About Us

Bringing you and the ocean together again

Nikolaus and his team are hands-on yacht masters, sailing tutors, diving instructors and international boat deliverers.

There’s no ocean they haven’t sailed and between them they’ve clocked up decades of experience in skippering, racing, diving and technical surveying.

They have exactly the kind of skill set to help you dial down the hassle and turn up the adventure on your next sea trip.
