Sales Manager
Raoul van der Werf
Originating from Belgium, I graduated in 2004 from the Hotelschool, specializing in restaurant management. Fluent in Dutch and French, I also have working knowledge of English, German, and Spanish.
Sailing has fascinated me since spending every summer in the South of France as a child. Over time I've developed an in depth knowledge of the stunning Côte d'Azur, from Saint-Tropez to the Italian border and, since 2015, this breath-taking coastal region has been my permanent home.
During the pandemic, with all hospitality venues closed, I used the opportunity to deepen my understanding of boats, spending a lot of time on sailing yachts and motorboats
As BDA sales manager, I bring my experience, multilingual skills, and unwavering passion to help you find the boat that matches your desires. I look forward to helping you embark on an unforgettable boating journey.
