The skipper

Embark with Philippe - Destination Atlantic for a sailboat cruise

What is your motto ?

When you want to go fast, you have to take your time. That is to say, take the time to do things in the right order and at the right time, to avoid doing them several times. And then, the dream takes shape.

How did you come to do this job?

A 40 year old passion, a daily desire,... and here we go.

What people say about you?

I am said to be calm and reassuring, with a nice dose of humility that allows me to move forward in many circumstances. Who knows? It's probably a little true.

To know about you, apart from your job?

Passionate about the sea and boats for 40 years. But also a first professional career on the subjects of air and water applied to health. The bridge that is almost an evidence.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

An early morning arrival on Flores from Cuba, in the middle of a school of dolphins occupying the whole horizon. An image of fullness and great wilderness that still often accompanies me.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

Forecasting, organization, conviviality, the triptych of a beautiful cruise.

Your style of practice?

I'm not racing, even though I like to race. Some sailing areas require putting the preservation of the crew and equipment first.
