Crew Asia: The Team.
An intimate, hands-on understanding of the yachting industry and it's specific needs, and time-tested leadership are the fundamental ingredients which continue to make Crew Asia the obvious choice for yacht owners and captains seeking competent, responsible crewing personnel.
Shown below are those individuals responsible for the day-to-day guidance and operational duties of one of the very finest crewing agencies in Southeast Asia.
A graduate of HMS Conway Nautical College, Alan served for 10 years in the Merchant Navy with Ben Line, and worked as Yacht and Ferry Captain on various yachts in Asia and Europe.
As a result of his years as a Yacht captain, Alan became aware that the personality and the character of the Southeast Asian could be an answer to the seemingly never ending quest for quality crew. In 1991, when Alan retired as a captain, his desire to serve yacht captains and the yachts they managed with an equal desire to provide opportunity for young Asians, he started the crewing company.
Today as Chairman of Crew Asia, Alan continues to be it's helmsman.
