Chef Robin Thompson
Robin was born in N.Ireland where he grew up on his family’s farm before heading to England to attend university. Thirsty for adventure Robin joined his sister in Boston and sailed to the Caribbean. Once there he began work aboard one of the world’s largest sailing trimarans where he worked for three years, progressing from steward to cook. A chance meeting with another Captain soon brought him into the world of catamarans and gave him a chance to hone his cooking skills. After a year onboard Robin returned to Ireland to enroll in cooking school and acquired his Chef’s certification back in 2008.
Returning to a life at sea, but this time on a new yacht, Robin grew his charter experience and his passion for both food and service. He also met, and began working under, Captain Drew Meyers. Drew and Robin have now worked together for 10 years and love being able to show you WindQuest has to offer. Robin relishes the chance to present you his food with style and flair and can’t wait to welcome you aboard to start your dream vacation. Fully Covid vaccinated

For the next four years - during breaks from university - Will would continue to return to the Mediterranean to sail and windsurf in various professional capacities. Before joining WindQuest, Will also attained a 1st class BSc degree in ‘Creative Music Technology’, and he continues to write music and dabble in filmmaking from the boat (you may even go home with your own video!).
