With over 20 years’ experience as a captain on private and charter yachts travelling across the globe I bring both versatility and professionalism to any position I undertake. My experience ensures that safety operations and protocols, crew management, operational and technical management of the boat, maritime compliance and charter management combine to offer and exceed owners and guests expectations.
I have rebuilt the charter reputation on Sunliner X from being nonexistent to being a very successful well known high turn around charter vessel placed with a variety of charter brokers. I have successfully seen through to completion extensive refits on the vessel on both exterior and interior. This included main engines, generators, stabilizers, bow thruster, structural refits and three special periodical surveys under the ABS class. During my 17 years on board I have developed a stable and close working relationship with the owner ensuring I fully deliver their expectations.
This private yacht was used by owner and family during a fully booked season between Cannes, Monaco, St Tropez.

I managed this Sailing vessel through a busy year doing day charters between Tahiti and the Marlon Brando’s island Tetiaroa.
I owned this bar/restaurant in the island of Noirmoutier, west coast of France.
