Darren Lim, Celebrity Skipper & Yacht Owner
Being a TV actor and host for more than 20 years, Darren has become a household name and a face easily (and excitedly) recognized by most Singaporeans. Known for his sense of adventure, he has lived with his family of 6 (including 4 adorable children) on board his yacht, Gracefully, for close to 3 years. Prior to Gracefully, his children also grew up at sea on board his previous 3 yachts. With his vast knowledge about the ocean and marine life, and his experience in sailing and diving, Darren hopes to educate and inspire more people to appreciate the great outdoors through our yacht charters and sailing programs.
On board Gracefully, Darren has sailed extensively within the region, exploring both the west coast of Malaysia to Phuket, Thailand, and the east coast of Malaysia to Koh Samui, Thailand. Darren is a certified RYA Day Skipper.
Other than being a celebrity, a father and our captain, Darren is also a NAUI Master Scuba Diver and enjoys golfing and motorbiking in Singapore and around the region. His ultimate life dream is to sail and motorbike around the world with his wife, Evelyn Tan.
Darren is Singaporean Chinese, and speaks English, Mandarin, and various dialects.
