Nick has been a professional in the marine industry for the past 25 years. His work has included: boatbuilder, charter fleet manager,
captain, refit manager, engineer and race crew. Unlike some Captains, He is an experienced sailor in the true meaning. His passion for
sailing started in his youth aboard dinghies. After school he furthered his love of boats and the sea with a nautical education,
accepting an apprenticeship as a shipwright. This gave him a wide range of skills, including structural engineering, systems management,
materials usage, and many more. As a shipwright he has the hands on expertise to manage the tangible aspects of a vessel.
Since that time, Nick joined several vessels as Captain and crew, traveling well over 150,000 nautical miles all over the globe. He is
experienced in working overseas and has been involved in commissioning vessels and yacht refit programs, and has commercially operated
as Charter Captain extensively.
Guest satisfaction and safety are Nicks #1 goals when operating any vessel. He enjoys introducing guests to new destinations and
embracing the fruits of the location. Many of his guests have been very high profile clientele. Nick is trained in their additional
security and privacy needs.

He has the education, experience and miles to back this. This is reflected in the standard of a vessel in his care. He takes great
pride in this and believes it is a direct reflection of his skills. Another aspect of Captaining a yacht, is the management of its
crew. This team is the key to a smooth running vessel. Nick is proud of his track record in putting a strong team together and is part
of his leadership skills.
