Nutmeg 's Crew

captain and crew

Alexander and Elinor Marr,

In 2000, I launched my 44ft. St. Francis Catamaran and sailed extensively around South Africa's east and west coast before leaving for Brazil and the West Indies. While in the BVI I worked for Tradewinds Cruise Club as a charter skipper doing week long cruises around the island chain. My wife and I then sailed on through the Bahamas to the U.S.A. where I sold my yacht. During 2005-2007 I was the skipper on the "Spirit Of Outwardbound", a 67ft. ex-BT Global Challenge yacht, running sailing courses to the Philippines, Japan,Taiwan and in Hong Kong local waters.

Elinor Marr.
After completing school, I qualified as a junior school teacher and worked in that field until my first son was born. I also completed beautician and interior decorating courses which I used in the years before my husband and I went sailing. My interests are sports, snorkeling, art and cooking and I have completed quite a few cooking courses in various parts of the world including the Far East. I sailed around South Africa's east and west coast with my husband before leaving for Brazil and the West Indies. We completed 2 trans-Atlantic crossings and I have logged more than 20,000 nautical miles. I have worked 2 seasons as a chef at Tradewinds Cruise Club in the Caribbean and enjoyed meeting the charter guests, and I still enjoy corresponding with our past guests.
