MARMOT Crew Profile

Taking the helm of Marmot for the 2011/2012 season:

RONALD and ANYA PAXTON

Ronald and Anya hail from George, South Africa where they met and married in 2008. After being introduced to the BVI's and the charter industry by Ronald's brother, they packed up everything and headed over to Tortola. The years have passed swiftly and skills refined and now a new adventure begins onboard Marmot

Ronald grew up in George where he started sailing when he was 8. Moving up the various fleets, racing quickly became his main focus. In 1997 , at age 15, he was selected as part of the South African team to compete in the GP14 worlds held in Ireland. Later he moved onto lasers where he won the Laser youth Nationals in 1998. Ronald is a certified RYA Yachtmaster with many miles behind the helm. Ronald loves to dive and is a PADI Divemaster. He has always yearned for a life on the water, and as the captain of this yacht, his dream is fulfilled. Ronald is a delightful host and understands the importance of good service. He looks forwards to meeting new people and sharing his joy of the sea with you.

Anya  comes from  Johannesburg, South Africa and lived a real city life. Moving to George and meeting Ronald put a real twist on her life. Living in George opened up a whole new world of adventure on the water which included learning to dive and sail. Anya is now a PADI advanced diver and more than comfortable in handling a boat. Anya started cooking at a young age and has developed into a fine Chef. Always on the lookout for something new and interesting, her meals are guaranteed to get your mouth watering and begging for more!

MARMOT Testimonials

Thank you again for a fantastic week aboard Marmot. I will complete the evaluation form but also wanted to touch base with you directly. All members of the Walker and Milano families had an outstanding time. You and Anya couldn’t have been any more accommodating and patient with our motley crew. The food and the activities were amazing and we now have another set of lifetime memories from being on your boat!

 

I’m sure you’ve noticed but we forgot our Coastal flag. I’ve attached a few of the best pics from the trip – it was hard to choose among all the winners! Thanks again for a magical time. I’m already looking forward to our next visit!

 

Best - Kristen Walker
