PENELOPE
Penelope offers a class-leading amount of usable living
space. Stepping on board for the first time you are
immediately struck by the spacious, flush deck and
overwhelmed by the incredible amount of interior volume.
The accommodation layout offers three staterooms
located aft of the saloon. The master cabin has a king
sized bed and a private en-suite shower and head. The
two family/guest staterooms have two large single beds,
which are fitted on slide rails which can be pushed
together to form a large double bed. A third fold down
bed is also available. Each has a private head and shower.
A raised saloon offers a panoramic view and leads forward
and down to a more intimate lounge and separate dining
area. Forward of the main living area is the crew galley
and two crew cabins.
Penelope also achieves outstanding performance even in
the lightest of winds with a performance orientated hull

and North Sails Spectra Carbon sails,

CREW
Captain Robert Lloyd
Chef Courtney Elkerbout
Robert was introduced to sailing from the age of 5. Beginning as so many do,
on the optimists, before progressing to pico and lasers at Hawley Lake Training
centre. Sailing continued as a hobby at school which involved inter school
regattas on occasion.
Courtney is from the small rural town of Marton, New Zealand.
Growing up on the water back home Courtney combined her love
of this and her inner adventurer and took to Europe in search of
work on yachts early 2012. 5 years down the line she has worked in
the interiors of both sail and motor yachts of various sizes. Beginning
her yacht career as a stewardess, Courtney then found it an obvious
choice to transition into the galley full time after attending The
Grange Cookery School in Somerset, England. Being brought up in
a family owned bar and restaurant she has always grown up around
the heat and hype of a busy kitchen.
This hobby turned professional in 2007 when Robert completed two
successful flotilla seasons in the Greek Ionian. Liking the idea of a hobby being
worked as a means of employment, He turned his attention to bigger yachts
whilst travelling NZ.
Robert began his yachting career on an Oyster 82’ as a mate and quickly learnt
what it would take in this line of work. Following this he spent four exciting
and adventurous years on board a 175’ modern classic, where he cruised
the Pacific, Chilean fjords, Southern Ocean, Mediterranean, Caribbean and
North America. The opportunity arose to complete his Chief Mates ticket and
assume the role of 1st Officer, and more recently he acquired his Master 500.
Robert and Courtney have been working together for over three years and
look forward to using their combined experience into providing a wonderful
time for guests on board Penelope.
PENELOPE
She too, like Robert, has been fortunate enough to visit some
amazing destinations off the beaten track. Courtney loves immersing
herself into new environments and cultures and especially thrives
on sampling new flavours and cuisines to incorporate these in her
dishes. Outside the galley Courtney is a keen diver, she enjoys a
good hit on the tennis court and loves to entertain friends and family
with delicious home cooked food.
