| Nationality: | Ireland |
| Currently based in: | Drogheda, Ireland |
| Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
| Experience: | 400 ocean miles / 400 coastal miles |
| I am a 51 years old Irish citizen, born and graduated in Ukraine. My profession is power engineering and construction management. I am fond of travelling, learning, meeting new people and different cultures. I always loved the ocean but was too busy to discover it. By age I found that time is limited and life is more than just a career. I plan to get more ocean experience, being ready to execute all duties at my best knowledge and passion. I'm in a normal physical condition, still being good skier and tennis player. I am well educated, broad looking, and pleased to support a variety of discussion topics. In the ocean, my additional value could be an engineering approach, ability to cook well, first aid skills and sense of humor. I can describe myself as tolerant, honest and reliable person of good character. Hope to get an opportunity to see the world, find friends and maybe change the occupation one day. Holder of Irish Day skipper certificate. | |
