Profile

Be safe and enjoy your time on the water. Relax.

I love sailing because it keeps you close to nature and provides a thrilling experience when the wind is up. With over three decades on the water, I've found that the best moments come when you can truly unwind and connect with the elements around you.

Whether you're new to sailing or looking to expand your skills, I'm here to share my knowledge and passion in a way that's accessible and enjoyable. Safety always comes first, but a close second is making sure you have a memorable experience on the water.
