Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Greetings Everyone,

I currently reside in Florida and I am interested in gaining experience in any capacity aboard any type of vessel starting January 2023. I would love to be able to utilize my scuba/freediving/snorkeling skills with guests or fellow crew to enjoy the ocean and its beauty.

I have over 10 years of hospitality experience from serving, bartending, catering and prep cooking. I have deep love of natural wine and viticulture. I grew up cruising and fishing in Southern California and have traveled a bunch scuba diving and snorkeling. I look forward to gaining experience in the yachting/cruising world.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

My dream is to travel and sail all of the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, India, New Zealand and Australia, sailing, smiling, experiencing, and learning as much as possible. Eventually I would like to dive the Red Sea and return to Europe where I once lived and crew in Turkey and the Mediterranean. I very much enjoy getting to know people from all walks of life and sharing in the human experience.

My passions are being at sea or in the ocean, snorkeling, diving, crewing, you name it. I enjoy the arts, films, shooting underwater video, photography.

I love to work hard and see a job a well done. I love to dive and have my Rescue Diver certification. I have dived in many places in the world and look forward to training to get my full cave certification soon in addition to my freediving instructor certification.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experienceshare charter costsvisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamearn moneygain experiencelearn to sailsustainable traveltravel

I want to crew on many different types of vessels in order to gain as much experience as possible to make myself a more valuable and competent crew member. I want to continue to see as much of the world as possible, crewing, diving, working, and meeting new people. I want to enrich my life with further crewing experiences the world over.

In regards to the Professional Position, I am very interested to crew on a boat as an entry level deckhand or stewardess. If this opportunity presents itself I will go ahead and get my STCW 95, I had it once before in Europe, but it has since expired.
