I’m an experienced racing and cruising skipper. My track record as a mentor and leader both in my professional and sailing endeavours stands for itself.

I pride myself on my sailing skills, being a clear communicator, and on my ability to calm and clear even when things are a little “interesting” or when the elements or fate have thrown a curve ball at us.

I am meticulous about the preparation of my vessels whether it is for racing or cruising. I enjoy combining my knowledge of boats with an ability to adapt and compromise as the situation and vessel’s systems may require.

Most of all, I like to maintain a fun and relaxed vibe on board.

Boat descriptionEvenstar is a very well appointed Hallberg Rassy 53. She has been professionally maintained and has just had a refit in NZ before embarking on her current Pacific adventures. No expense has been spared on ensuring she has the highest levels of safety, comfort and convenience. Those that are familiar with the background of the Hallberg Rassy marque will appreciate the provenance of the vessel, and can be assured that she has been maintained to the standard one would expect of a HR.

Pacific Crossing with Steve

I sailed with Steve on his HallbergRassy53 from Tahiti to Fiji in September 2022. The boat is in excellent condition and fully equipped with the best you need on a long ocean passage. Steve is one of the most reliable captains I sail with in regards to his sail-trimming skill (permorfance vs safety), mecanics skills, social and living together skill, and he is a excellent communicator. All crew are included in all the sailing tasks (navigation, forecasting, repair, manoeuvre, maintenance, cooking, cleaning etc.) on a same level as he is. Above all, he is very safety minded but take the best of his vessel-performance. As a women-sailor, I felt 100% safe as Steve always was stable, respectful and open-minded. It was lots of fun scuba-diving with the sharks in the Cook Islands, singing and playing guitare on the deck and cooking best food ever on the boat ! Highly recommanded, feel free to contact me for further details on our pacific passage. I hope I can sail again together with Paul and Steve !
