Meet your Captain and Crew

Paul Aziz has been a U.S.C.G. licensed captain since 1995. He holds a 100 ton master's license. His boating experience includes piloting commercial and private sailing vessels from Maine to the Caribbean, as well as six years operating a fleet of commercial towing and salvage vessels for the Boat/U.S. network. Paul holds a Master's degree in Environmental Education and a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration. He has taught field marine ecology from the elementary school level to the graduate school level, and he currently teaches high school biology. A strong believer in ecotourism, Paul believes that the right mix of entertainment and education makes for the most compelling experience that people can have in the great outdoors.

Janet Allen-Aziz is a life long proponent of outdoor education as a means to raise healthy families. She is a veteran of eight marathons, a Bikram Yoga Instructor, a Childlight Yoga Instructor, and the proud mother of six children (some of whom you'll also find on the crew!). Jan is the owner and director of Bikram Yoga Seacoast in Salisbury, MA. Her artistic flair and passion for education is evidenced all over the Yankee Clipper in the children's activities. Jan's smile and sense of humor will make your voyage one that you'll never forget!
