George Ioannou
Captain
Twenty years ago, Greece’s Captain George Ioannou made the leap from working in the fast lane of superfast ferries, into the fast lane of superyachting. Since then, he’s had the privilege of commanding some of the most beautiful, prestigious and most sought-after charter yachts in the world.
Captain Ioannou shares a particularly unique bond with his current yacht - the famous Geco - in that he has been with her since she was still under construction. When he’s not welcoming guests on board the yacht whose DNA he helped to shape, he can be found passionately extolling the virtues of Greece and her proud seagoing heritage.
