First Mate / Deckhand – NICOLAS PINCIROLI (From December 17-24, 2023 & January 28, 2024 onwards)
A true adventurer of the sea and a lover of winds, Nicolas made his passion for kitesurfing a full time profession. He is an instructor in Wing Foil and Kitesurf and has visited the best kite-spot around the world. Nicolas set up a Kite School in his hometown of Villa Gesel, Argentina.
He has lived in Brazil, Italy and the Caribbean, where sailing and diving became his other two huge interests. As part of the crew, Nicolas combines his teaching spirit, contagious enthusiasm for an ocean lifestyle and friendly hosting which in-turn encourages guests to enjoy life as much as he does.
All crew members are a professional team who work extremely well together to ensure their guests charter vacation is completely seamless from start to finish!
First Mate / Deckhand – Maia Liaudat (From December 27 to January 27, 2024)
Hailing from Argentina, Maia has called Mexico home for over a decade. With a diverse professional background in advertising and communication, she has excelled as an executive producer and team leader. Maia’s passion for exploration takes her to new destinations, where she delights in connecting with people and immersing herself in their cultures.
A natural sportswoman and adventurer, Maia has a lifelong affinity for sailing, a cherished family tradition centered around one-design races. Over the past four years, she has embraced the open sea alongside her partner, Captain Matias, serving as a dedicated crew member.
Beyond the waves, Maia finds solace in the gentle strumming of the guitar, hosting dinners for friends, and engaging in enriching conversations. Her life story is a blend of professional prowess, seafaring adventures, and the warmth of shared moments with loved ones.
