About
Marine Engineer seeking a position aboard a 30m+ Motor Yacht. After nearly four years as Captain/Engineer on a 15m vessel, followed by five years as a maintenance engineer ashore in the UK, I returned to yachting in 2024 and have since worked across multiple yachts from 27m to 78m in temporary engineering roles. These positions have included 2nd, 3rd, and Chief Engineer responsibilities, supporting planned maintenance, machinery checks, watchkeeping, refit periods, and contractor coordination. I bring strong practical knowledge of diesel engines, generators, fuel and lubrication systems, and onboard safety equipment, and I am focused on building consistent sea time while progressing toward my EOOW certification.
