Even-keeled, low drama crewmate with an anticipate-and-adapt mindset — ready to contribute to your team!
Hello! I’m Daniel/Danny, Swedish-American dual citizen, aspiring commercial sailor and marine conservationist. I’ve built a diverse sailing CV over the past several years through both private and commercial deliveries/relocations across the Mediterranean, Atlantic, Caribbean, Pacific and most recently the Southern Ocean. In 2026 alone, I've served on commercial deliveries from Djibouti to Greece (Red Sea, Suez Canal), from Montenegro to Tahiti (Atlantic and Pacific crossings, Panama Canal transit), and on a private repositioning from Tahiti to Patagonia, including a four week passage largely in the Roaring 40s. In 2025, I served in a six month role as 1st Mate, Caretaker and acting Skipper aboard an Oceanis 411 in the the Med.
In total, I’ve completed well over a dozen multi-day passages, 150+ night watches, and numerous docking and anchoring manoeuvres. I’m comfortable standing solo watch, conducting sail manoeuvres, navigating, keeping logs, and supporting day-to-day vessel operations. I hold a high respect for watch schedules and responsibilities, and have a 100% on-time watch record.
I’m in very good health and maintain a high fitness level - no physical restrictions, ailments or sea sickness - and lead an active, low-maintenance, low impact lifestyle. I bring a proactive "anticipate and adapt" mindset aboard, absolutely love to troubleshoot, crawl around in lockers and solve issues with resources at hand, while being seen as easy-going, considerate, stable and low drama, and sometimes even kinda funny. I also enjoy trying to up my game as a galley cook. :-)
I continue to seek opportunities to meaningfully contribute on new passages and vessels while expanding my own skills.
