FIRST MATE: Pieter Storbeck – South African
Joined Spring 2019
Originally from South Africa – Pieter is driven, fit and enthusiastic and has already accrued 10 years’ experience in the yachting industry! Not such a surprising fact considering that he started sailing at the age of 14 to compete in the Clipper Round the World Race – famous for the rigorous pre-training prior to the race of a lifetime where people from different professions come together to navigate the globe in 8 legs.
Since then he has worked his way up the ladder, starting as deckhand on M/Y 4H (40m) and has experienced cruising in the Med, Bahamas, Florida, Caribbean, Spain, the Canaries, Montenegro and Croatia.
Pieter is a non-stop action type of guy – and his hobbies include sailing, skiing, cooking, photography, mountain biking and hiking as well as watersports.
He now joins the formidable crew of 7 on Aura, leading by example and eager to take on the challenges of a busy charter season.
