Boris is a professional sailor living in Germany. Boris has completed three laps around the world, one of them non-stop, and will soon be attempting this challenge single handed for the 2020 Vendée Globe. Boris lives and breathes the ocean and when he is not on the water he can usually be found in our office working on the next campaign, looking at weather maps, press articles, bills and all the rest in order to arrange the next adventure.

Pierre is a Monaco born sailor and co-skipper of Team Malizia which he founded in 2016. Pierre’s love of the ocean is clear in his dedication to the Malizia Ocean Challenge. Pierre wants to bring the oceans to schools and using our race boat as a tool to do this fits perfectly.

Will is a 26-year-old experienced offshore sailor who studied oceanography at University in the UK, combining his two biggest passions in learning about the ocean and sailing across it. Will’s job is to sail the boat with Boris and to work on making the boat go as fast as possible.

Stuart has over 16 years’ experience in running racing yachts (The Ocean Race, Vendee Globe, Barcelona world race). Stuart’s main job is to fix any issues with the boat and to organise the team of boat builders and engineers to ensure that she is ready to sail in time for our races.
