Tim Thubron
With over 20 years' experience sailing keelboats, Tim is
a qualified RYA/MCA YachtMaster Offshore skipper and RYA Cruising
Instructor as well as holding a BSc (Hons) Degree in
Marine Navigation. Tim has also been part of the Selection
Committee for British Teams in the Rolex Commodores' Cup.
He has twice sailed across the Atlantic and raced in many
offshore races around the world including The Rolex Fastnet, Rolex
Middle Sea Race, the Round Ireland Race and the Caribbean 600.
Although his real love is for the pace and excitement of inshore
racing, and has skippered for sailing Logic in the Spring Series,
Winter Series, Dartmouth, IRC Nationals, Cowes Week, Round the
Island and many corporate regattas.
His experience and naturally calm nature make him a top racing
skipper, dedicated to the race but also ensuring that each and
every crew member feels involved, plays an active role - and leaves
the boat knowing more than when they stepped on board.
Yacht racing is his passion and he been working as a
professional sailor now for 15 years. As skipper or
tactician, he has won his class in the Rolex Fastnet
Race, Cowes Week, Cork Week, Antigua Sailing Week, Heineken St
Maarten Regatta and the Round the Island Race.
Tim will be skippering a number of events with Sailing Logic
this year - so if youo'd like the opportunity to sail with him -
