Meet Captain Paul Porter
Paul has had a love for life on the water since childhood—sailing, surfing, free-diving, and competing in kiteboarding. Growing up in a Swedish - American house hold in the Pacific Northwest created a lasting curiosity to explore beyond his home waters.
He began his career as a charter captain in 2014, leading crewed sailing experiences across Sweden, Thailand, Italy, Greece, Croatia, the British Virgin Islands. In 2016, he moved to the Virgin Islands as a full-time captain guiding all-inclusive dive and sailing charters throughout the USVI and BVI.
Each year, Paul returns to the Mediterranean with a focus on Greece and Italy. When the temperature heats up in Europe, he returns to his home waters in the Pacific Northwest for a summer of immersive sailing experiences aboard his meticulously rebuilt trimaran, Windy.
