Content Warning: This episode discusses death, assault, and systemic failure.
In the third and final installment of this Yachting USA series, host Rick Thomas continues his conversation in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, with Elle Fisher — Author & Advocate.
Elle shares the story of her friend Jess, a South African yacht chef whose death in Ibiza was silenced under powerful ownership and management interests. From the suppression of evidence and firing of crew to the lack of repatriation and investigation, Elle exposes the culture of silence that still exists in parts of the yachting world.
She also opens up about her own decision to leave the industry she loves — and the desperate need for an independent, confidential crew support hotline free from management, owners, and agencies.
Elle shares:
✅ The death of her friend Jess in Ibiza and the unanswered questions that remain
✅ How powerful figures silenced a crime scene and replaced an entire crew overnight
✅ Why NDAs, fear, and control keep victims and witnesses quiet
✅ The emotional aftermath — grief, trauma, and burnout
✅ Why she believes yachting still needs an independent crew protection system
✅ A call to entrepreneurs and leaders to step up and build what’s missing
