| Hi, my name is Yole and I'm an Industrial and Sailboat Designer coming from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am passionate about design, navigation and nature. 20 years ago I left my country and went to explore the world through design. I have lived for several years in Spain, the United States and Argentina. Since February 2022 I've been working for a French company who develop liveaboard motorsailers. Due to my job I spend half the year in Argentina working with my design team, and the other half of the year in Europe training in navigation and developing research for our naval project. My sailing experience concentrates on the Mediterranean Sea in a Bavarian 44. From September to December 2022, with my team we sail around Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, Malta and Napoli. Now I am looking for new experiences in order to improve my sailing skills and continue our design project. I'm especially interested in exploring places like Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Greece, trying different boats and meeting the community of sailors worldwide. During my experience of three continuous months sailing in the Mediterranean, I learned the importance of teamwork, caring for the lives of others as well as my own, the importance of staying calm in extreme moments, overcoming fears and turning them into adrenaline, the importance of a sense of humor and joy in life, love and respect for the ocean and the passion to remain united to the world of sailing. I completed the Red Cross first aid course, so I hope not only to be a fun company while sailing but also to be able to contribute in different crew roles.
