AVAILABLE FOR ATLANTIC CROSSING / ARC November2023 / GRAN CANARIA - ST LUCIA My name is Fedro, I am half Italian half Greek and I'm 29 years old. In the past 7 years I lived in Lanzarote where I studied in the National Nautical Academy and in a RYA center where I specialized while having many experiences at sea. In 2022, I came back to Italy where I worked as a first mate on board of a private sailing yacht of 78 feet. For this summer season I moved to Mallorca working as First Mate full time and as Skipper during the week.end on classic sailing yacht of 54 feet. Now I would like to embark on a sailing yacht to participate in the ARC and cross the Atlantic Ocean to the Caribbean Sea in order to improve my knoweldge also in a rally and increase my experience at sea. If you are in a need of a member for your crew and you are interested in my perfil, I would be happy to tell you more about me and join you in cruising or rally. The greatest experience that really motivated and taught me a lot, was in January 2020, when I crossed the Indian Ocean on board of Hunter 44 DS. It was a life-changing experience and made me see things from a different point of view. I have no difficulty relating to others and believe it is essential to work as a team, which is why mutual respect and politeness is essential. I consider myself a sociable, positive and organized person. On board it is essential not to take anything for granted and to plan every step in detail so that any problem, breakdown or complication can be solved in the best possible way. Great sport fishing enthusiast, capable of using computers and software, radar, VHF radio, weather applications, photography (photo and video), charting, freehand drawing, scuba gear, fishing equipment.
