ABOUT THE CAPTAIN AND OWNER Knowing the boss with whom you are going to share your leisure time is one of the most important questions, so I introduce myself: My name is Didac and I was born in Barcelona 39 years ago. I am a yacht captain and professional skipper in addition to being a technical mechanical industrial engineer from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. I have 4 SCTW specialty professional certificates: basic safety training, GMDSS restricted operator, rescue boat training and initial specific health training. I have been a skipper since 2009, I have participated in numerous coastal and high altitude regattas and I am very knowledgeable about the Catalan coast and the Balearic Islands. I speak Spanish, Catalan, English and French and I combine my passion for the sea with traveling, having been to more than 40 countries and 4 continents. My dream is to one day sail around the world. I am professional, that means that I dedicate 100% of my time to sailing and personally taking care of the sailboat, both aesthetically and mechanically. Being an owner, I am interested in the smallest detail and after each reservation, I clean and disinfect the sailboat, both inside and on deck, guaranteeing a healthy Covid-Free space. I prepare all reservations in advance, to the taste of my clients, studying the meteorology in great detail and offering advice so that the experience is extraordinary. I fully insure the sailboat and its passengers with Pantaenius, the most serious nautical insurance underwriting company with the best coverage in the nautical sector. Some of my strengths are flexibility, empathy and passion for what I do. The LGTBIQ+ community is very welcome on this sailboat If you have a pet and would like to bring it on board, we are a 100% pet friendly sailboat. My promise is that you will have a great time whatever your plan is and I invite you to read my reviews so that you can see real opinions from other clients who have already sailed with me.
