| I am a semi professional skipper with RYA Yachtmatser Offshore that have been sailing since I was a kid. Now the time is to live the dreams and get the experience of the oceans. I have owned some smaller boats (1992-2014), but he last 13 years I have been working as a skipper (Captain) and organised flotillas in Greece, Croatia, France and Sweden. I have been captain on both monohulls and catamarans (up to 57 feet) on 20-30 different boats the last 13 years (mostly 47-53 feet). As an owner of a travel company I have been responsible for organising flotillas with up to 11 boats in the Meds. I have also done some transportation as a skipper in Scandinavia (500 +300 nm). I have done a lot of work together with Dream Yacht Charter in Croatia, Sweden and Greece. I am used to travel with different people and enjoy cooking! I have my own travel agency organising active conference trips for companies also on land. In November 2016 I completed my RYA Yachtmaster Offshore in Palma de Mallorca (where we lived for 4 years) to be able to work more with sailing. The next natural step will be to get out on the oceans. Therefor I am looking for opportunities to make longer crossings or to cross the Atlantic to get the experience and to take the shared part of work on the boat. I am open for opportunities from Oct to Dec 2023 to help out to sail boats in the Mediterraneans or to cross the Atlantic Sea. | |
