He embodies the quintessence of calm and assurance, even in the most delicate situations. Laurent always demonstrates an exceptional mastery not only of sailing, but also of manoeuvring, which he executes with precision. His ability to efficiently assist, carry out and supervise repairs, maintenance and regular service operations guarantees reliability and safety.
When Laurent is not on board, he likes practising Water ski, Snowboard, playing drum and traveling
