The Lady J Crew Profile February 2010
Captain Paulo Guedes
Paulo began his yachting career at the age of 17 on commercial dive vessels in Australia and has since gained extensive experience in the luxury yachting industry. More recently Paulo, together with his wife Elizabeth Hall, ran a number of charter yachts in the Mediterranean including Jacaranda Bleu & Mimi La Sardine. Paulo and Lizzie have built a strong reputation for running highly successful charters in a professional yet relaxed manner. The past 2 years onboard The Lady J cruising the Caribbean, Virgin Islands, Bahamas and New England Coast are no exception with continued superlative feedback from all charter clients. When not chartering, Paulo enjoys water sports, snowboarding and seeing family and friends back at home in Australia.
Chef Elizabeth Hall (Lizzie)
Also from Australia - and with a strong restaurant background - Lizzie has been working in the Luxury yachting industry for a number of years. Lizzie's cooking style is a fusion of east meets west, and she prides herself on her seafood dishes and sumptuous desserts. So impressed with her cooking, a number of charter guests have offered to fund Lizzie's own restaurant and visitor's comments speak for themselves and highlight the success of her work. In her free time Lizzie enjoys snowboarding, listening to music and experimenting with food artistry.
Stewardess Gwen Westell
Gwen calls Halifax, Canada home when not travelling and working abroad soaking up the excitement life brings. After spending lengthy time absorbing the culture of both Central America and Brazil, the yachting industry proved to be a rewarding career choice to demonstrate her skills and interests. A background in hairstyling and hospitality, she prides herself in providing an unforgettable experience through attentive guest service aboard The Lady J. In her free time Gwen enjoys the cultural arts and maintaining an active lifestyle with yoga and various water and ground sports.
1st Mate Nick Ball
Born and raised on the Northern Beaches of Sydney Australia, the water has been major influence on Nick’s life. Having been on and around boats for the majority of his time, Nick is truly within his comfort zone whilst at sea.
On a personal level, some would call Nick somewhat of a fitness fanatic, and anything to do with water sports will always bring a smile of his face. It will be his pleasure to ensure that you enjoy your time whilst on board The Lady J.
