is from Perth, Western Australia. He spent 7 years in the hospitality industry, specializing in hotel and restaurant management in Western Australia. Subsequently, Dave worked in London and traveled around the world concurrently for 6-1/2 years. Some of his favorite places seen during that time include Egypt, South Africa, Turkey and Croatia. In 1998, Dave decided that a career in yachting would satisfy his wanderlust, while also utilizing his experience in the hospitality industry, so he followed in the footsteps of his siblings, and took to the high seas. His love for working on Yachts has pushed him further into studies and now he holds a Master of Yachts 3000T License and one day hopes to captain his own beautiful vessel. In his leisure time, Dave enjoys snow boarding, wake boarding and music.
