Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Previously sales/mkg career in Europe and Expat, decided to come back to my basics, to fullfil my needs and give more sense to life by sharing experience on sea.
Currently travelling and jumping from sea to shore, and from shore to sailing vessels.
Easy going serious mate with good sense of humour.
Being grown up and educated by a father captain and shipilot himself. Looking for nice shipmate souls to share life at sea and every moments.
Chef and navigator as well could be of great help to similar captain/owner profile and much more.
I'd like to have my own sailing vessel soon. Will be glad to partner with nice people.
Like to meet U . Thanks for reading. Feel free to contact me so we can arrange further skype or facetime if U wish.
Or the best : organic meeting 😉
Cheers
Phil

From the sailing and martime point of view :

I have been brought up on the french Channel seaside with a father Captain and chief pilot on the solent, spending all summers at the sailing school, on the seashore and scuba diving with my pals.
I currently sailed the solent , north britanny and the Channel Island, crossing to english south coast.
My father owned a 20 feet sailing girl with no confort, we sailed 10 years on that boat.
Used to manoeuver and sails change.

Couple of crossing and sailing around to Corsica and Sardinia in the Mediterranean on 40 ' feet sailing units

Regular passages in SouthPac between Australia/NZ/Vanuatu/Fiji........French Polynesia

2019 Pacific Crossing Marquesas to Panama :
3558 nm/28 days
Panama Canal - Haulliner ...

Former craftsman in the french Navy based on an escorter during my Military duty, sailed through Indian Ocean from Djibouti , Madagascar, Mozambique Channel, South Yemen, Straight of Ormuz, Mascate, UEA, Réunion Island, Mauritius, and small Islands with no public access....

Experienced seaman with nautical miles.

I am used to live on board and perfectly understand there is one master after god on a ship. I know and respect the rules of living in a tiny community.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

Love very much sailing the south pacific Ocean and around Australia, NZ, and pacific/asian islands.
Currently in Australia Brisbane QLD but able to travel to boarding location if needed.
