MASSIMILIANO RIPAMONTI

In 2013 I crossed the Atlantic Ocean starting from Lanzarote and reaching Antigua (3100 nautical miles, 21 days). In dicember 2016 I took part in an Ocean Skipper Training Course in Lanzarote (1 week, 50 nautical miles).

As a sail instructor I have always volunteered to teach people with disabilities to sail on boat both at the sea and at the lake. By the end of 2017 I started my collaboration with LNI at Dervio in order to support people with disabilities while sailing or racing.

I took part in the following regattas: Giraglia, Barcolana, S.Maarten Heineken Regatta, Antigua Sailing Week, Winter League Como Lake, West Liguria Championship. Roles: co-skipper/bowman/tailer.

Since 2012, as a sailing instructor, I have been collaborating with two sailing schools Horca Myseria and Orza Minore (holidays destinations: Sardinia, Portovenere, Como lake) during my spare time. For me, the most important conditions when I teach are safety at sea, enjoyment and didactics for my students.

Since 2012 I have been working as a skipper during summer holidays with Orza Minore and Horca Myseria in Sardinia, Egadi Islands and Porquerolles Islands. • As of 2016 I have been collaborating with WaterTribe • In 2017 I started my collaboration with Yacht Club Como

I have been sailing since 1999

In 2014 I crossed the Pacific Ocean from Tahiti to Australia (Cairns, 3900 nautical miles, 29 days).
