COOL BREEZE

Having grown up on the Solent, UK on the family yacht, Christian has always had a passionate love and respect for the sea and was only a matter of time before he entered into the professional world of yachting at the age of 17. A keen traveller and natural leader he raced through the ranks becoming captain at the age of 23 and has since then travelled many parts of the world in both hemispheres and to this day doesn’t tire from the wonderful places to be seen and experiences to be had with hundreds of guests and owners from all walks of life. Christian loves to provide that unique experience together with his energetic and vibrant crew and relishes in seeing the enjoyment that guests have on their unique holidays going that extra step to make sure it all falls into place. His hobbies include cooking, hiking, golf and diving as well as being very handy with the DIY when at home in the South of France.
