Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
Experience: | 2000 ocean miles / 2000 coastal miles |
I'm a live aboard USCG licensed captain based in Los Angels, CA. I'm an avid reader, musician, marathon runner and I spend most days restoring my 1965 Tartan Blackwatch sailboat. I've spent the last few years as a dock manager and charter captain in Marina del Rey, CA and am now interested exploring new areas of the world, different kinds of vessels and meeting new people. I'm handy and experienced with boat maintenance and repair be it engine, rigging, structural, plumbing, electrical, or any other kind of work necessary. I've got no problem picking up and traveling for a job on short notice and am willing to meet anywhere around the globe for the right experience. Cheers! | |
