Alesea Charles
Alesea Charles learned to sail with the National Sailing Academy in Antigua and was put forward, by her instructor, for a place on the crew as a young up and coming female sailor who would benefit from the experience of sailing on Maiden. Although only 20 years old Alesea has managed to notch up an impressive number of miles and courses. When not sailing, Alesea loves to cook, has an Associate Degree in Culinary Arts and has spent time as a pastry chef (which the rest of the crew are very happy about!) With her enthusiasm for learning and passion for sailing, we believe that Alesea’s time on Maiden will be both beneficial to her and a joy for the rest of the crew as we think she makes her a perfect Maiden. We hope that Maiden will be a stepping stone for Alesea to fulfil what we know is her great potential.
