My name is Tim Geisler, and I am the founder of Nautilus Sailing. Nautilus Sailing is an international sailing school that helps people pursue and embark on their sailing journeys and dreams.

We specialize in what is known as week-long live-aboard courses, intensive, immersive experiences where students learn to sail and operate a yacht in an exotic destination. At the moment we run courses in 6 stunning destinations; Tahiti, Mexico, Bahamas, Grenadines, Mallorca, and Croatia.
