The sea has always been a part of me, since my childhood in Shavei Zion. I began competitive sailing, winning numerous competitions, including first place in the 1985 Maccabiah Games. Later, I sailed around the world as a skipper, experiencing the oceans and gaining invaluable sailing experience.
I continued to coach sailors in national and international competitions.
In 2003, I founded the VARDI VELA Sailing School, where I taught hundreds of responsible skippers their first steps at sea.
In 2010, I partnered with ISSA (the International Sailing School Association), to promote the field of sailing world wide.
Today, I teach and share my love for sailing through the Vardi Vela Cyprus Sailing School in Cyprus, where I also fulfilled my dream of sailing across all the world’s oceans.
