Get your boat where she needs to be, and arrive ready to skipper the next passage yourself.
As a licensed captain and sailing coach, I sail your boat with you or for you, anywhere in the world.
Who you sail with matters.
On a long passage there’s no stepping ashore. The person you bring aboard shapes the outcome as much as the boat does, how they think, communicate, and handle pressure under load. I’m selective about who I sail with, and you should be too.
Sail with an experienced captain you get on with, who coaches as you go, and you arrive capable of commanding the boat yourself.
I’ve sailed with sailors like you.
I know what it feels like to stand on the deck of your own boat and wonder whether you’re really ready for what comes next. I’ve sailed with first time offshore sailors, with families with young children aboard, and with experienced coastal skippers facing their first blue water passage.
Every one of them carried that doubt aboard. They all sailed into their destination port much more competent and capable sailors. We parted as friends after experiencing an epic adventure together.
What owners say
“Chris demonstrated a deep understanding of offshore passage making. His approach to offshore decision making was calm, analytical, and grounded in experience. We would not hesitate to sail with Chris again.”

“Captain Chris was a perfect choice for our family. His emphasis on safety, comfort, and a can do spirit gave us the peace of mind for long passages. Well mannered, good humoured, and a natural teacher, he made us better sailors too, including our boys. We can recommend him without hesitation.”
