| Hello, Nowadays I am working in Barcelona, Spain doing short touristic trips with 3 different boats: Bavaria 46, Beneteau 43 and Bavaria 43. I am looking for a trip more than a week, something different, new experiences, in my job almost every day is the same routine, most of the time im doing day charter. I have Spanish titillations that are similar than offshore and the STCW since 2020. In October I will do a rescue and radio course. I can cook very good for 7 people (aprox), I am not a smoker, I almost no drink alcohol, I like sports and healthy life. My main job is saxophone player ( insta @fire_sax ) during the nights on weekends and day charter during the days. From October to January is my low music season so I will be available for a long term crossing. Thanks for your time, Octavio. | |
