Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am 39 year old, for 4 years I have skippered my own yacht around Atlantic coast and Mediterranean sea. I loved my full time love on-board, but decided I am too young to live in harbors indefinitely just yet, so dividing my time between working, travelling on land and sailing on long passages with sailors I can help with my experience. I have experience with heavy weather, tidal water from Irish sea, Atlantic coast including inner Bay of Biscay, sailed along Italian coast and Messina strait in winter months, crossed the Pacific and looking for more offshore passages to enjoy the sailing time. I work remotely on my computer, with flexibility to have free time as long as I like and can relocate around the world on short notice. I am well experienced with all parts if live-aboard sailing live. Navigation, weather, sail handling, piloting, communication, maintenance, stocking the galley and managing water, electricity, gas and diesel. I had good experience with teaching fresh crew handling the boat and sailing skills. I understand the captains responsibility and respect the decisions regarding all aspects of boat live, navigation and boat handling.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I have studied electrical engineering, spent many years in IT business where I got my good technical skills, analytic thinking and improvisation nature. I never get seasick and once I've spent 6 hours fixing engine, in 2m swell with no wind to help steady the boat. In the end wind picked up and engine started again.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

visit remote placesseek adventuretravel

I love time at the sea under sails. During 21 days between Galapagos and Marquesas I have enjoyed every sunrise. I enjoy the feeling of closing on new coast and entering harbors and anchorages for the first time.
