Career Objective

I am a highly experienced commercial captain ( unlimited II/2 licenses) with over 15 years in international maritime operations, ¨I am a real Captain, with academic training, a career with verifiable experience, not a sailor with a captain's license¨. currently seeking a position as Captain aboard a private motor yacht. My background includes commanding a wide range of vessels—from offshore support ship sand DP-equipped vessels to high-speed passenger ferries—while managing crews of up to 52in demanding and diverse operational environments. I bring strong expertise in navigational safety, regulatory compliance, and crew leadership, with a successful history of managing flag state, class, and port inspections, overseeing shipyard periods, and implementing rigorous safety and operational protocols. My role as captain consistently focused on both operational performance and the care, comfort, and safety of passengers, making my skills highly transferable to the yachting sector. In 2023, I served as Captain aboard a 25m private motor yacht in Barcelona and Ibiza, with season in Ibiza, where I handled tender operations, water toys, owner trips, and private events.
