The captain

A nomad of the seas.

I didn't set out with a plan. I set out with a boat and the wish to see further.

An engineer by education, I spent years inside conventional systems. The sea offered something else: a place where only what is real counts. No pretence, no posturing.

Since then, I have sailed from the English Channel to Gibraltar, from the Azores to the Irish Sea, from Dakar to the Caribbean. More than 30,000 nautical miles, and harbours few people have heard of.

SatoBoat was born from that road. Not from an office, not from a pitch deck: from a life on board.

Today I am setting out on a voyage around the world — and I would like to share part of it with you.

Engineer by education, sailor by passion.
