Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I’m a serious, experienced, and competent captain ( MCA Master 200gt unlimited / OOW 500 gt, with experience Power and Sail, full AEC, Polar water certification,…). I'm looking for employment or contractual services for deliveries, expeditions, training, charters, cruising, on commercial or private yachts, worldwide. I have a lot of experience as captain on monohulls and catamarans up to 80 feet long. I sail wisely and I am committed to the well-being of my crew and my guests. I am careful with the yacht and her equipment. I have extensive knowledge and skills in maintenance, applicable for current uses but also for refit or new construction projects (project manager) including green energy based one. Crew adapted to best fulfil the requirements of the different services, deliveries or charters. CV and references on request.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

Personally, I like sailing my own yacht (the third one) in remote destinations. She is a 50 feet aluminium center boarder (Ovni 455) I've prepared for long explorations. I also like fun sessions with dinghies (Laser) and sports catas (HC16). Experienced sailor but not only. I was professional photographer reporter for discovery, sailing, outdoors and fishing magazine and still enjoy taking pictures. I've been knew as a famous sportfishing guide in salt water in South Pacific (fly and lures), with guests from all over the world. So I may consider as well any offer where sportfishing is involved. I’m surfing (not very good), diving (not too bad), mountain climbing and freeride monoski (expert).
