He speaks fluent English and of course Italian, his mother tongue. He is a very trustworthy person, takes his work seriouslay and is an ultimate professional who has a great reputation in our industry. References are available from past Owners and Central Brokers.
He came onboard RUNNING ON FAITH in Winter 2021-2022 with the new Owner of the vessel, and immediately started a detailed inspection resulting in suggestions about all the necessary upgrades and improvements. These were then completed in 6 months. So we can be sure that he knows every screw and hidden corner of the vessel.....a great guarantee for all parties including his guests. Filippo is a skilled problem solver, thanks to his deep knowledge of engineering, electronics, rigging, sails and hydraulic systems. Being typically Italian he has a positive, sunny personality and is very well mannered, and although reserved is also friendly.

CHEF: Alessandra SIMEONE.
Alessandra, the Captain's wife is a great chef and able to bestow a tailor-made service to the most demanding of clients, while also offering great experience in sailing and charters,. She is a fabulous team builder, taking care of the crew members and motivating all the team.
Alessandra was born in the South of Italy, always bringing her sunny character and offering spontaneous warm hospitality. She has had much experience on sailing yachts over 25 m, either as Chef or Chief Stewardess and also takes part in regattas, as part of the racing crew. After her University degree, she took care of elements of her family hotel chain, learning the most important secrets of hospitality, catering and accommodation. She is in love "with life, nature, art and literature" and she transmits her positive attitude to everybody around her. Her cuisine is clearly a product of her love for the natural & genuine article, complete with a touch of fantasy and colour, resulting in beautiful presentation! Alessandra speaks fluent English, French and Italian – her mother tongue.

STEWARDESS: Irina SIMONETTO.
Irina was born in Northern Italy in 1973, and moved to Sicily several years ago, where she has been "infected" with the extraordinary positive mood of the Southern Italian people. She has a sunny character and a "can do" attitude. She has great experience in catering, although housekeeping and yacht maintenance and thorough cleaning (in and out) are her strengths. She is tireless, taking care of every detail, a great plus for the whole team. From time to time she will also be available to prepare some specialities, supporting the Chef. Irina was born into a hotel and restaurant owning family, and grew up learning her grandmother’s original recipes! Her attention to detail and thoughtful table settings will be unforgettable for all the guests onboard.
