Pia1913 Posted November 19, 2012 #126 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Interesting... So is Captain Yeoman... Yes, Capt. McCharming (a/k/a Tony Yeomans) is short in stature, but tall in the eyes of his passengers. Just a nice guy overall. :D And, hopefully no changes for New Years, since we fully expect him to be our captain for that cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVBill Posted November 19, 2012 #127 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yes, Capt. McCharming (a/k/a Tony Yeomans) is short in stature, but tall in the eyes of his passengers. Just a nice guy overall. :D And, hopefully no changes for New Years, since we fully expect him to be our captain for that cruise. Agree with that. Captain Yeomans did our renewal of vows ceremony in march. Extremely personable, not rushed at all -mentioned he just got new reading glasses from Costco so he could read our vows. :-). Altered our course slightly on the last sea day so passengers could get a better look at the sailing ship Amsterdam - beautiful ship... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaddaBest Posted November 19, 2012 #128 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The only one I know is Capt. Yeomans will be on the Ruby in April:D:D Tony Yeomans; he has my vote. I will be on the Crown on the 20 day Transatlantic from Venice and we have Captain Andy (from the Bridge) Proctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogun Posted November 19, 2012 Author #129 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Hi All A story about Tony for you, one formal night while in the atrium which was packed, waiting on the Captains speach, Tony spotted to me and came over and started chatting, he is not a big bloke and was wearing a white diner jacket, now he was being pushed about a bit as folks tried to get a better view, the lady next to be was quite large and while not rude was not polite to him as he tried to get over to chat, he then went to go and do his speach, as soon as he started the lady next to me spotted that he was the person she had been pushing and complaing about, to say she went a bit red would be an understand. Tony is to polite and very much the gentleman to say anything to a passenger. yours Shogun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeyto Posted June 2, 2013 #136 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Does anyone know how long Capt. Tony Draper will be with the Royal initially? I'm sailing on the Caribbean Maiden Voyage and am hoping he's still her Captain at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Gal Posted August 6, 2013 #139 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I think you will find that Captain Stefano Ravera is now with P&O Australia on the Pacific Dawn and that Captain Carlo Servillo is on the Ocean Princess. He was our Captain when we were on the Ocean in June though he was leaving the ship in Dover for his leave so I am not sure who was taking over from him.

spyro1952 Posted August 14, 2013 #147 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Who is the captain on the Royal on the Scandinavia & Russia cruise, 12 May 2014? it's hard to say that far out as they do switch around because of holiday, etc. I've been on cruises where they've switched Captains in the middle of the cruise. You will get an email at some point from a Captain but that still might not be the Captain for your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gladysdale Posted April 4, 2016 #148 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I hope that all the captains are equally knowledgeable and it would make no difference who you get. Yes, some are friendlier, better speakers, etc. We just don't want to get the one that abandons ship during an emergency. The captain DOES make a difference. We recently sailed on the Caribbean Princess 10 days. We are usually invited to the Most Traveled dinner with the Captain and staff. I guess the Captain decided it did not fit his wishes so they had a "Cocktail Party" Where the staff could mingle. One drink, no entertainment, Poor way to meet and mingle with tables for 4 filled with attendees. I talked to the captains circle manager and he told me it was the captain's request. I guess he thinks he is too good to spend time with the customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
