Quick Learner & Good Company

I recently had the pleasure of spending a couple of weeks with Laurent moving his boat from Sibenik (Croatia) to Corfu (Greece). After a couple of days waiting for a weather window we opted to cross over to Italy and back over to Corfu, a total of around 400nm that took us about a week, including a couple of overnight sails. While Laurent was relatively new to sailing, he picked things up quickly and confidently, to the point that on his night shifts I was able to rest knowing I was in good hands. We faced a couple of challenges along the way and he handled them rationally and calmly. If you get a chance to sail with him take it, hes a super chill funny guy and his boat is beautiful, well setup and easy to sail for its size. I'd happily sail with him again and look forward to buddy boating with him in the future later this year.
