Looking for Skipper/Captain or 1st Mate position. I have an EU passport & UK Settled Status.
Hi,
(I now have over a thousand profile views, and nobody has contacted me. When you have looked at my profile, please send me some feedback. That would help me to see what I need to change/learn. Thank you so much!)
I worked through the 2024 summer season as a Sailing Instructor at the 'Sailing du Lac Multisport Centre' in Riva del Garda, Italy. I taught adults and children in English and German.
I worked through the 2023 summer season as a Skipper in Dubrovnik, Croatia. I was responsible for tours of 2, 4, and 8 hours in length with up to 8 guests aboard on my 34ft sloop (Nau-Ten 1997). I usually taught my guests how to sail, and they could participate in the action during their tour. Since the end of the sailing season, I have worked at the company's shipyard.
I started sailing at a young age when I learned the basics from my father. Since then, after many years of sailing, I now have these certificates:
RYA Commercial Endorsement;
Day Skipper (Sail) RYA Certificate;
Day Skipper Theory Certificate (RYA/MCA);
STCW Certificate of Proficiency in Personal Survival Techniques;
RYA/MCA Small Craft Basic Sea Survival Course;
PPR Certificate (RYA) /Professional Practices and Responsibilities/;
STCW Elementary First Aid (A-VI/1-3);
VHF/SRC Certificate (RYA);
Diesel Engine (RYA) certificate;
Competent Crew (RYA) Certificate.
I have an EU passport and Settled Status in the UK.
My strengths aboard are (as my instructors wrote about me in their Instructor Debrief documents):
Riccardo R.: "Great helmsman; Wind awareness/Points of sail; Very keen sailor".
Tom L.: "Points of sail; Helming; Wind awareness; Knot/Ropework".
Will H.: "Good sailor; Helming good; Points of sail; Very aware of wind & surroundings; Good at keeping watch; Dingy work very good".
My hobbies are sailing, kayaking, travelling, reading, skiing, horseback riding, and tennis.
I look forward to meeting some new people!
