Janne likes challenges, either it is in stormy weather or running comprehensive IT project for the government. After thirty years of giving people the opportunity to be a part of his experiences from the sea he conveys a feeling of rough seamanship together with warm welcoming. With Janne you never feel the atmosphere is uncomfortable or feeling as a beginner onboard, he explains it to you.
Kerstin's mix of experiences has created a personality that sets an atmosphere onboard built on our key word, customer care. She serves new baked bread for breakfast and in the afternoon the yacht again smells like bakery. She anticipates the guests and their needs either it is a question of an extra quilt or a special tea for breakfast. When Kerstin serves her three-dishes-meal with a smile on her face she personifies the expression "A Happy Ship".
Marten has the perfect combination of experiences, several Atlantic crossings and seasons in the Caribbean, restaurant- and hotel manager and chef at several reputable restaurants. Sailing with Marten you will hear him saying: "Bring it up and I will serve it, so start fishing!" After living on an island in the Stockholm Archipelago for many years Marten has a strong passion for the sea.
Jens is a truly professional chef. His experiences from serving our government and their international guests has given him a confidence beyond any doubt. The dishes he creates will fulfill your wildest expectations and they will all be served with a big smile. Jens is full of energy which he splits between his two young daughters, being a chef and running marathons.
Thomas´ wide experience of the sea from rough places such as the North Sea and Barents sea, has made him a very professional seaman. His way of always taking care of his ship and guests makes everybody trust him and feel they are in good hands. Thomas is super organized and he never lets thing just happen, he stays on top of them.
I got a very nice feedback from my client regarding his cruise on board ICHIBAN.
"The 7 days on Ichiban were extremely enjoyable for me and my family. Janne and his wife Kerstin spoiled us. The sailing area is uniquely beautiful. The yacht Ichiban offers impressive sailing experiences. Whenever possible, the sails were set, always with the active help of my family. Janne also handed over the helm to us when we wanted it. We learnt a lot about ocean sailing without Janne's missionary approach of turning us into professional sailors.
Kerstin's culinary delights left nothing to be desired, which was not easy as four of my family were vegetarians".
Thank you so much for giving them a wonderful holiday and hope to work with you in future again.
A journey on board Ichiban is all you can possibly wish for on a holiday."
A combination of gorgeous nature in the northern summer sun and sailing experience with elegance and wisdom: Janne and his collaborators are such amazing sailors, cooks and human beings. It is a perfect experience for a range of ages: from elderly to teenagers, we all learned how to have fun, to enjoy and respect a most remarkable sailing boat.
For me personally, a morning jump in the frigid waters and a day of sailing and exploring together with family and friends - all so well taken care of - are the best dream!"
Ichiban is a fantastic yacht, with all the luxuries and comfort you can expect. Fantastic food, always trying to capture local specialities, prepared by the resident top chef and eaten on a beautifully decorated dining table. Little things like change of bed sheets midweek makes you feel pampered and as if you where in great hotel more than onboard a sailing yatch.
All supervised by Captain Janne, who is always ready to accommodate our wishes, running a highly efficient and safe ship."
