The skipper

Come aboard with Jérémi - Destination Bretagne for a sailboat cruise

What is your motto ?

You can't learn without making mistakes!

How did you come to do this job?

After a career in education, and four transatlantic voyages, I decided to combine my two passions: teaching and sailing. After two years' training in Brittany, I became a professional instructor/skipper, and since 2022 I've been running my own business.
I still love passing on my passion, whether to children or adults, beginners or future skippers.

What people say about you?

That with me they feel confident to learn, try, progress.

To know about you, apart from your job?

I'm interested in marine life and birds, and I go hiking and photography.
I also love to cook and enjoy the different flavors I discover while traveling!

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

The passage of a whale very close to our sailboat off Gibraltar, a suspended moment that will remain forever in my memory.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

A team that has come to know and appreciate each other, with memories to treasure...

Your style of practice?

I adapt to the level and desires of my trainees, with the desire to see them progress and gain self-confidence!
From sail trim to harbor maneuvers, from chart work to tide calculation, I teach all aspects of sailing with calmness and pedagogy.
And if you need a break, I'm just as comfortable sailing solo ;)
