For me, the fun of chartering Voyager is that it brings me in contact with interesting people, from around the world, who very often become my good friends.

I sail Voyager single handed, so if you want to just sit back and relax you’re free to do so. But if you’d like a hands-on experience you’re welcome to help me trim the sails and take the helm. If you don’t know the ropes, I’ll be happy to show you the art of sailing.

Creating the right ambience on board and making sure that everyone is having a good time is very important to me and is one of the challenges I enjoy.

I love to be close to nature and I believe that the article "Cruising Brazil’s Coast" by Emily Paulsen in the May 1995 issue of Yachting Magazine describes so well what sailing on Voyager is all about. Check it out if you are interested in learning more.

JOB:I have a Ph.D. in Solid State Physics and manage to divide my time between research projects and sailing tours. It’s a great way to enjoy both.

HOBBY: Music is an important part of my life and I love to get together with my friends to play blues and Brazilian music. I studied violin but now play piano, electric bass and drums. I sing too, but only in the shower. Voyager has a great collection of CD’s that help create a relaxed and happy mood, or you can bring your own favorites.
