Get in touch and describe your situation

Write via WhatsApp, email or the contact form on the site. You don't need to have everything figured out — just tell me what's on your mind: planning a voyage, reviewing your safety gear, buying a boat, or a nautical question you're not sure how to tackle.

We assess your query and agree on the format

I respond personally — no bots, no intermediaries. We discuss whether the advisory will be via WhatsApp, video call or email; how long it will take; and a fair price for what you need. Some questions are resolved in a quick exchange; others require a more in-depth session.

We carry out the advisory session

The session focuses entirely on your case: we analyse your route, your vessel, your equipment or the purchase you're considering. I ask precise questions, give you my honest professional judgment and answer your questions one by one. Not a generic script — real nautical expertise applied to your actual situation.

You receive a clear, actionable summary

When we finish, you get a summary of the key points: what to do, what to avoid, what to buy or how to prepare. No unnecessary jargon — just what you need to make good decisions at sea. And if a follow-up question comes up, I'm there to answer it.
