Hi there, After successful years in the corporate world, I am turning passion into profession. Crossed the Atlantic with ARC in Nov 2022, invested myself into RYA Trainings in Portugal and the Canary Islands, worked for charters, started with regattas. As I aim to do my practical YM Offshore exam this year to become a skipper, I am now seeking more experience through Deckhand/Mate/Delivery Crew on a S/Y, but also do not mind helping with wider duties on board as stew. You will see me as a pro-active and positive. With strong interpersonal skills I should easily merge into your crew. I am curious and learn fast, you can expect me to communicate openly and wear a big smile! I enjoy working in environments of high work ethics and excellent customer service. French and German are my mother tongue. I also speak English, Spanish, Portuguese. Let's organise a call :) Previous captains are happy to provide reference too. To a marvellous season, Laura | |
