My Primary Objective:
Career building position as Captain/Mate
(sailing or motor Yacht)
Since the age of six and after being propelled around the world on yachts,
I have been able to gain an extensive range of professional skills, covering all aspects of the running, managing and technically maintaining and refitting a yacht.
I enjoy being a host and to give the best possible service to all guests and to ensure that all onboard duties and other responsibilities are carried out safely and enthusiastically
by my Crew.
I am a good and organized administrator who takes his responsibilities seriously.
Precise budget planning and ship / Crew management are not new to me. Safety drills and crew training are practiced
I am not a mechanical engineer, or boat builder, but over the last 20 years working on yachts I have solved many technical and environmental challenges and now feel confident in both fields out at sea, on land or inside a shipyard.
In all these years of practical experience I have proved that I am more than capable of navigating a large yacht, undertaking a refit project or representing the owner on a new build project as well as acting as consultant.
After resuming my yachting background and knowledge, it is time to share my experiences with more crew members on a larger yacht and to build up my career in the Super Yacht industry. I am looking forward to share responsibilities in a friendly team environment. I am Happy to contribute my experiences and enthusiasm in a long term team position on a ocean-going Yacht.
Together with my wife Lily, we have proven to be a strong team.
Lily holds a University degree in hospitality and tourism. She is hard working and passionate about little details. Silver Service trained and of course a good deckhand and lovely nature to have on board. Guests and Owners always love her.
Together we can offer a great fund of experience which will be an asset to any yacht and owner.
I am an excellent team player and work to a high standard. I have strong leadership and communication skills and consider myself as a responsible and alert sailor, who is capable in taking a yacht anywhere around the globe safely.
