CAPTAIN NIKOLAS

His involvement with sailing began at a very young age and at the age of nine he started competing in the optimist sailing class. His passion for the sea led him to offshore yacht racing, where he has been competing the last years. His career in sailing started as crew on offshore deliveries both in Greece and abroad and progressed to a permanent crew position on a number of very impressive superyachts, but his love for sailing led him to pursue a career as a professional sailboat skipper.

His sociable and pleasant character gives him the ability to make people feel at ease near him, and his knowledge and skills provide a sense of security to his guests.
