Yacht for Charter
INFINITY NINE

Captain Arnaud de Battisti is an experienced sailor and a qualified captain with a Master 500 and a maritime career spanning over 15 years, on motor and sailing vessels. He is very receptive to guests’ wants and needs and is looking forward to welcoming guests on board. Captain Arnaud is used to sailing all year round with his wife Geraldine, who can endorse different job positions onboard, from Chief Stewardess to First Officer. The two of them are permanent crew on yachts and have always pleased their Owners and Guests with their deep involvement and care towards the yacht, crew, and passengers onboard. Arnaud has an extensive knowledge of the areas he has cruised, from the Mediterranean, to the Caribbean, Cuba, US West coast, and French Polynesia. He has always managed to respond to his guests' requests with great attention and devotion. Arnaud and Geraldine were recruited directly by the Owner of Infinity Nine, who immediately liked their way of handling the yacht he was chartering during summer 2014. From then a long-lasting story began, and a trusting relationship led to the current amazing Team and the building of the brand new and amazing explorer looking yacht: Infinity Nine.

Geraldine grew up on her parent’s sailing yacht and is a “pearl of the sea”. She has made her way in the yachting industry since the age of 17, and her first professional contract was given to her on Captain Arnaud’s motor yacht in 2011. Throughout her 12 years of yachting career, she has developed many skills and sea time. She is a helpful person, with very sharp attention to detail when it comes to onboard organization and the wellbeing of the Guests. In many occasions she took over the position of delivery mate onboard motor and sailing yachts with Arnaud in between seasons, doing both the Atlantic and Pacific crossings. Geraldine is also a certified yacht Captain (Master 200), but also certified as a wine taster, for Silver Service, and as a yacht interior building manager. At the cross road of choosing her position onboard INFINITY NINE, Geraldine naturally decided to fully focus on the interior organization, helping with deciding on the layout of spaces and decoration. Both Geraldine and Arnaud had a major position in helping achieve the Owner’s dream to have his first custom built yacht. This “dream team” is the yacht's greatest asset and will make their time onboard tailor made and unforgettable.
