The skipper

What is your motto ?

Adventure in unusual destinations!

How did you come to do this job?

My career wasn't all mapped out, I first worked in sports, in risk management, in entrepreneurship before I got passionate about sailing adventure! I then accompanied enthusiasts, scientists and adventurers to sail in extraordinary spaces although difficult to access, but it is worth it! Sharing knowledge, ecological values, a taste for adventure and a lot of conviviality that make me love my job today.

What people say about you?

That I am a simple, human captain who looks after the safety of my passengers, the rest is nature's gift to us.

To know about you, apart from your job?

In addition to sailing, I am a great lover of mountaineering and yes, with me adventure is practiced as well on sea as on land!

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

every time there is a new adventure out of the ordinary: this feeling of the end of the world never gets old.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

When my passengers experience the trip of a lifetime and feel the sensations of the sea, alone with nature. I know it when they are amazed by these landscapes that they never thought they would really know.

Your style of practice?

As a specialist in off-the-beaten-track destinations in the most remote areas of the planet, what I enjoy most is offering the trip of a lifetime to my passengers!
