Tiaan
Captain Tiaan Pistorius hails from the sunny shores of Jeffreys Bay, South Africa, where his lifelong connection to the ocean began. Surfing, sailing, diving, and fishing shaped his early years and set the course for a professional maritime career spanning over 12 years.
After delivering a wide variety of vessels across the world’s oceans, Tiaan has focused his expertise on the charter industry. He holds a Master of Yachts 200GT license along with numerous supporting maritime qualifications, combining strong technical skill with extensive blue-water experience.
Based in Aegina, Greece for the past six years, Tiaan has dedicated himself to uncovering the most beautiful and lesser-known destinations the Greek islands have to offer. When not at sea, he can usually be found repairing or rebuilding vessels abroad—from 80-foot steel landing craft to vintage racing yachts—bringing new life to old ships wherever he goes.
Known for his calm confidence and problem-solving ability, Tiaan places safety above all else, ensuring guests are always in capable hands. With a deep interest in culture, history, and travel, he delights in bringing people together through shared experiences, taking guests beyond the usual routes to hidden coves and unforgettable anchorages.
