Our experience with Thibaut was a wonderful time and too short, but we were on a schedule at the end of our 50th anniversary celebration and had to get at least one sail in with a local traditional Wharram Cat owner. He brought some very tasty fruits and juice to keep us refreshed as we toured around the lagoon, enjoying the sun go down. We shared sailing stories and boats we've enjoyed in the past. I hope we get a chance to sail together longer in the future. Our thanks for a lovely final taste of Tahiti before flying home. Highly recommend for a nice genuine knowledgeable experience.

Thibaut was an amazing captain who ensured we had a sublime experience. He went over and above and even facilitated a volleyball game in the middle of the Pacific Ocean! If you are looking for great time with sun and fun, book here. Thanks Thibaut! 10/10
