Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello! I'm Rafaela, I am a personal trainer and for the last 8 years I have had my own business, a private training studio.
At the moment I'm looking for new experiences and challenges, I started working on boats at the end of May as stew/deck. My boat is in the America's Cup and belongs to the New Zealand team, we take guests and sponsors to see the races.
My contract ends at the end of October and I'm looking forward to my next boat.
