Nic holds RYA Yachtmaster and Oceanmaster certificates along with VHF DSC and STCW95 endorsements. He has sailed his whole life, cruising with family or racing with friends all over Europe and most recently the Caribbean and Mediterranean as a charter skipper. Although Nic loves to race he is equally happy cruising whilst fishing and whale watching. He also enjoys all watersports (snorkling, windsurfing and wakeboarding etc.) and diving, for which he has a PADI Rescue diver qualification. From the age of sixteen, Nic taught sailing and is always happy to instruct and pass any tips to his guests.
Sarah is a graduate of the Rosie Davies school of cookery and takes pleasure in creating appetising and beautifully presented dishes using local ingredients – below is a sample menu. Having sailed all her life cruising around the east coast of England, France and Holland and racing both dinghy and keel boats with Nic while competing in many championships, she has a passion for sailing and has over 16,000 nautical miles under her belt and holds an RYA Certificate of Competence and STCW95 endorsement. Sarah also enjoys scuba diving and has a PADI advanced open water qualification.
