Captain Rolf

Meet Rolf, a Viking at heart from the stunning fjords of Norway. With an undying love for sailing, he's dedicated to sharing the thrill of the open sea with others. Nothing brings Rolf more joy than seeing the excitement on someone's face as they raise their first sail. After a day of adventure, he savors dropping anchor in a peaceful bay, enjoying a feast prepared by the onboard chef.

With over 15,000 miles of experience and extensive navigation skills, he has become adept at handling vessels and ensuring the safety and comfort of passengers. Rolf possesses a knack for problem-solving, qualities that have proven invaluable in his role as a captain.
In addition to his sailing endeavours, Rolf has also worked in the Adriatic Sea, gaining valuable experience in crew management, vessel maintenance, and delivering exceptional customer service.
