The skipper

Philippe loves the sea and sailing and wishes to share this passion with you. Embark with him in turquoise waters and set sail!

What is your motto ?

The sea, a real passion; sharing it, a vocation!

How did you come to do this job?

I have always lived near the sea, in Brest, in Finistère, in Brittany. I started sailing at the age of eight as an optimist and never stopped. Cruising and offshore sailing became obvious from the age of eighteen and my first professional experiences took shape in this field: captain in a cruise school, skipper in regattas, boat conveyors for rental companies. Graduated from the merchant navy (BPPV/CAPITAINE 200 VOILE) and Jeunesse & Sport (BPJEPS voile & croisière) it is quite naturally that I have made my passion a profession.

What people say about you?

Patient, competent, careful, educational.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

We only keep the best: an early morning arrival at the sleeping breast island.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

Take the time to live, to discover, to disconnect from everyday life, to want to come and return to infinity.... A group of anonymous people who leave each other as a group of friends.

Your style of practice?

Discovery, freedom, security, sharing,
