About
Experienced and highly professional Marine Engineer with over fifteen years across the yachting sector, including service as Chief Engineer on private and charter motor yachts up to 65m. I have a strong track record of keeping engine rooms running safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards expected in luxury yachting. My background also includes shipyard periods, refits, dry docks and technical support for yacht dealers, giving me well-rounded practical and managerial expertise. I take pride in a strong work ethic, clear communication with crew and management, and the ability to troubleshoot quickly while keeping guest operations smooth and discreet. Technically, I have extensive hands-on experience with CAT, MTU, Kohler, Wärtsilä, Yanmar, Himsen and MAN engines, along with hydraulic and electric CMC steering, stabilisers and thrusters. Proficient with PMS systems such as IDEA, AMOS and Task Assistant, I focus on preventative maintenance, reliability and maintaining an organised, guest-ready engine room at all times.
