My Journey
Hi, I’m Michèle!
Born and raised in Antibes—the beating heart of the yachting world—yachting isn’t just my profession; it’s in my DNA.
My father was a yacht captain and a founding member of the Professional Yachting Association, so you could say salt water runs in my veins.
For 17 years, I worked with a leading yacht management company, where I set up and led the Compliance department. I made sure every vessel was shipshape (literally) when it came to regulations and conventions, all while building strong partnerships with Flag and Class authorities.
Beyond compliance, I played a key role in implementing an online management system and app, making me a bit of a tech-whisperer when it comes to yacht software. If there’s a system out there, I’ll figure it out—fast.

My vision
I believe that a well-run yacht isn’t just about ticking boxes—it’s about creating an environment where crew feel safe, valued, and supported, and where guests can relax and enjoy the experience without a second thought.
How I can help
My goal is simple: to provide expert, hands-on consultancy that keeps yachts compliant, crews happy, and owners worry-free. Whether it’s safety, security, or ensuring smooth operations, I bring experience, practical solutions, and maybe even a little humor along the way.
Because at the end of the day, yachting should be about smooth sailing—in every sense of the word.
