Max comes from the UK and has long had a passion for the water, having spent many of his childhood summer holidays sailing. After studying Engineering and Business Studies at college, Max went on to complete his yacht master sailing qualification with the UKSA. His first stint onboard TALISMAN MAITON was in 2020 to help with vessel while still in the shipyard.
What skill are you best at teaching guests?
Jetskiing because I've had plenty of experience and enjoy helping guests feel confident and safe. I find it very rewarding seeing them improve and have fun on the water. When they are feeling more confident I am able to teach them tricks which creates unforgettable memories.
How do you reassure people who are nervous about swimming/getting in and out of tenders etc?
If a guest is nervous about getting in the water, I would reassure them by calmly explaining the safety measures in place, ensuring they have the right gear, and offering to guide them step-by-step to build their confidence.

Tibor grew up in a small town just outside Amsterdam, the Netherlands. A graduate of the Rotterdam Maritime Institute, he first fell in love with boating in Australia, where he volunteered on a classic tall ship. When he isn’t on board, you’ll find him hiking and travelling around Europe in his off-grid campervan or working on carpentry projects. Always on the lookout for new adventures, Tibor swaps his hiking boots for ski boots in the wintertime.
What is the best feature on TALISMAN MAITON?
The layout for guests allows for both privacy and great social spaces, creating an ideal environment.
How do you go about making guests feel welcome on board?
I always greet guests with a warm smile and offer to help with anything they might need right away. I also love to share a fact about the yacht or cruising area.

What is your favourite cocktail to make?
My absolute favorite cocktail to make is the espresso martini. It’s not only my personal favorite but also ideal for cocktail hour—smooth, perfectly balanced, served in a chilled glass, with just the right hint of caffeine to add an extra spark to the evening.
Why do you think the team aboard your current yacht is different/special?
The longevity, with the majority of crew having been onboard for a minimum of two years. Not only does this mean the crew know the boat well but it also means they get on very well.
