Looking for a Lead deckhand or bosun postion

Good day,

My name is Stephen van niekerk,

I have 3 years of experience on motor and sailing yachts. I am very passionate about my work and take pride in my job and my boat. I have a lot of experience driving tenders, {water jet and outboard}. I am experience in anchor drops and mooring procedures, I am very clear during radio communications during Manoeuvering. I have a strong background in water rescue and have my PADI rescue divers certificate as well.

I am skilled in painting, sanding, varnishing and working with polyurethane paints and primers and can work with out supervision. I am very experienced working with teak and repairing the deck.

I have a total of 6 months of yard period work, I did a big refit on a 56m perini navi in La Spezia for 4 months. Full refit of rigging, painting of hull, hydraulic over haul and changing of anchor chains.

I have my yacht master offshore that is commerciallyendorsed and my GMDSS GOC working my way to completing my OOW. I am confident in bridge watch keeping and I am comfortable with bridge operations.

I work well with guests and enjoy water sports instructing, I am experienced with instructing guest how to fly boarding, wakeboard and maintain a constant level of safety during use of water toys.

I enjoy fishing alot and was tasked with being the fishing guide for any guests who want to go fishing whilst on charter on MY Fusion in the Caribbean. Always guaranteeing a good day of fun and fishing.
