Behind the sails is operations manager, Ricardo Ferreira who hails from Portugal. Ricardo was born close to the ocean and remains zealous about diving and marine life. His vast operational experiences include working in St. Maarten and Mozambique, leading a dive center and marine biology center, and managing extensive aqua activities on a private island in the Maldives.
