Bobby Groves
Captain
Bobby was born and raised in Bath, UK, subsequently moving to Oxford to study business and law. Bobby’s professional career began as operations director for a creative studio in London but, inspired by his grandfather and choosing to follow in his footsteps, Bobby decided to pursue a life at sea. Bobby has now logged over 100,000 nautical miles and has captained vessels up to 92m in length. He has extensive experience on both private and charter yachts, accruing valuable knowledge and constantly striving to achieve the highest standards. Bobby is currently working towards his Marshall Islands Unlimited License. When it comes to cruising destinations, Bobby recommends the Caribbean, and specicifically Antigua, for its relaxed atmosphere and beautiful beaches. For old-world charm, he says Italy’s Amalfi coast is hard to beat, and if you’re keen to venture further afield then the Seychelles top his list. Bobby thinks B2’s beach club is the yacht's greatest feature - it resides beneath the aft swimming pool and is a spectacular spot to relax. The direct access to the water is ideal for those wanting to make use of B2’s toys, and he says the SeaBobs are great fun.
