Born in North of France, Teo pursued an engineering degree that ignited his curiosity and led him to work-related travels across South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe. His diverse experiences have enriched his skills and knowledge, making him a versatile and experienced engineer.
Teo's journey into yachting began at 25 when he reconnected with a friend living on a sailboat in New Caledonia. This experience inspired him to invest in a sailboat with two friends, leading to a four-year circumnavigation through the Southern Oceans and around the three capes. This adventure transformed his enthusiasm for sailing into substantial expertise. Post-COVID, Teo combined his engineering skills with his sailing experience to transition into professional yachting alongside his partner, Samanta, who is Starfall Chef.
Teo enjoys a range of sports, including kitesurfing, freediving, climbing, trail running, and snowboarding. He also loves cooking, learning new languages, and immersing himself in different cultures. His travels allow him to experience the beauty of nature and the diversity of the world firsthand.

Flor discovered sailing while in Barcelona and immediately decided to live on board what soon became her own boat. It was an exciting time for her—a brand new experience that would eventually shape her life. She was introduced to the nautical world and started working in the industry to learn as much about sailing as possible.
After gaining significant experience, Flor continues to work with great enthusiasm, handling all onboard details with a positive attitude.
Flor’s first experience as a sailor was remarkable. With only two crew members—a captain and herself—she took on a wide range of responsibilities. Her duties included cooking, serving, and assisting with maneuvers, and she performed each task with grace, both inside the boat and on deck.
Always attentive to what’s happening on deck, she offers top-tier service and support to her colleagues.
Flor consistently ensures that guests feel safe and well cared for, combining her empathetic nature with a strong focus on the well-being of others.
Among her previous experiences she likes to recall the one on board SW110 Thalima, in 2021.
