Capt. Hans Mateboer, former Master of the Disney Magic, made an excellent impression on my family during our cruise 14 months ago. I was especially impressed that my pre-teen children considered Capt. Hans' Q&A session with the kids from the Oceaneer Lab to the highlight of the Lab activities that week.
I was sorry when I read (on this board) that he had left DCL. I'm glad to hear that he's with another fine cruise line — and that his departure wasn't due to something like a health problem.
Just curious, plutospup, what was your source for this information? Was somebody you know on an HA cruise with Capt. Hans recently? Which ship?
