How did you come to do this job?

I climbed the ranks of seasonal sailing instructors and then base leader in clubs to set up my structure. Having been part of several sports teams and accompanied sailboats to the different places, I enjoy sharing and giving the desire to sail.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

Colours never seen before, a full moon night under the spinnaker, with a medium wind and flat sea.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

A success is when people have let go of their daily hassles and have enjoyed themselves while meeting other people.

Your style of practice?

Everyone needs and can find their place on deck by bringing aboard what makes them unique and their life experience. Novice or experienced, able-bodied or disabled, my mission is for everyone to take pleasure at his or her on level. My sailboat is a versatile ship that serves to satisfy all of these possibilities.
