Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am very adaptable and fast learner regarding essential tasks on board and I am open to new adventures and possibilities.

Concerning my experience at sea:
I have been working on a motor yacht Abeking & Rasmussen 139ft from St Lucia to Fort Lauderdale (1350 nautical miles) as chef stew, I then continued my sailing experience on an Oceanis 40 around the Caribbean, I have crossed the Pacific ocean from Panama to French Polynesia on a catamaran Nautithec 44 (4300 nautical miles), and I worked as a chef/deckhand on The Whitefin 92-foot sailing super yacht, racing in the "Spirit of Tradition" class.
In summer 2022 I've crossed the North Sea from The Netherlands to Norway (where I spent a month) and back on an Hanse 35ft as first mate, I then took part in a delivery of a Najad 46 as Deckhand from Portugal tu Hamble UK and crossed the Atlantic ocean from Olbia to St Martin.
During the summer 2023 i worked as skipper on a Beneteau 41 between Croatia and Italy.
In November 2023 i crossed for the second time the Atlantic from France to Barbados.
From February 2024 to may 2024 i worked as skipper in San Blas islands on a Beneteau Cyclade 43.

I speak fluently Italian, French, English andSpanish.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
