Meet the 2024 Distinguished Crew Award Winner - Captain Chris Walsh & the crew of M/Y ARCHIMEDE

Meet the 2024 Distinguished Crew Award Winner - Captain Chris Walsh & the crew of M/Y ARCHIMEDE. As the longtime leader of the 66.75-meter Feadship Archimedes, Chris is revered not only for his exceptional seamanship and leadership, but also for his unwavering commitment to innovation, sustainability, and crew welfare. Chris always deflects praise to his crew—many of whom have served aboard for years, a testament to the strong culture and happy environment he has cultivated. One shining example is Interior Manager Victoria Dennis, who has been with Archimedes for more than two decades, accumulating more sea miles than most in the industry. In recent months, Chris has once again set the bar high—successfully transitioning Archimedes’ engines to run on HVO biodiesel. With zero performance issues and an emissions reduction of 75–90%, this bold move places Archimedes at the forefront of environmental responsibility in yachting. As one nominator put it: “The industry will follow Chris’ lead—it’s a beautiful thing. The International Superyacht Society is now accepting nominations for yacht crew who, within the past year, have demonstrated exceptional service, professionalism, and dedication—exemplifying the highest standards to which all professional yacht crew aspire.
