Honoring Paige Bell: Support Her Family

In Loving Memory of Paige – Supporting Her Family

Myself, Captain Frank Prest, Captain Stephan Coetzer, previous Captain Arnold Heins, Owner’s Rep Andrew Dyet, Bruce, Kathy, and all previous and current crew members on board Motor Yacht Sweet Emocean are heartbroken to share the news of the passing of our dear friend and former crew member, Paige Bell. Paige worked on Motor Yacht Sweet Emocean until December of 2024 but will always be a part of the Family.

She would have celebrated her 21st birthday on July 14th. In honor of Paige, her mother has asked that we all eat red velvet cake (her favorite) on that day and share a photo in remembrance of the beautiful soul she was.

Paige was more than a teammate, she was family. Her radiant spirit, infectious laughter, and boundless compassion made an unforgettable impact on everyone lucky enough to know her. Whether it was long days at sea or quiet moments under the stars, she brought light and warmth wherever she went.

In this difficult time, we want to come together to support the people she loved most, her family.

We’ve set up this GoFundMe to help ease the financial burden they now face. All donations will go directly to the Bell family.

Every contribution, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. If you're unable to donate, sharing this page would mean the world to us. We also ask for your prayers for strength, comfort, and peace for her family and all who loved her.

Whether you choose to donate, share a memory, or simply say a prayer, every gesture matters. Paige touched so many lives. Let’s come together to honor hers.

With gratitude and love,

The Bells, and Sweet Emocean Family
