Captain Peter comes from Gympie, a small town on the east coast of Australia where he was involved in the local sailing club from a young age. In addition to sailing he is a keen surfer, scuba diver and qualified surf life-saver. Peter studied two degrees through university in Exercise Science and Education that led him to work as a Physical Education teacher for 5 years. However, his love of the ocean had him change the focus of his career, firstly as a boating instructor for Maritime Safety Queensland before joining the superyacht industry overseas.

For the past 16 years Peter has run many high-profile yachts such as Entourage, Flying Dragon, Mosaique and most recently Zeus. He lived on Mallorca with his wife and two children for the past eight years before the offer of working on Mischief brought him back to live on the Gold Coast.

Yachting has brought him all over the world, cruising as far North as Alaska and as far South as Patagonia and all through the Pacific. Having a busy last few years working on completing his Master 3000.

In his spare time, Byron likes to explore new destinations in search of the best spots for surfing and kite surfing or jumping off a mountain with his paraglider whilst experiencing new cultures along the way.

Favourite Charter Destination: Byron's favourite charter destination is the Pacific Islands, but to say one country would have to be Papua New Guinea, he was lucky enough to work on a vessel that liked to volunteer Crew expertise back in the community were needed. The best of both worlds some would say.

Favourite Charter Destination: Overseas - Malta. Aus - Whitsundays.

Favourite Yachting Experience: Beach picnics and themed events onboard are hands down the best times on charter yachts. Her favourite on Mischief so far would have to be the Superhero Party we had onboard for one teenaged guest. All 14 crew and 9 guests wore full costumes for the day. The adults definitely got just as much enjoyment out of it as the kids (maybe more). The party finished at sunset with an arm wrestling competition between the crew and guests. The finale between the oldest son and his father. It was a day to remember for sure.
