About Christian Symonds

I'm happiest on the water and on or around boats

I have a lot of experience of different boats on inland, coastal or offshore.

All owners have a story and I love listening to them when they share the stories of their adventures on their boats.

What did you do before working with Boatshed?

I worked in healthcare as a clinical trainer

What attracted you to become part of the Boatshed team?

As a serial boat owner, I love the transparency of the Boatshed platform and the amount of information available to a prospective buyer, it's so easy to research your next boat!

Are you a motorboater or a sailor?

Both, I sold my last boat which was a Merry Fisher 1095 at the beginning of 2025 and now own a Honnor Marine Gaff Rigged Lugger which I'm restoring and getting ready for next season!

What is your most memorable boating experience?

Doing my first channel crossing in a force 8 on a Sigma 33OD, it took 18 hours, nightmare!
