Sarah Diggle-Whitlock - Founder
Sarah started on Superyachts in 1999, after just six months she secured her first Chief Stewardess position. 10 years later Sarah had accomplished 8 Atlantic crossings & worked on some of the most prestigious motor & sail yachts in the world, both private & charter.
Moving ashore, she worked as a Charter Yacht Broker, Yacht Manager & Senior Recruiter for Superyachts. This gave Sarah the multi faceted skills set & contact base to work with the leading companies within the Superyacht industry.
Teaching interior courses was a natural progression, training in classrooms, academies, onboard Superyachts & now providing online courses.
Sarah has now been teaching for 18 years, all over the globe, from private islands, residences, private jets, onboard Superyachts & now offering her online Introduction to Superyachts & Yachting Life from her home in Yorkshire.
In her spare time, away from teaching, Sarah loves spending time with family & friends. After years of working in the sun, she loves nothing more than sticking on her wellies and walking her dogs in the Yorkshire countryside along with her daughter.
‘I have had an incredible career, allowing me to see the world, learn about new cultures & enrich my life with so many fantastic, life changing experiences. I love inspiring, advising & teaching others from all over the world to find their own wanderlust in this industry.
