While growing up on the southwest coast of England, sailing and adventure sports were Namaste Captain Will Morgan’s primary focus. As a young adult, Will owned and maintained small sailboats and powerboats, which he used for frequent coastal cruising and racing.

In 2009, Will began his professional sailing career delivering yachts to the Caribbean. Following the trade winds west, he completed a three-year circumnavigation under sail and set his sights on adventure sailing.

Will has spent the past decade exploring remote parts of the world as a captain. He specializes in adventure cruising and water sports itineraries, and he is always on the lookout for new hidden gems to share with Namaste’s guests.

Born and raised in a coastal town near Barcelona, Namaste’s First Mate Borja began sailing small dinghies at the age of nine. Since starting his professional sailing career more than seventeen years ago, Borja has navigated the Panama Canal over ten times and has completed five Atlantic crossings and two Pacific crossings.

Borja holds an OOW Unlimited and several other yachting certificates, and he has an advanced degree in nautical science and maritime navigation. He is also a PADI Advanced Open Water certified diver, and he enjoys sharing his love of wakeboarding, kitesurfing, hiking, and exploring new destinations with guests.

Whether he is ensuring the engine room is running smoothly or planning a fun and safe water sport excursion for guests, Borja is always paying attention to the details behind the scenes. With a huge smile for everyone he meets, Borja enjoys being a hands-on first mate who does whatever he can to make Namaste’s guests happy.
