August availability – motivated crew – Coastal & offshore + Curious about places and stories
Hi, I’m Ilaria, 42.
Based in Northern Italy.
Italian Offshore Sailing License (beyond 12 NM).
Limited but solid experience. Comfortable at sea, reliable on watch, happy with night shifts and all onboard duties.
I’ve been sailing since childhood and in the last years I’ve consciously made it a priority again. I train with a sailing team based in Monfalcone and join cruises, deliveries and longer passages whenever possible — Rome to the Aeolian Islands, Cardiff to Dublin to Oban, and northern Norway.
I run a small manufacturing company with my brother and work full time near Venice, so I mainly sail on weekends and throughout August.
Hands-on and collaborative. I contribute to manoeuvres, watchkeeping, cooking and daily tasks. Used to shared responsibility and maintaining a calm, positive onboard atmosphere.
Available in August and motivated to gain meaningful offshore experience.
For me, being at sea also means appreciating silence — the kind that clears your mind. At the same time, I genuinely enjoy thoughtful conversations. I’m passionate about books, culture and exchanging ideas. When possible, I love going ashore to hike and explore. I value crews where practical cooperation and intellectual curiosity can coexist naturally.
