Hello Skippers and Yacht owners, I am looking for worldwide opportunities in sailing to work towards a Yachtmaster qualification to have a career in yachting. I have been a keen sailor since a young age and have competed up to international level on dinghies and keelboats from my early teens. Due to this passion for sailing I have been a dinghy instructor for the past 5 years whilst I have been studying at collage and university. More recently I have tried to get more yachting experience gaining my day skipper qualification 2 years ago. Most of my experience in yachting has come from skippering on holidays around the med with friends and yacht racing from the UK in Solent and the North Sea as well as general UK cruising as crew. My love for sailing and being at sea is combined with an easy going but hard working personality which I hope will be an asset to any boat I am lucky enough to crew. | |
