The skipper

Embark with Stéven - Destination Bretagne for a sailboat cruise

What is your motto ?

The sailor is distinguished by his ability to nap at any time, in any place, in any weather.

How did you come to do this job?

when I was traveling with my small sailboat and wondering how to make a living out of this passion, I repeatedly came across a sailboat skippered by a liveaboard sailing instructor. After a few beers and a good aperitif, the decision was made: I was going to become a sailing instructor!

What people say about you?

That I am a teacher and patient on the boat.

To know about you, apart from your job?

Currently in reconversion towards the merchant navy, I turn to the transport with the veil and the oceanographic research for which I dedicate a great interest since my youth.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

During a night watch off Portugal with a light breeze, we saw in the bioluminescence of the plankton a school of sardines coming to take refuge under the boat while a group of dolphins was hunting.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

When everyone enjoyed the sailing.

Your style of practice?

Cruise.
