Recently selected as a Henri-Lloyd ambassador, Chris Dickinson is a passionate and seasoned sailor who holds a remarkable, lifelong connection with the sea.
Spending time on fishing trawlers throughout the nineties, since 2012 Chris has dedicated himself to mastering the art of sailing. He sails year-round along Scotland’s stunning west coast aboard his boat named “Miss Markey”, an Oceanis 35, named after his late mother lost her battle with breast cancer in 2020.
Chris has built a strong and engaged community on Instagram as he showcases his new life on the water. He is doing a fantastic job at raising the profile of the sport and tells his story in an authentic, humbling, yet inspiring way. We are proud to support Chris and his inspirational life on the water with our Dynamic sailing range.
