The company was established by George Tsigkaris and Nikos Antonopoulos.
George Tsigkaris
After graduating from the technological institute of Patras in 2005 I decided to get involved in tourism and specially yachting following my familly’s tradition.
I have started my career in yachting in 2006. After working as a technician in the Athens base of Athenian yachts until 2009 and then as a base manager in Athenian yachts base in Lefkas until 2011 when I started my own company.
Anima for me is my third yacht and after spending more than 15 years in this work I have the experience and the will to offer you the sailing vacation you deserve.
Nikos Antonopoulos
Graduating from the Merchant Marine Academy of Oinousses Chios, School of Captains in 2001, studying Shipping and Transport Management in the Shipping & Business Education Collage, Bachelor Degree (BSc) in 2004, Postgraduate Certificate in Maritime Operations in Maritime Technology from University of Liverpool John Moores in 2009.
Have been worked aboard merchant vessels since 1998 with nine (9) years of total seagoing experience, three (3) of them as a Merchant Navy Captain (Class A) aboard Oil Tankers I must admit my affection for the sea in all sea states.
I had my first taste in yachting in 2006 which I loved and found out that had a calming psychotherapy effect on me with a dose of adventure that wakes up mind and soul.
That is the feeling I like to share with all of you who will have the opportunity to experience this sailing journey for the first time.
My dear friend George and I, we assure you that your expectation for a joyful and relaxing sailing vacation will be fulfilled.
