Donald has been part of the Seatrek team for the past few summers working mostly on the RIB Deep one, this season he has been the Skipper for our new boat Lochlann taking customers out on all our day trips and commercial charters including survey work.
Having grown up on Lewis he is an expert on the local history and geography. Donald will always be able to tell you an interesting tale about the local heritage. He spent several years working at sea on commercial fishing boats so consequently knows the surrounding shores and waters well. |

Having spent at least the last 8 summers helping Murray with Sea trek Thomas is a well-known friendly face down at the pier and in the cabin. He is often out on the RIB trips pointing out the wildlife and showing people about the small islands we visit.
Thomas is a music teacher during term time and is always a favorite with the children, especially when showing them Starfish, lobster or getting them to stroke the Velvet crabs that have been caught in the lobster pots. |
