Philippe has been passionate about water in all its forms since his earliest childhood. Sailing, of course, but also fishing, diving...
He first started sailing on the family boats, but his intense appetite for discovery and exploration pushed him to think bigger and further afield.
At the end of the 80s, as a photojournalist specializing in travel and the outdoors, he worked with specialized sailing magazines and discovered numerous destinations in the Atlantic, the Caribbean, the Pacific and the Mediterranean.
At the end of the 90s, he moved to the South Pacific and set up a saltwater sports fishing business. He sailed in this part of the world for over 20 years, on various yachts including some of his own sailboats.
Back in Europe, rather than continue with the French certifications, he decided to take RYA and MCA certifications.
He travels to deliver boats, has worked with exploration-seeking private owners and also with charter companies in the Pacific, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the Caribbean and the Arctic.
He's committed to the safety and comfort of everyone on board and will be delighted to welcome you abooad ASTROLABE, the perfect yacht to show you the most beautiful anchorages during this tailor-made program.
