Summary

I am looking for a full time position as a deckhand onboard a reputable yacht, where I can expand and progress my skills in the industry. I have been working as a skipper/tour guide in 12-16m charter sail boats since I was 17 years old in Lisbon, Portugal. Most recently I worked as a deckhand and Interior Crew, onboard a 37m luxury yacht in Sydney, Australia. Am eager to learn and very passionate about life.
