2nd Stewardess - Kala Pretorius
Nationality: South African
Languages: English
This ray of sunshine hails from the Cape Winelands of Stellenbosch, South Africa. With sweet, kind eyes and a calm, gentle temperament, she may seem unassuming, but she's a creative wolf in sheep’s clothing, waiting to unleash her
prowess at every opportunity.
Not only is she a graduate in textile design, but she also holds a degree from fashion school. Raised by a close-knit family with strong values of hard work, patience, and service to others, you can rest assured knowing Kala is onboard.
This stewardess has massive dreams of running her own puppy café called the "French Pug." Her love for animals, especially dogs, knows no bounds, and she is that friend who must greet every critter that crosses her path.
In addition to all of this, she's a hip-hop dancer and a devoted Justin Bieber
fan, her dream charter guest. Fingers crossed. Sporty as well, she is the full package, having played field hockey and earned her South African cheerleading colours while representing her province. At 22, she is already a proud homeowner, starting to build her nest, but before she settles down and starts a family, she wants to see as much of the globe as possible.
Kala has generously volunteered her time in Swaziland (now known as Eswatini), working with children in impoverished communities. Humbled by their poverty and inspired by their resilience, she channels her love for people
into her dream of creating a better world for all. I could go on and on about this little lamb, as her spirit brings this flock together. She's our trusted favourite ewe. Watch this space; this stewardess is well on her way to becoming chief
one day.

Mate - Marcel De Villiers
Nationality: South African
Languages: English
You know when a Blacksheep hails from a town in South Africa called Welkom, which means WELCOME! He was born for the hospitality industry. This small town is landlocked, so as soon as Marcel saw the ocean, he was
hooked and set his sights on making a career at sea. With a father who’s a chief engineer and an uncle who’s a captain, it was inevitable that Marcel’s love for travel and the maritime industry would be strong—it runs in his wooly
DNA. His family has now relocated to Florida, setting down roots in the US of A.
This adventurous ram has traveled to over 30 countries, and besides his love for the Bahamas, the green pastures of Positano on the Amalfi coast in Italy are places he could return to repeatedly. Marcel is a fishing maniac, so set
aside time to go out with him and catch the specialty of the day. Chef will be sure to fillet and prepare it for your pleasure.
Being first mate means he’s second at the helm, and that makes us feel very secure that our flock and our amazing guests are safe and sound at all times. He’s also the friendliest, most bleat-iful morning person you’ll ever meet.
So, expect to see this ram around and about at sunrise. He and Phillip are always up to mischief, so watch out for these two RAMbunctious boys.
Not satisfied with his heart being divided between Africa and the US, his dream is to buy a home in both countries, settle down, and have 2.5 lambs and a white picket fence.
So, whether you’re looking to fish, explore, or just enjoy the voyage, Marcel is your go-to guy. he’s udderly unforgettable!

After graduating from university with a Bachelors Degree in Education, Emma went on to move to Dubai where she focused on teaching Maths & Science at a high profile private school to the eager and inquisitive youth of today. Although she thoroughly enjoyed her time there, she quickly realised that she needed to

Following in her grandfather, father & brothers’ footsteps, Emma jumped ship from the teaching world to join the world of yachting. So, rest assured, your kiddies will be in the perfect hands from the time they step on board to the time her and her crew wave you all goodbye!
Our Emma is humble and gracious but has a wealth of knowledge about hospitality. She has designed tables, run events and provided exceptional silver service to some of the worlds top 10 UHNW families.
Yachting perfectly merges all these passions, and she is now on a mission to create bespoke, unforgettable memories for her guests aboard Black Sheep.
As the chief stew, Emma is a teacher and mentor who is passionate about doing good and being kind to everyone she meets. Her dream is to purchase property in the near future as well as to develop and build a gorgeous and chic home that over looks the river on her land she has bought in St Francis Bay.
Her ultimate goal is to ensure that her guests leave Black Sheep feeling as though they have experienced something so special that they can't wait to return.
