John Connolly

John has been with Seafarer since 2007, skippering flotillas in Croatia and Greece before skippering our cabin charter yacht in the Cyclades and the BVIs. He has been an RYA instructor since 2008, and is now responsible for training and recruitment for our overseas crews and is chief instructor for our RYA training centre in the Ionian. Outside of Seafarer, John doesn’t have time for hobbies at the moment, his twin 1 year old boys keep him busy enough! He is married, and met his wife on flotilla when she was his hostess in the Ionian. Favourite Destination: Ionian, Greece – Apart from beautiful islands and warm waters, after seasons as flotilla skipper and getting married on Ithaca, he says it feels like going home when he is there.
