About

As an experienced deckhand, I bring a solid background in yacht operations, ranging from mega yachts to 60-meter vessels and support boats. I have gained practical experience on training vessels and fishing boats. With past work experience on a 147m super-yacht, I'm comfortable operating large-sized tenders smoothly. I maintain high standards of professionalism and am dedicated to ensuring smooth deck operations and guest safety.
