Meet Our Staff

Rod McDowall, Operations Manager
Known as Uncle Rod to his fans, Rod was not always "large and in charge." He came to Grand Cayman from South Australia, via the Greek Islands and the Red Sea. For years, Rod worked as a dive instructor for another company on the island. He joined Red Sail Sports in 1987, which at the time was just a small dive operation of 25 employees.

With his magic touch, he has guided the company to great success. When asked which of his skills he attributes to the success of the company, he claims the success is not due to him - he only manages a team of highly qualified and professional staff. On the weekends, Rod can be found underwater, teaching his kids how to feed stingrays. Once a dive instructor, always a dive instructor!

Pat  kenney, Dive/Watersports Manager
Pat has been in the dive business in Grand Cayman for over 23 years and he and his friend, Jay Ireland, are the original founders of Stingray City! Pat joined Red Sail Sports in 1987 as crew member, and later as a captain on the Spirit of Ppalu. He also ran dive trips on the West and North sides. He later took over Tortuga Divers as General Manager and remained there after it merged with Red Sail Sports in 2002. Pat now manages dive, watersports and catamaran operations.

 

Wayne Cloete, Head Catamaran Captain
Originally from South Africa where he worked in the Restaurant industry, Wayne came to Cayman for one year and "got stuck." Having started out working for Red Sail as a beach boy, his love for the water and boats quickly landed him as Captain of their ski boat. It wasn't long before he moved to the Catamarans as crew where he remains today as Head Captain 5 years later. In his spare time Wayne is an avid surfer, diver using every available opportunity to spend in or on the water. He also loves to travel. Most of all he loves the island lifestyle!"
