Storm Smith

Deckhand

Born and raised in South Africa, Storm Smith spent most of his time outdoors at the beach either surfing or fishing. Storm fell in love with boats and the lifestyle at sea describing his look as a “modern day pirate.” After trying out different fields from culinary school to film school, he still craved being near the water and decided to give yachting a try. With experience as a surf guide from his time in Sumatra, Smith found the perfect recipe working on a surfing and diving-centric charter yacht. Since then, he has worked on boats up to 240 feet. When faced with drama, his defense mechanism is to make light of the situation, but he has no issue taking hold of the ropes when things get out of hand.
