I'm a member of a professional sailing race team since 2013. My main position is bowman, but I can do easily other duties on board. I have more than 5.000 miles on sea via sailing boats. And about ten years ago, I worked for a touristic yacht (50 ft) about 2 months as a second captain. I transferred about 20 different sailing vessel in different times and completed a 7 days non-stop open sea journey experience (from Crete to Malta). I understand a little bit mechanical structures, motors or technical issues and I'm good with fixing stuffs or engineer thinking etc. I have international skipper license (up to 80 ft-long vessels). And I have Short Range Radio Operator (VHF) licence and Professional Sailing Sportmen License. I have Sea Survival Certificate from Royal Yacht Association (RYA). I have first aid certification from government. And I'm boat captain of volunteer search and rescue organisation (like RNLI) in Istanbul, Turkey since 2016. I also have Yachtmaster Coastal Certificate from IYT.

I'm open-minded, easy-going, have sense of humor. I often working as a volunteer for social associations. My political view is liberal and not a religious person. I don't have any health problem, donate blood in every 3 months and don't smoking. I love sport. Doing fitness, trekking and playing billiards. And I played American Football for a colleague team professionally during 2 season. I traveled to 14 different countries as a tourist. I can easily get visas for any country, and I do not have any illegal history. I never married and don't have child or pet. And I don't carry bicycle with me on board. I'm a founder of a digital media agency in Istanbul and a start-up company on car sharing system.
