A pure passion for the ocean drives Peter in his quest for adventure.
As the Captain of PRINCESS ILUKA, Peter says “it is essential to have a great crew and I am proud to say we have the best crew our Charter Guests could wish for. We have a core crew of 4 and our regular Chef Peta joins us for charters. We employ a casual Stewardess during charters”
