How did you come to do this job?

Passionate about the sea since my childhood I first sailed at Le Guilvinec on the trawler of a friend of my father's during my teenage vacation (7 years) then I discovered sailing and undertook to train myself. The meetings, in mini 6.50 for example, made me decide one day to climb the last steps.
