Get your boat where it’s going and become the skipper who can do it next time.
Licensed delivery captain, coach, and consultant. I sail your boat with you or for you, worldwide.
Don’t trust your first ocean passage to chance.
Once you leave port, you’re committed. There is no stepping off or reset. Who you bring aboard is critical. How they think, communicate, and handle pressure is as important as their qualifications. I’m selective about who I sail with. You should be too.
The solution. Sail with an experienced captain you get on well with, someone who will guide, coach, and build your capability, so you arrive at your destination capable of commanding your own boat.
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.”
Derek & Michelle Peters SV Solis · Vision 444 ES Catamaran
“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.”
