​Chris (RYA Yachtmaster):
​
'I'm privileged to combine working with a wide range of interesting people, while pursuing my passion for boats, sailing and life on the water.
Over the years I've owned, refitted, sailed and delivered numerous boats across iconic waters, from the the North Sea and Mediterranean to the English Channel, Channel Islands and historic and beautiful inland waterways in both the UK and Europe. During this time I've become RYA qualified from Sea Survival, First Aid to Yachtmaster and never lost my interest in boats, or my keenness to share it.'
