| Hi Guys, I've been sailing since I was still wet behind the ears and have logged around 63000 miles (have sort of stopped counting). This includes a circumnavigation when I was very young, a number of crossings, many ocean races on different types of yacht, deliveries and working as a charter Captain in the Caribbean. Bought a Fountaine Pajot Lipari 41 Catamaran last year and did a leisurely 11000 mile trip from Croatia to Durban. During my spare time I'm a IYT Sailing Instructor at a Sailing School in Durban, South Africa. I enjoy competitive sailing and often race my 505 sailing dinghy and have sailed this in 4 World Championships. I enjoy windsurfing and am a beginner kite boarder and am also into fishing, spearfishing, trail running, mountain biking ... | |
