Skipper / Mate - Lagoon 470 charter master, Atlantic and Indonesia. Available now, worldwide.

Portuguese skipper, 48, available immediately and worldwide with no regional restriction.

Two full charter seasons in command of a 14 m Lagoon 470 sailing catamaran out of Sesimbra on the Portuguese Atlantic coast - passage planning, weather, anchoring and berthing in Atlantic swell and tide, guest briefings and safety drills, and every engine check, rig inspection and end-of-season job in between. Before that, a season as deckhand aboard a privately owned Catana 470 in Indonesia: inter-island passages, night watches, remote anchorages and reef approaches in poorly charted water, with no shoreside support.

Qualifications: Portuguese Ocean Skipper (Patrao de Alto Mar), no length, power or area limit. STCW Basic Safety valid to March 2031. Portuguese seafarer medical, fit for deck service without restriction, valid to February 2028 - Portugal is in Annex 1 of MCA MSN 1815, so it is accepted as ENG1 equivalent on UK-flagged vessels. VHF Radiotelephonist Class A. EU passport.

Behind the boats, close to thirty years of professional work on the water - competition swimmer and water polo player, swimming coach, and eleven years running a surf academy where I hired and trained the coaches and ran the finances.

I am looking for mate, delivery and ocean passage work, and I am building qualifying miles towards RYA Yachtmaster Offshore. Straight with you about where I am: I have the sea time, not a signed logbook behind it. Portuguese and English fluent, Spanish intermediate, French basic.
