About Skip Andy

Skipper Andy Fitze is passionate about organizing seemingly impossible sailing expeditions. He is often drawn to the uppermost region of the northern hemisphere, both in summer and winter. Together with his crews, he braves not only freezing 20° below zero temperatures, snow and ice, but also hurricanes with winds of over 120km/h.

The most headwinds, however, he hasn't experienced on the boat. But naysayers just further assure him to leave the beaten paths and defy the odds.

Andy combines 25 years of leadership experience on land with 20 expeditions on the high seas. He stands for robust action and bold leadership by maverick.

In over 20 own expeditions he has sailed across all oceans and navigated over 40 countries to port. 

The bucket list of extreme destinations is still long. The beauty and superiority of nature are calling him for many more adventures. The next one is already awaiting: sailing across the North Sea with a 100-year-old sailing Viking boat.
