Introducing Captain Hamish Elliott

Captain Hamish Elliott was born in a small village in rural Norfolk, England but grew up in the City of London. His love of the sea was kindled at very early age by the stories of a grandfather who was also a Captain in the Merchant Marine.

A few years later, (now aged 16), he joined his first ship, – an oil tanker – in Singapore, and has not looked back since.

Although already sailing as a cargo ship Captain, after 12 years at sea Hamish decided to switch and made the move to the Cruise Industry as a First Officer. He has since become Seabourn´s longest serving Captain.

Captain Hamish has been in command of Seabourn Sojourn for many years, sailing her to every “corner” of the globe and is delighted to be on board for what will be his 14th World Cruise.
