Hello everyone,
My name is Will Nicholls
I started sailing from age 5 with my Dad in a Mirror dinghy. Started sailing by myself at around 8 years old in an Optimist dinghy as I developed my passion for sailing. I then began competing in regional, national and world events.
As I got older (16) I wanted to share my passion for sailing whilst also earning some money in the summer so I became an RYA Dinghy Instructor and started working regularly for Hayling Island Sailing Club. I also did some morning and evening ferry shifts for the local moorings at HISC.
By the time I got to 18 my passion for dinghy sailing had transitioned into an addiction to windsurfing as it was more of a thrill for me, especially as I was no longer doing sailing competitions yet still needed to get out on the water as much as I could. After becoming instantly hooked on windsurfing I again wanted to pass on my passion for such an amazing sport and became a windsurfing Instructor. This in turn lead me to getting my first job for Ocean Elements (Greece) as a water-sports instructor teaching both sailing and windsurfing. I would also do my own private water-sports coaching whenever I could. I later did another season for OE but this time in one of my favourite places, Vasiliki (Greece) which is known for its ideal windsurfing conditions.
My 2020 summer season will again be in Vass working with Wildwind.
I am currently making water sports content to try to help people interested in starting to windsurf, sail or paddle-board or simply want to improve the skills they already have. Thanks for taking the time to consume my content.
