Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi, I’m Sam — currently in Alicante and ready to join a crew anywhere!
I recently completed my Inshore Skipper Licence (ISS, Philippines – Nov 2024) and I’m eager to gain more hands-on experience at sea. While I haven’t had many opportunities to sail since, I’m enthusiastic, quick to learn, and happy to muck in wherever needed.
A bit about me:
10 years in the Navy – used to close quarters, routines, and working as part of a tight-knit team.
Great cook and tidy shipmate — I always do my part to keep things clean and running smoothly.
Very sociable and optimistic, but also know when to keep it quiet and give people space.
Certified SSI Divemaster – I love to dive, snorkel, and explore the water in every way.
I’m looking for a boat with good vibes and passionate sailors where I can learn, contribute, and enjoy the journey. Open to any type of trip — from casual cruising to deliveries or longer-term passages.
Feel free to reach out — happy to chat and see if we’re a good fit!
