Biography

The sea has always carried Yohan Bertrand and supported him in his projects. Present in good times and bad, it has kept him alive.
He is grateful for everything that water sports, the ocean and, of course, his loved ones bring him every day.
For several years now, the open air has continued to carry and transport him between the Emerald Coast and the turquoise waters of the Bay of Les Saintes.
He still has the luxury of being alive, so he will keep putting all his heart and all his breath into his projects.
May the wind carry him serenely, as it always has.
