Merging Sailing and Climbing

Sailing and climbing are activities that complement each other perfectly and share common values:

cooperation and mutual support, overcoming the physical and mental self, sport in close contact with nature.

A different way of travelling

Living on a sailing boat and traveling with the wind. Getting in touch with yourself by climbing higher, only with your own skills.

Getting aware of the rhythm and constraints of nature to understand and play with it better.

Savouring the fulfillment of a face to face with wild landscapes on land and at sea.

Sailing as climbing hide the promises of a different journey.

The Team

Andrea Zecca

Born in 1985, Italian expat for a long time (in Germany, Spain, then in France). I discovered sailing and climbing more than 10 years ago, during my years of studies in Barcelona, and since then these two passions have not given up on me. It was at that time that I first imagined Vertigo Blue. I ended up giving up a scientific career after getting my Phd to go learn sailing in Corsica. Since then, I have multiplied the trainings (sailing, kayaking, climbing).

Sarah Marquina

Born in 1990, French. I studied cinema in Montpellier. I had dreamed of boats all my childhood but I didn’t really rediscover the sailing until 2015, during a course in Bonifacio. A year later, I quit my job to go learning sailing in corsica.
My fear of the void didn’t predestinated me to join a climbing project. But passion must be contagious, because I’m finally gone for!
