What is your motto ?

Discover or improve, enjoy yourself..

How did you come to do this job?

I bought my first boat when I was 20 years old. We had the opportunity to do wonderful family cruises but also many regattas (Tour de France under sail in 1988) then I created my company in 2007 for the organization of sailing seminars for companies

What people say about you?

I'm supposed to be nice, calm and reassuring

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

The day I left on a cruise just after buying my first brand new boat in 2008

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

When the weather conditions allow you to sail as much time as possible under sail in good conditions, to be able to enjoy idyllic anchorages, and when the whole crew is happy

Your style of practice?

I am often looking for the best performance, but I put pleasure and safety first
