About me

I made an old dream come through in 2017, as my son was able to manage is own life properly. Two transats later as a crew, I'm proud of myself although I still have a lot to learn before becoming a good captain. But with your help, I'll make it! Soon I'll learn mecanics and continue to study theory (weather, etc). Last spring as a crew, I accompanied a group to deliver three boats from the Bahamas to Burlington. First I was on a 37 feet. I finish the trip on a 42. Each time alone with the captain. I did well.
Usually, captains prefer to let the women at the wheel and in the kitchen. I can do both as a pro but more. I have to get the rest at the perfect level. I'm based in Quebec and hope to sail with you soon!
