Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello everybody, I've been sailing since I was 11 years old, and I continue to do so today. At the age of 16, I worked as a sailing instructor for many years. Here is a summary of my experiences:

-2 years as a deckhand on the Lagoon 52 "Aloha" (same owner).
-3 years as a Captain on the Lagoon 620 "Jambo" (same owner).
-7 months as Captain on the Lagoon 620 "Blue Griffin".
-1 year and 7 months as Captain on the Beneteau Oceanis 62 "Dear Leticia".
-2 years as Captain on the Lagoon 630 M/Y "Entre Nous".
- Currently Captain on a CNB 76’.

I have experience in 2 Atlantic crossings as Captain of the Lagoon 45 "Bliss", from Spain to Martinique, and from Spain to Brazil and Grenada.

I have high first aid knowledge (I’m a paramedic ambulance driver), diving experience (PADI Open Water certified) and mechanical knowledge (AEC 2).

Currently, I've been working with my partner for 6 years. She is also a Captain and a skilled cook (culinary course at the Basque Culinary Center). We are a hardworking, professional, confident, and respectful team.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I would like to demonstrate all my qualities through my actions. I am a responsible person who loves his job, and I believe I possess all the necessary skills to be a good traveling companion. I have patience, remain calm under pressure, and I consider myself resolute and pragmatic. If I have to mention a weakness, it might be my lack of experience in cooking, but I am always eager to learn! Recommendation letter included.
