Professional Dutch multilingual Skipper - WIlling to travel. Technical skills. Flexible times. Rec. and Prof.
Hi - I've just joined Crewbay. I'm interested in finding a position as a Competent Crew, Voluntary work, Delivery Crew or Captain. My regular work is rather slow during European winter, so I'm offering myself as an extra hand, delivery skipper, or just regular company.
Originally I have a background in IT/Software, but sold those activities and followed my passion 4 years ago. Currently I work on the Dutch seas and lakes as a skipper on classic ships (45 to 70 meter, 150-230ft) with up to 40 guests and crew.
I'd consider myself easy going and reliable. You can read some reviews on tripadvisor to get a feeling:

Experienced with technical issues such as diesel and other maintenance/repairs.
Normally an avid squash player and sporty, but if we drink a beer or 2, some tobacco can add to the atmosphere.
My qualifications are European and can be found on my personal website (below). Skipper of sailing vessels up to 500GT. In possession of seafarers book.
Jobs preferred: Anywhere, Asia, US, Carib .Temperature is a thing, I love warmth.
Available until midst march 2026.
Short notice ok
Location: Anywhere basically, depending on role/plan/area i can contribute to travel
