Timmo Elliott and Gemma Masferrer Gallart

Sailing Through the Excess pulls back the curtain on a world few ever glimpse, where billionaires, royals, and Hollywood icons drift between ports aboard floating palaces. Based on the true experiences of Timmo Elliott and brought to life by Gemma Masferrer's compelling storytelling, this memoir offers a rare, first-hand look behind the scenes of some of the choicest luxury yachts in the world-where the adventurer gives up the security of a cushy job back home to give in to the call of the wild.
Through untold stories of discretion, loyalty, ambition, and sacrifice, it explores what it really means to live and work in a world ruled by excess and secrecy.
This is not just a portrait of luxury; it's an unfiltered dive into one of the most elite and enigmatic environments on Earth-a never-ending journey of discovery that prepares one for a larger picture, the journey of life itself.
