| Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
| Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 1000 coastal miles |
| I have my RYA Coastal Skipper accreditation. I have done my Yachtmaster theory and now am preparing for my Yachtmaster practical exam. I am currently crewing every weekend on a Beneteau First 34 racing. I have my international radio operators certificate and also have completed a Diesel engine course. I come from a media/advertising background, so I am personable and get on well with most people. I am not afraid of hard work as before my media career I worked extensively in the hotel industry working my way up from housekeeper, waiter, front desk to running a 5-star hotel in Australia. I am looking to contribute as a valued member of the crew. | |
