ETHER

MEET YOUR CREW:
Captain: Stewart Bottomley
Chef: Reeve Forget

Stewart's sailing journey began at a young age when he attended sailing camps in Ireland during the long, adventurous summer holidays. A way to keep him out of the house, these camps quickly sparked a deep passion for the sea that would stay with him.

After spending the COVID lockdown in London, Stewart realized it was time for a change. In 2022, he completed his RYA Yachtmaster and made the bold decision to pursue a life on the water. Since then, he has not looked back, spending two incredible seasons sailing in the Caribbean and three in the Mediterranean. Each experience has only deepened his love for the ocean and strengthened his desire to share that passion with others.
Stewart is also an avid traveler, having explored over 50 countries across the globe. Whether it’s a bustling city or a quiet island, he loves immersing himself in new cultures and discovering hidden gems around the world.

A keen diver, Stewart began scuba diving at the age of 14 and hasn’t stopped since. As a qualified PADI Divemaster, he’s always on the lookout for hidden dive spots, eager to explore the underwater world and share his discoveries with guests.


Reeve is an experienced yacht chef with a passion for cooking and sailing.
She began her career as a sous chef and transitioned to yacht cuisine five years ago, blending her culinary expertise with her love for the ocean.
Learning to sail small dinghies about a decade ago in France, made her realize she feels most at home on the water.
With a keen artistic eye and majoring in photography at university, she truly appreciates the beauty of sailing these beautiful islands and crystal blue waters.
Reeve thrives on the ever-changing conditions and challenges of cooking at sea which enhances her love for crafting exceptional meals.

As your charter captain and chef, Stewart and Reeve, are excited to welcome you aboard Ether and provide you with unforgettable experiences on the water, combining their love for sailing, cooking, diving, and adventure.
