Description of Ben's sailboat
Hanse - 510 | 3 Cabins
Embark on our luxury 2024 Hanse 51ft Sailing Yacht, Divinity 1, sailing the Ionian Sea among the beautiful Greek islands with crystal clear waters. We are a family-owned business offering 7-day charters with a full time live-aboard Skipper. Divinity Sailing operates out of Greece, Corfu (based in Marina Di Gouvia). You can book online and check availability and secure your charter slot. The skipper of Divinity (Benjamin Oliver) is the son of a world-class professional windsurfer (Malcolm Oliver) who has been surrounded by water since birth! As a family, we all grew up on Hayling Island in the UK, where Windsurfing was invented! Skipper Benjamin has spent many years sailing and decided to obtain his Yacht Master Offshore certification (Commercially Endorsed by the RYA/MCA) with the world-renowned United Kingdom Sailing Academy (UKSA), which is based on the Isle of Wight. Benjamin spent 5 – 6 months at the sailing academy (UKSA) before venturing into long-distance sailing across the Atlantic on an 82-foot Super Maxi IOR Beneteau aluminium-hull racing-spec yacht (1988) from Spain, Santa Pola, to the Caribbean, Martinique, via the Grand Canaries, and Cape Verde. After nearly two years in search of the perfect sailing yacht for the European charter business, the 2024 Hanse 510 (51ft) was located in Croatia. After some upgrades Benjamin (with two crew) sailed from Croatia, Split to Malta via Italy to reflag Divinity with the Maltese flag with the status of commercial operation.

I’m a highly self-motivated individual that excels well under pressure. I focus great importance on the recognition by all crew members to be a team player. I have many years’ experience working across a multitude of business disciplines as an employer responsible for over 100 employees. I have gained valuable experience with the ability to adapt to changing environments at a moment’s notice. My maritime experience and career have spanned over 12 years beginning with Dinghy Sailing (Lasers), Power Boats, RIB’s and Sailing Yachts. My recreational sport of choice is Skydiving and achieved my Skydiving qualification in November 2020 as a fully licensed Skydiver. This sport is well known for its highly pressured environment where oneself is trained to react to changing situations at a moment’s notice, to ensure the safety of others and yourself, with little time to spare. We now have a sailing yacht business operating in Greece, Corfu offering 7 day charters with a dedicated Skipper. The charter business is Divinity Sailing.
