Sail Lanka Charter reached a historic milestone by introducing female crew members to serve on their fleet of catamarans, the first to do so in Sri Lanka’s marine tourism landscape. This signifies a major step towards promoting gender equality, empowerment, respect, and diversity within the industry.

Reflecting on this significant achievement, Sail Lanka Charter Managing Director Mario Stubbs shared: "We are immensely proud to announce the inclusion of our first female crew members. This achievement speaks not only to our dedication to creating unforgettable maritime experiences but also to our commitment to fostering gender equality and diversity within an industry traditionally dominated by men. Sail Lanka Charter has evolved beyond simply exploring the breathtaking beauty of Sri Lanka's coastlines; it now stands for embracing the values of empowerment and respect for all. These talented women, with their diverse backgrounds and expertise, will bring their unique skills and perspectives to our team. We are confident that their dedication and attention to detail will enhance the overall guest experience, and our bespoke training ensures they deliver world-class service on board."

Sail Lanka Charter is poised to demonstrate their commitment to diversity and empowerment through the introduction of well-compensated positions for its female crew members.
