Crew Info:
Captain Florent Ruiz began his career in the Super Yacht industry over 20 years ago. Initially he was involved in yacht building and refitting and held many other positions, as his skills and responsibilities grew. After two years of living on his own boat in the South of France, Florent decided to make sailing his profession. He began to work on larger sailing yachts and delivering new yachts for several yacht builders. Soon after acquiring my C200 GT license, Florent joined the catamaran S/Y CILIAM for an incredible season in Asia - where we sailed throughout Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.
He sailed to Mexico to visit family, and then returned to Europe with a new boat in mind: taking command of the amazing sailboat SAVARONA. After a long, very detailed and extensive refit, Florent is delighted to be sailing again with guests to show them the beauty of the oceans and wonderful charter destinations.
Florent is a welcoming captain and host who always puts security on board as his top priority. In his words: “a positive attitude, discretion and responsibility are the qualities I choose to live by. I make it my goal to ensure that all guests will enjoy a truly great experience aboard S/Y SAVARONA.”
