CAPRICORN Crew Profile
Captain: Eddie Persichetti

Prioritizing safety, and guest satisfaction, Captain Eddie is a vibrant, highly qualified Captain. Most recently Captain Eddie has obtained his 1600 ton license. Yachting is a lifestyle of professionalism that Captain Eddie has chosen and upholds with the greatest respect. Growing up in a family that was passionate about boating, it’s no wonder Eddie left the communications studio for a life at sea shortly after completing his BA at La Salle University in Philadelphia. Now residing in Massachusetts when not on Capricorn, the sea is close by which is a well-desired preference. Captain Eddie is known to create impromptu songs accompanied with his guitar on occasion. He has a fun loving nature that is know and enjoyed by all. His collection of kites is extensive. Painting the sky with kites is pleasure Captain Eddie enjoys sharing with others. Captain Eddie manages to bring fun into activities both land and sea.

Merry is a crafty and wise lover of life whose charismatic energy carries through the vessel as she fulfills your every need. Merry was born and raised in Boring, Oregon prior to attending the University of Montana where she was a successful collegiate athlete.

Merry loves to explore new cultures, read, write, cook, and lead an active lifestyle. Merry is committed to being a life long learner drinking in all that life has to offer.
First Mate: James McIntire
With extensive skills and qualifications, First Mate Jimmy, brings much to offer the Capricorn Crew. His likeable southern charm and extensive knowledge of fishing make for a stellar combo.

Chef: Rachel Aguiar
Rachel hails from the small town of New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Shortly after completing her marketing degree at the University of Central Florida she made her way down to south Florida where she was introduced to the yachting world. Rachel was inspired by a top of the line chef on her first vessel to pursue a career in which she has never looked back. She spent the next few years working under many great yachts chefs while traveling through regions such as the South Pacific, Mediterranean, East Coast, and the Caribbean. Rachel then came back to Florida to finish her formal culinary training at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, during which time she was able to gain valuable experience in the hotel industry. Guests are welcome at any time in Rachel’s galley and encouraged to stop in for quick lessons or just to say hello. Traveling is top choice for Rachel and when she is not cooking she enjoys outdoor activities such as wakeboarding, snowboarding, hiking, cycling, and yoga.
Engineer: Paul Miller
Paul has ten times the personality of an average engineer. Extremely personable and happy to assist, Paul is a gem. Impeccably maintaining the vessel, while providing an extra helping hand wherever needed, Paul keeps us moving. Paul is a traditional English chap, he likes all things to do with motors and engines. His prized possession is a 2005 Mustang that he loves to take to car exhibitions and show off. He started out in yachting on sailboats and has recently made the transition to motor yachts. Paul admittedly loves fixing things and all things shiny! Taking pride in his position, Paul maintains excellence in Capricorn’s engine room and all mechanics on board. If Paul is not in the Engine room cranking on a crescent wrench, he’s most likely watching Top Gear on BBC to figure out a way to make his Mustang faster or Capricorn smoother.
Chief Stewardess: Katie Fitzpatrick
Katie has been working at sea for nearly 10 years. She started out on large cruise ships working in the casino department, spinning the roulette ball and dealing blackjack. Yachting was her next step toward a career she is passionate about. With an eye for perfection Katie ensures the vessel is kept to high standards with impeccable service. Katie loves to be underwater and is a keen scuba diver. A self-confessed foodie, Katie loves exploring local cuisine and restaurants wherever the vessel may travel. Katie has managed to find a special spot in everyone’s heart and once you meet her for the first time, you’ll understand why. Follow your ear to the music of The Lumineers and Mumford and Sons and you’ll be sure to find her singing along at the top of her voice. Katie recently took on the “Insanity” fitness challenge and hopes to be ripped for the summer!
