About Alex (Written by Taru)


For natural reasons, this is indeed one of the greatest challenges a human can take on in life. Luckily we have Alex thirty years of experience of sailing on board and I trust him 110% to take us anywhere through any conditions - as safe as possible.

He's working full time in his own mastering studio as a mastering engineer for the music industry and naturally the other great passion of his is the sailing. He started to sail at the age of six with his uncle in France. Around the age of nine he moved with his mother to the west coast of Africa (Angola) where he started to sail the optimists. Later on he passed on to the 420, Hobie cat 14 and 16 and all the way since back then, sailing has played a big role in his life.

When he moved back to France he bought himself an Edel 5, then Jouet 760 and after a Dufour 31. As his main priority was to have a strong blue water cruiser, we have now ended up with the beautiful Hallberg Rassy 352 in which I, myself, have been given my first sailing classes ever - and hooked.

Alex has The Yacht Master Offshore license through Royal Yachting Association sailing school Puerto Portals.
