Captain Warren East – Sailing Visionary & Family Man

Background: Warren East has been on the water since he was a child, first learning to sail with his father at the age of four. After a stint away from sailing, he rekindled his passion at university and never looked back. In 1994, Warren set sail from England to the Caribbean, earning his captain’s license and embarking on what would become a lifelong career in the charter yacht industry. With over 500,000 sea miles and around 500 charters under his belt, he’s a seasoned captain who’s chosen to focus on family-sized catamarans over massive superyachts.

Role & Philosophy: As the captain of Che, Warren is not only the navigator and leader, but also the second engineer when needed, ensuring the boat is always in top shape. He’s deeply involved in the maintenance, planning, and overall care of the yacht. But more than that, Warren is a family man who loves working alongside his wife Elizabeth, his daughter Alea, and Alea’s partner Santiago. For him, having his family and close friends on board is a dream come true.

Passions & Hobbies: Warren is a passionate sailor who thrives on the simple joy of turning off the engines and harnessing the wind. He loves exploring new places, finding the best snorkel spots, and sharing these experiences with guests. He’s also a photographer, having contributed to his wife’s award-winning cookbook, and he’s an avid drone enthusiast who enjoys capturing the beauty of the ocean from above.

A Life at Sea: For Warren, life aboard Che is the culmination of decades of dedication to the sea. He’s lived on boats for 35 years and considers himself the luckiest captain on earth to share this journey with his family and close friends. And now, he looks forward to welcoming guests into that family atmosphere, offering them not just a charter, but a true home at sea.
