Captain: Fin McGurran

Fin McGurran - owner / skipper

Qualifications: RYA Yacht Master Ocean, Commercially Endorsed

Born and raised in Ireland, Fin had an early introduction to sailing, and was a keen dingy racing sailor in his teens and qualified as an instructor by the time he was 16. Cooking was one of the other passions in his early life and following that path, led him to become a qualified chef and later, to take his degree in Hospitality Management. This led him away from his native Ireland to the UK to run hotels along the south coast. This is where Fin was introduced to Big Boat sailing, and actively became involved in the racing community of the Solent.

After a career change (from the hospitality industry to the finance industry), Fin had the opportunity to own his first few yachts, which featured strongly in inshore regattas and offshore races in the English Channel, the Atlantic and the Caribbean. It was the international yacht deliveries that introduced Fin to offshore cruising, ultimately leading to the purchase of his existing yacht Mustique (in 2010) and the foundation of Mustique Yacht Charter.
