Instructor

I started my sailing adventure with inland cruises, exploring Masuria, which gave rise to a great passion for water, wind and the lifestyle that sailing gives. The beginning of sea expeditions is primarily the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. It was the northern seas of Europe that shaped me as a sailor and as a person.

However, the last few years have definitely been the warm waters of the Mediterranean, Croatia and Greece have become a second home, and sailing a way of life.

After sailing over 40,000 nautical miles, I am very happy to share my knowledge and spread my passion for sailing.

Certificates: RYA Yachtmaster Offshore, PZÅ» Yacht Captain, LRC, STCW

Your opinion matters

The atmosphere on the ship is so comfortable and friendly that time passes faster than you would like. The skipper not only does his job but also makes you feel like part of the crew and gain additional experience. I will definitely repeat my trip and I will gladly sail to new places with Alex.

I was with Alex on a training cruise to JSM. I highly, highly recommend him. He is a very experienced person despite his young age. I learned more practice from him in a week than during several sea cruises I had participated in before.
