About Us & Our Yacht
Emma Claire
Emma Claire is our beautiful Italian designed ocean going Grand Soleil Yacht that has competed in many offshore events.
It is an extremely comfortable, eight berth yacht with a spacious saloon.
Emma Claire is run by Chris and his wife Bryony.
Chris
Chris has over 5 decades of experience in all aspects of sea going from dinghys to ocean going events, resulting in a very successful racing career.
Over the last 28 years he has also been involved with the RNLI, and is the Coxswain of the Salcombe lifeboat.
Over many years of a maritime background, he has built up valuable experience and can pass this on with ease and benefit all those onboard, from tying knots to advanced navigation.
He is a commercially endorsed Yachmaster holding all the relevant casualty care and sea survival qualifications.
Bryony
Bryony grew up in Salcombe and has always loved sailing and boating. She is an experienced chef, and owned and ran a successful catering business in Gloucestershire before moving back to Devon 10 years ago.
She now runs a B&B where you might consider staying for a night or two before or after your sail.
