I joined yachting in 1995 after university, things were quite different then and I have seen yachting grow into the fast paced environment it is today. It still attracts great people from all walks of life and there is never a dull moment. My first command was a 28m Dutch built cruiser in 2000 and since then I have been lucky to have worked in many different places around the world. Charter yachts are still my favourite, taking a fun bunch of people cruising will be something I will never tire of….
