Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello! I’m an enthusiastic sailor with about 30 years of sailing experience and I own an ELAN 333, which I sail extensively.
I'ld love to meet salimates to exchange sailing experiences, navigating in areas that are new for me, and of course I'm happy to exchange the hospitality on my boat, sailing in the Mediterranean sea.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I hold the Italian CoastGuard sail/motor captain license (unlimited distance), the American Sailing Association certification (101, 103, 104), and the LRC for radio operations (VHF, SSB MF & HF, Inmarsat).
I prefer cruising, exploring, over racing, enjoying the freedom to discover new destinations and cultures. I love spending the night at anchor, rather than noisy marinas; I prefer coastal navigation, rather than long and boring passages of several days.
Professionally, I’m an electronic engineer, CEO of industrial companies, and my job allows me to be quite flexible and available.
I like alpinism, uphill skiing, and guitar.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I’d love to connect with fellow sailors who share a passion for open water, scenic coasts, and relaxed sailing experiences. I'm always ready for adventure and meeting new people in new waters!
I’ll be happy to exchange the hospitality on my Elan 333, sailing the Adriatic Sea, both on the Italian and the Croatian coast.
