SARAMIMI (Winter)

My name is Ivan Shapira, captain of the Saramimi catamaran,
My life has always been linked to the sea, since childhood I started sailing in OPTIMIST, my love for sailing awoke when I was only eight years old, with my family we used to go on vaca- tion to a town by the sea, in this beautiful place it awoke in me the passion for candles and the sea.
I have been jumping through different categories of boats, Laser, Hobby Cat, Sailboats, cata-
marans and even Windsurfing.
These last 20 years my life has been dedicated solely to the sea in a professional way.
At the age of 18 I started working as a professional sailing instructor in a sailing school, in this school I rose to become director.
I founded my own sailing school, where I trained students for several years, combining teaching with competition in sailboats of different lengths and categories.
RYA YachtMaster Offshore Certification
I have made ocean crossings, sailing several continents.
All this experience has enabled me to develop a deep passion and respect for the sea, I consi- der myself a prudent, cautious person with resources to face navigation with maximum sa- fety.
I am used to living with the clients who visit us on their vacations, I am participative and always willing to teach the handling of the sails to whoever wants it and try to breathe a good atmosphere on board.
Music is my other hobby, I sing and play the guitar, so if you dare bring your instrument and we will enjoy the musical vibrations on board the Saramimi catamaran.


Chef: Abigail Soares
My name is Abigail Soares, of Spanish nationality, chef of the Saramimi catamaran.
In my professional career I have been incorporating experiences into my curriculum, although my beginnings have not been related to the sea, a few years ago I discovered it and I am ent- husiastic about it.
My training and work beginnings, I trained in hairdressing and studied personal and corporate consulting.
I have always been fond of cooking and I had the opportunity to work in a beach restaurant, where I acquired my knowledge in the kitchen from very good professionals.
The cuisine that I practice and the one that I really feel most comfortable with is Mediterra- nean food.
This past season I have been embarked on catamarans of different lengths in which I have been hired to attend the kitchen.
I like life on board, this year I made my first crossing of the Atlantic between Euro and BVI.
I have worked with the captain on many occasions, we have known each other for years, we are a team that will make your life on board easy.

“In life there are three things that make you dream with your eyes open: love, music and the sea”
