Mate | William Duke

With a solid foundation of eight years of experience on both Sailing and Motor Yachts, William's primary focus lies in advancing his practical knowledge and qualifications in engineering. Working at sea in a dynamic environment has become a genuine passion that motivates and drives him. Coming from a construction background, William has a keen interest in carpentry, form design, and sculpture. He is fascinated by finish materials and functional aesthetics. Alongside his love for engineering and craftsmanship, he has also pursued sports, making him a keen sportsman.

Exploring new coastlines with a fishing rod or hike into the wild with a tent is a happy place for William!
