Nationality: South African
Description:
Des was born and raised in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, the country’s headquarters for shipping located on the South Coast. His father was a shipping and ports enthusiast, and on the weekends, Des would accompany him to the harbors to watch the commercial vessels load and offload their cargo. This is where his love for boats and the sea began. His family moved away from the coast to Johannesburg as he started high school, and his mom bribed him to get higher grades in his graduating year by sending him to a scuba diving class. After a career in graphic design and advertising, he left the world of offices, cubicles and traffic for a more relaxed life in Southern Thailand. He sailed lasers and mirrors as a kid on lakes growing up, but only started boating after leaving his career in graphic design in 2002. He was drawn to the yachting industry by the opportunity to travel and meet interesting people, and has worked on private yachts, charter vessels, dive liveaboards and sailing catamarans since 2000. His two favorite destinations are Chamonix Vineyard and Resort in South Africa, and the Exumas in the Bahamas. In his spare time, you’ll find Des free diving and scuba diving. Captain Des has been cruising the Bahamas for almost 20yrs and looks forward to showing you around his back yard, the beautiful Exuma cays! You may recognize this top notch Captain, as he previously was a Captain on both 98´ EMRYS and 94´ QUINTESSA.

Des, James, Alex, and Jason,
Our time with you on Insieme has been absolutely incredible. We´ve all noted the beauty of the boat and the wonderful amenities it offers, but the trip wouldn´t have been nearly as special without the four of you. Jason, your meals have been spectacular - so far ahead of any hope we had. James, you were so thoughtful and quick to ensure fun and comfort, capturing each memory for us so that we could really enjoy each moment of the trip. It was such a comfort to have you guiding us along the way. Alex, you are a gift! You anticipated every possible want or need and we loved getting to know you these last few days. Our trip wouldn´t be the same without you! Des, from our first call, the care and attention to detail was evident. You ensured that this trip would be the one for the record books - the perfect way for us to celebrate milestone birthdays! Thank you for sharing your ´backyard´ with us - there isn´t a better way to explore the Exumas! We can´t wait to be back on the Insieme with you again soon!
March 30 – April 6, 2024
Dear Insieme Crew,
There are no words to thank you enough for what we can honestly say was the best family vacation we have had. Your kindness, hospitality, and energy will be deeply missed and we are so lucky to have discovered the beautiful Bahamas through your eyes. Alex, you are a true artist and we adored your beautiful cocktails and table settings. Jason, thank you for the spectacular meals and for fattening us all up, real good. James, your good vibes and cinematography skills are stellar and you will make a 10/10 captain someday. Des, thank you for being such an educational guide, patient captain, and for sharing your cheeky sense of humor. A true dream team!
Dear James and Alex,
Thank you so much for everything. Your chill and easygoing nature and desire for us to have fun always put a smile on my face. Marielle and I were so grateful for the tips and stories you gave about your travels in Thailand and the Philippines, we hope to have as much fun as you did!
James, thank you for the lovely video to remember this trip forever. Your constant energy and push for us to have fun was always a blessing.
Alex, your enthusiasm and creativity and willingness to try something new was amazing and I really appreciated it. You took such good care of us and we are really grateful. I felt as if I was in the comfort of my own home (or better!) under your care.
Keep doing what you do, never do Below Deck, and stay true to yourselves. I wish you both all the best and many more adventures together.

Dear Jason,
Thank you so much for always keeping us happy and full and for your easy-going and laid-back attitude. I never went to sleep hungry and always wished I wasn´t so full so I could taste another bite of your delicious cooking and baking. Thank you especially for being gracious enough to lend us your trusty skimboard. Noah and I thoroughly enjoyed using it and we were very grateful you came to us in our time of need to help Noah overcome the sadness of not having his own.
I wish you and your family all the best and hope you continue to make the most of the precious time you have together.
---
Des,
Thank you for showing all of us your second home and teaching us all the history and intricacies of the Bahamas. It was a joy learning and being guided by you. I always felt safe and cared for under your supervision and I will always cherish the memories from this trip. I wish you and Megan (Meghan) all the best.
P.S. Your kind hearted nature and respectfulness and easy-going attitude always made me feel at home. I truly enjoyed all the conversations and was very thankful for all the stories and wisdom you had to offer.
March 23-28, 2024
We traveled from California to celebrate my husband´s 50th birthday on Insieme and we can truly say it was an experience of a lifetime. From the moment we stepped onto the deck, we were greeted by the warm hospitality of the exceptional crew. They made us feel like royalty. Whether it was indulging in gourmet meals prepared by the talented chef (Jason), embarking on exciting excursions to explore around the island, relaxing on deck with delicious drinks (thanks to Alex), every moment aboard was a testament to the crew´s dedication to excellence. James went above and beyond to give our kids the most incredible time spending time with them playing with every water toy imaginable. They will never forget this trip and non of it would come together so beautifully without our Captain Dez. He was so kind and knowledgeable and a truly professional leader. Each of the crew members played a vital role in creating a memorable experience for us and we can not thank you enough.
And to top it off the video at the end was the icing on the cake which make me cry! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The crew is truly what took our trip to the next level.
BTW Alex - we LOVED all your dinner themes and decorations. You set the mood perfectly each night.
Jan 3- 7, 2024
We had a very nice time. The entire crew was very professional and pleasant. Thanks to Captain Des, Jason, Alex, and James. We enjoyed everything. Good luck guys.
