Emyl Mark Hattingh – Captain
DOB: 05/30/85
Time on board: 2+ years
Emyl grew up in Gordons Bay, South Africa sailing, surfing, scouting,
and generally getting himself in to the ocean in any way possible. He
has been sailing and racing yachts since the age of 12 when he joined
the Scouts, which is where he attributes most of his skills. He left South
Africa at the age of 17 to be at sea. His ability to self-teach has turned
him in to a skilled engineer, carpenter, rigger, anything on board except
cook. (We're still working on that.) Emyl holds a 200-ton MCA Yacht Master
Offshore license and STCW 95. Most importantly, he enjoys very short walks
on the beach, pina coladas, and keeping out of the rain. Emyl's passion
for the sea will turn When And If in to the most memorable sailing experience
of your life.
Seychelles Roberts - First Mate
DOB: 04/16/87
Time on board: 1+ years
Seychelles grew up in Key Largo, Florida spending weekends on the dive
boat with her father and family vacations sailing to the Bahamas. She
is a licensed 100 ton US Coast Guard Captain and PADI open water diver
with a lifetime of boating experience. Seychelles left school at the age
of 19 to "sail around the world" on her 35' Allied. Like many others,
so far she has made it to the Caribbean. (Don't worry she still intends
to sail around the world and finish school.) In the mean time, Seychelles
enjoys a happy, healthy lifestyle, positive mental attitude, natural water
sports, yoga, and sailing on When And If. She can't wait to share these
experiences with you!
