| Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
| Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 0 coastal miles |
| I love to be on, in or under the water, no matter what kind of device, whether it's a boat, SUP, kayak or scuba gear. I am a member of the sea rescue service in Rapperswil on the Lake of Zurich and have a motor boat license for inland waters and a international certificate for operators of plasure craft (coastal wateres) as well as the SRC (Short Range Certificate). Now, I would like to expand my nautical skills and knowledge with sailing. I don't have any sailing skills at the moment, but I would like to make the sailing license for inland waters this year. My strengths include reliability, commitment, getting things done and a hands-on approach. I am emphatic, authentic, interested in many things, communicative and approach people openly. In my free time, I like to do different kinds of sports. I used to play football for a long time, now it's more mountain biking in summer and skiing in winter. I am also a volunteer fire fighter. I am married to a very lovely woman. We have no children. | |
