Looking for a 1st Mate, Captain, Racing crew or Delivery Crew position (Yachtmaster Offshore with 60000 miles)
Hi - I've just joined Crewbay. I'm interested in finding a position as a 1st Mate, Captain, Racing crew or Delivery Crew. I have wide experience in Ocean passages, racing and general cruising, both as skipper and rearguard crew. (Yachtmaster Offshore with 60000 miles).
The bulk of my experience comes from the South African coast, so I am extremely proficient in heavy conditions. I am at home on any type of sailing boat and have a very wide knowledge of all aspects of keelboat sailing - up to 65ft. I have proven competence in Navigation and safe, damage-free execution.
I have recently retired from a Corporate career and having seen all of my children leave home, I am keen to now pursue a career in yacht deliveries or crew term contract. I am fit and healthy and enjoy road running and a weekend round the cans race at Royal Cape Yacht Club.
I am open to travel anywhere at any time (subject to visa requirements) and to start in any position which has a suitable requirement, to establish myself overseas.
Happy to upgrade to Yachtmaster Ocean certification if necessary.
