About
I am an experienced Deckhand with dual-season and Atlantic crossing experience on 40–88m private and charter yachts. Having recently obtained my Yachtmaster Offshore, I bring strong seamanship, confident tender handling and a solid foundation across all deck operations. Through both permanent and temporary positions, I have worked across varied programs and crew structures, gaining adaptable experience in busy charter seasons, private owner use, crossings and shipyard periods. I am focused on committing long-term to a stable program where I can contribute consistently, take on increasing responsibility and progress towards a Lead Deckhand role.
