Alexandros Bouzakis

Skipper

Hailing from Chania, Greece, Alexandros’ passion for sailing was evident from a young age. In 1994 he graduated from the prestigious Lakis Kyriakidis sailing school, earning his open-seas skipper license. In 1995, Alexandros embarked on a captivating 5-month voyage across the Aegean and Ionian seas, covering an impressive distance of 1500 miles. This experience solidified his love for sailing and ignited his desire to explore further. Following his adventurous journey, Alexandros made his way to Zakynthos, Greece, in 1997. Since then, he has been captivating visitors as a skipper on daily cruises. With unwavering dedication and respect for the sea, Alexandros ensures unforgettable experiences for his guests. In 2006, Alexandros fulfilled his lifelong dream by becoming the skipper and co-owner of Soliton, an awe-inspiring 49 ft. Atlantic Sailing vessel. With Soliton as his trusted companion, he continues to craft unforgettable sailing experiences, combining his expertise as a skipper with the thrill of exploration. When the sailing season winds down, Alexandros embraces new challenges by organising and participating in vessel transportation. In 2001, he undertook an epic 1700-mile journey, transporting a sailboat from Zakynthos, Greece, all the way to Bremen, Germany including the river channel system. In 2003, he circumnavigated the picturesque island of Sicily, covering 1100 miles from Zakynthos to Italy. These feats showcase Alexandros’ skill and determination on the open waters. In 2015, Alexandros embarked on his most audacious adventure yet – crossing the Atlantic from Athens, Greece, to Martinique in the Caribbean. This monumental journey spanned a staggering distance of 5200 miles, further solidifying Alexandros’ reputation as a seasoned sailor. In recognition of his exceptional skills and dedication, Alexandros was awarded the prestigious “Master of Yacht” license from the esteemed ISSA International Sailing School in 2016. This accolade attests to his commitment to continuous learning and his profound understanding of the art of sailing.
