I am a seasoned sailor with over 30 years of experience and multiple instructors certifications. For the past 20 years, I have have been a proud co-owner of the sailing school « Formation Nautique Quebec » where I have shared my passion for sailing with students of all levels. My extensive experience and dedication to teaching have helped countless individuals master the art of sailing.
