Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I have over 30 years experience at sea on many different types of vessel. For 19 years I was a search and rescue Coxswain/Skipper for the RNLI saving lives at sea. I am currently self employed as a commercial skipper. Over the years I have sailed most of the world's Ocean's.
I spent most of 2016 on a large Catamaran sailing from Australia to Hawaii.
I am always looking for new and exiting opportunities.
If I am off work during the summer, myself and the family like to go cruising around the Greek islands.
