a Level 2 license with US Sailing. Currently working as a deckhand, Paul aspires to follow in his father's footsteps and become an accomplished yacht captain. His favorite cruising grounds include the Bahamas and Abacos, with a special affection for the serene Shroud Cay. Beyond yachting, Paul envisions owning a home, establishing roots, and enjoying the tranquility of Beaufort, South Carolina, surrounded by family. Paul's dedication extends to ensuring every guest has an incredible experience, crafting memories that withstand the test of time. Known for his prowess with children, Paul brings a lifetime of boating expertise to create unforgettable moments for all on board Namaste. When not navigating the vast seas on a yacht, Paul finds solace in Tampa, racing sailboats with friends out of Davis Island Yacht Club. His personal sailboat, a cherished possession, stands as a testament to his enduring love for the art of sailing.
Join Paul on Namaste for an unparalleled seafaring experience, where passion meets professionalism, and every journey is infused with the spirit of adventure.
