Business on a Boat
Strategy. Creativity. Impact.


Business on a Boat is an exclusive experience designed for leaders who need space to think, reset and reimagine their business without the noise of everyday demands.
Business on a Boat
Step aboard a luxury executive motor yacht in Split, Croatia and discover how a beautiful, uncluttered environment lifts decision-making, sparks creativity and ignites problem-solving.
When the scenery changes, so does your thinking. And when your surroundings are this extraordinary, breakthroughs come naturally.

I’m Chris Paddey, and I’ll be your host as we take time out together to solve your business challenges...

What I bring on board
As someone who has built, grown and exited my own business, after successfully integrating it into a global group, I have personal experience of the complex challenges business owners face.
My approach is different because my experience is unique. I bring the precision of a chartered engineer, the experience of a global board director and the pragmatism of an entrepreneur.
Business on a Boat is unlike any coaching, mentorship or development programme out there, giving you valuable one-to-one time with an experienced exit founder who will be wholly focused on you and your business.

Theme your trip
This is your trip and we will tailor it to suit your business style.
Here are three typical approaches:
Creative R&R
The environment is designed to unlock creativity, fresh thinking and new ideas. Start slowly, making the most of the luxurious setting and beautiful surroundings. When your mind and body are relaxed, your thinking becomes clearer and problem solving takes on a new energy and dynamic.
Work, Rest & Play
Balance structured sessions with restorative downtime. We’ll build our trip around a natural rhythm, giving time and space for highly focused in-depth discussion alongside relaxation to expand your creative thinking.
Business Boost
If you prefer to work first and play later, we’ll get started as soon as you step on board. Our time together will begin with a laser-focused deep dive into specific business challenges. Together we’ll develop clear, implementable solutions, benefiting from the clarity that comes from ocean views and calm waters.
