My nautical journey began with the Optimist class, and over the years, I've navigated my way up to the grand tall ships. Today, I'm the proud owner of the wooden ketch "Aprilia" a beautiful vessel designed by Arvid Laurin happily moored in the sunny harbor of Licata, South Sicily. When I'm not enjoying the Mediterranean breeze aboard Aprilia, I'm busy with my company, specializing in yacht delivery and boat transportation around the globe. Whether it's a fast, cross Ocean yacht delivery or a more elaborate maritime expedition, I've got it covered. Join me in celebrating the joys of the sea and the adventures that come with it!
