Captain Dylan Paynter
Born in South Africa and raised between the coast and the wilderness of Botswana, Captain Dylan brings a perfect blend of adventure, calm confidence, and deep-rooted hospitality to every charter.

From a young age, Dylan’s life has revolved around water and exploration — from barbel runs in the Okavango Delta and tiger fishing in Shakawe to cruising the Chobe River and wakeboarding on the coast. He spent his early years operating tractors and heavy equipment, guiding 4x4 safaris and quad tours, and hosting guests on game drives — all of which honed the leadership and problem-solving skills he brings to life at sea.

Dylan’s love for sailing began at university, where he raced L26 monohulls while earning his BCom degree. After qualifying as a skipper in South Africa’s famously wild waters, he went on to sail more than 11,000 nautical miles through 17 countries — from ocean crossings to long-range island hopping.

Now with multiple BVI charter seasons under his belt, Dylan has become known for his relaxed yet capable presence at the helm, his extensive island knowledge, and his natural instinct for crafting unforgettable experiences. Whether it’s a quiet sunset sail, whale-watching from the bow, a day of water toys and snorkeling, or celebrating a special occasion, Dylan ensures every moment is safe, seamless, and full of joy.

When he’s not at the helm of Casa Blanca, you’ll find him freediving, spearfishing, flying his drone, capturing wildlife photography, or firing up the BBQ for his guests. With the patience of an elephant and a true love for the sea, Dylan creates a warm, adventurous, and unforgettable atmosphere aboard.
