Jeremy Bagshaw - Delivery Skipper | Speaker | Sailor
I have over 200,000 nautical miles experience, with more than 90% as Skipper, on a large variety of yachts in some of the most treacherous waters on the planet. This experience has been gained, not in an accelerated training course, but through putting in many hard miles, learning from some of the best yachtsmen in the country.
I am qualified to SAS Yachtmaster Ocean level.
Delivery skipper, speaker, boatbuilder
Jeremy has extensive offshore sailing experience, including solo circumnavigation and yacht deliveries. He participated in the Golden Globe Race, a grueling solo, nonstop, unassisted around-the-world sailing race that follows the traditions of the original 1968 event.
Beyond racing, Jeremy is also a delivery skipper and crew/owner coach, helping sailors refine their skills and confidence at sea.
Additionally, he is documenting his boat-building project, a Lyle Hess Falmouth Cutter 34 named Mina, which he shares through his blog.
