Andi cycled to the Netherlands from his native Switzerland hoping to find work sailing so skippering the Clipper Stad Amsterdam is a dream come true for him. 

Moritz has sailed and operated traditional sailing ships since 1993. After one year as a deckhand and several as a skipper on Dutch coastal and inshore waters, he left for the Baltic Sea and the Caribbean. Moritz has sailed all over the world on a variety of large sailing ships and in almost every conceivable position: sailor, engineer, nautical officer and captain.

Between 2007 and 2012, Moritz sailed on the Clipper Stad Amsterdam as second officer for one year and as first officer for four years. In June 2015, he became one of the two captains on board.

Frank van Wamelen started working on board the Clipper Stad Amsterdam in 2015. He had enjoyed many sailing holidays as a child, wonderful holidays worldwide and a varied career in the catering business for numerous companies.

These qualifications make Frank ideal to work as a host, chef and caterer, and his first position on board was that of Chef de Rang. In 2016, he was promoted to hospitality manager, the job of his dreams. He looks forward to welcoming you on board with a big smile!

Over the years, she met the Clipper Stad Amsterdam several times in ports all over the world and she became touched by the enthusiastic stories of the crew members. This year she had the wonderful opportunity to start working on the Clipper herself. 
Ingrid graduated in 2013 from the Hotel Management School Maastricht, after which she started her career at sea. At first as a restaurant manager on cruise ships and now she is the hospitality manager at the Clipper Stad Amsterdam. Life on board and hospitality turned out to be a great combination for Ingrid. Can you think of something better than working and traveling all over the world at the same time?

Ingrid loves to share her enthusiasm for sailing and her passion for hospitality with you on board the Clipper Stad Amsterdam. See you soon!
