| I'm Nicholas, currently doing a sabbatical year and focusing on learning music as well as sailing, right now I'm working as a deckhand in the USVI. I consider myself to be independent and a fast learner, and would love to meet new people from different backgrounds to share past and new experiences. I have half a season's experience as a deckhand on a 65ft charter sailing boat in the caribbean, as well as crossing the Atlantic on sail training ship, being a dinghy sailing instructor for groups of all ages, and some day cruising. I also have the SCTW basic safety training diploma and Licencia de navegación(Spanish licence that allows to pilot motor and sailboats up to 6 meters in length). I am really eager to develop my career as deckhand on board sailing vessels, be it charter or delivery crew. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, and know a bit of german (about b1 level). US and spanish citizenships, passports up to date. | |
