Andy has been a professional yacht skipper for the last 16 years and his experience includes many projects, from Formula-1 multi-hull sailing, to the restoration & management of a Classic 1908 sail-training cutter.

He spent 7 years working with Challenge Business running projects in Asia, America & Europe, as well as training crews for both the BT Global Challenge 1996 and 2000 races.

Andy then managed "Mission Antarctica" yacht operations, skippering the yacht to the Antarctic and South Georgia on numerous expeditions throughout 2000-2002. He organised the difficult challenge of the yacht’s logistics and operations for the many months they were based on the Antarctic peninsular. During this time the environmental campaign removed & recycled 1 000 tons of waste. This was to be the first time that Expedition Participants, from 19 countries worldwide, had been flown directly onto a yacht, based within the Antarctic.

Andrew has also worked in France and the UK with Ellen MacArthur and her Trimaran B&Q, Mike Golding in the lead up to the start of the Vendee Globe and in 2004 was Co-Skipper during the rescue of Virbac after her capsize mid-Atlantic during the Transat race. Andrew works closely with World Cruising Club and was part of the safety team inspecting the 220 boats in the 2004 ARC Transatlantic rally.

He is a specialist in marine and event photography, running "Andrew Dare Photography" holding over 20,000 worldwide images.

Andrew is currently sailing in Patagonia again with more Antarctic Expeditions lined up for 2008.
