Bertrand Jacques
Member since February 2026
Pireas, Greece
- Background
- Bertrand is a seasoned sailor and a skilled technician whose passion for the sea began early at the French Sailing School of Rosbras-Brigneaud in Brittany. A boat owner originally based in Nieuwpoort, Belgium, he spent many years perfecting his technique and building experience across the North Seas, sailing from France to the Netherlands, from Belgium to the British Isles, and from Germany to Scandinavia. In 2019, Bertrand undertook a major voyage from Belgium to Greece aboard his own yacht, crossing the North Sea, the Atlantic coast, France, Spain, Portugal, Gibraltar, the Balearic Islands, Sardinia, Sicily, and Crete. Since settling, he has worked as a professional skipper in Greece for seven years. He holds the highly regarded RYA Yachtmaster Offshore with Commercial Endorsement, along with Belgian and French licenses. As a great connoisseur of the marine elements, which he respects in order to better master them, Bertrand is known for prioritizing safety and composure onboard, without ever hesitating to face the wind’s vagaries with determination when circumstances demand it.
- Techniques
- I am passionate about authentic Greece, its traditions, and its culture. I have always favored the perfect balance between great sailing and the discovery of places that truly breathe the soul of a country. My main focus is comfort and safety onboard. I am extremely attentive to weather and navigation conditions. I love to sail safely, but I do not fear facing the wind and sea with tenacity and determination.
