HOWARD and MICHELLE MASSEY-HICKS

Owner run and living their dream, Howard and Michelle started Danforth Yachting lodge and yacht charters in 2001. The couple have both sailed since their youth and both grew up enjoying watersports. They decided to sell up their town based electrical business, to live and work on Lake Malawi.

Howard is an Electrical Engineer, turned mariner. He has over 40,000 nautical miles under his belt and is regarded as the authority on sailing and navigating Lake Malawi. Howard is also a PADI Divemaster, Hobie-cat sailor, waterskier, fisherman and larger than life host! The yacht Mufasa is his pride and joy and Howard makes sure the yacht is maintained in pristine condition.

Michelle's job description is diverse - everything from yacht crew, hostess, administrator and kitchen supervisor, to waterski demonstrator and seamstress! Michelle adds the feminine touch to the lodge and is ever the gentle hostess. Howard and Michelle make a formidable team and are the backbone behind Danforth Yachting.

Ryce has worked for the Massey-Hicks family for nearly 15 years and has adapted and grown into the position of head chef at Danforth Yachting. His exceptional cooking skills combined with his happy disposition and seniority make Ryce an invaluable member of the Danforth team.
