About Me

Have an awesome charter experience with a captain who is also a licensed commercial pilot, serial entrepreneur, fluent in French, English, a little bit of Spanish and Mandarin, who travels the world constantly !

Fun, passionate, entertaining and safety are priorities.

For more details on payment and refunds, contact your captain. See the booking FAQs for general charter information.

I am looking forward to serving as your captain.

Oh! And yes, Groover is my real name ;)

Have a great summer !!
