CAPTAIN GIANNIS
Born in 1981 and raised in the charming town of Patras, Achaia, Greece, Captain Giannis Moschos developed an early affinity for the sea. Spending his summers in the quaint fishing village of Psathopyrgos, near the renowned Cape Drepano, also known as the Mecca of Wind, he cultivated a love for water sports, particularly sailing windsurfing, and surfing.
Although his journey to the maritime world took a detour, Captain Giannis initially pursued studies in IT. Following in his father’s footsteps, he embarked on a career as a sales representative for over a decade. Despite the demands of his profession, his passion for the sea remained unwavering, and he continued to participate in competitive sailing and windsurfing events. In 2012, Captain Giannis decided to turn his lifelong passion into a career and transitioned to becoming a commercial skipper. With an extensive background in boatyards and formal education from the Royal Yachting Association in Portsmouth, England, he earned the designation of Commercial Yachtmaster for vessels up to 200GT.
Over the years, Captain Giannis has amassed thousands of nautical miles, navigating diverse waters and hosting numerous charters around the world. His proficiency extends to every aspect of the profession, including yacht handling, safety, seamanship, weather routing, and exceptional communication and social skills with a guest-focused attitude. For Captain Giannis, being a skipper is not merely a profession; it is a lifestyle. Grounded in ethos, responsibility, and courteousness, coupled with his extensive local knowledge of islands, culinary expertise, and a passion for outstanding hospitality, he and his crew are dedicated to ensuring that your vacation experience is truly unforgettable.

The crew were patient, kind and truly made every effort to get to know us and anticipated our needs. They tailored the trip to us once they understood what we would enjoy. Everyone always had a bright smile, explained everything and answered all our questions. We had the best strawberry daiquiris. Everything Was absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for everything.
August 2023, charter familyAug 20, 2023PerfectGoing on Namaste for a week was the perfect end of our vacation before heading back to New York. Perfect food, trip, service. We couldn’t have asked for a better crew! We couldn’t figure out how chef was able to host breakfast, lunch, dinner and with all such amazing skills. Captain, apart from his sailing skills we had the pleasure of enjoying his amazing personality. My son Joe is never gonna be the same with other water toys because he is now an expert on the Sea Bob all under your supervision. Thank you. Hopefully we can be on Namaste next summer.

Charter Guests / June 2023Jun 8, 2023Five Star ExperienceThis was the most incredible experience! I never imagined this week would be so spectacular. The crew pampered and cared for us - such incredible service! And the food!!!!!! I’ve never eaten so well in my life! The variety, flavours, nutrition all were the best. Every stop was gorgeous - every island different. Thanks to the captain and crew for adjusting our original itinerary to make it an even better experience. Greece is beautiful. We can not wait to return to the Namaste. A five star experience. Thank you so much. All our love, appreciation and thanks! We will come back soon.
Charter Guests / June 2023Jun 1, 2023Highlight of My LifeTo any reading this onboard the Namaste, you know that words can not convey the whole experience. The boat, the crew, the food and the Islands! Those who maybe reading this as a review; this has been a highlight of my life with my husband agreeing. There may be many ships that sail the Greek Islands, but a catamaran with this crew is the way to go. I promise you. And if let the chef do their thing, you will be amazed every meal. The crew and management reading this, the experience you were trying to achieve with your guests was over and above what was expected. Thank you for forever memories.
Charter Guests / September 2022Sep 11, 2022Special MemoriesOur wonderful Greece adventure was made so much more special and memorable because of your hard work, kindness and hospitality. You made us feel comfortable, welcome and at home. The special memories we made together for our trip will be so much more special because we shared them with you. We admire your knowledge and professionalism. You are amazing at what you do and we will always remember the time we spent together on Namaste. This is not goodbye, but so long for now because we will see you again on future adventures.
