Offering my help for a crossing from Portugal / the Canaries to the Caribbean and potentially further to South / Central America - Enthusiastic Crew Member for Atlantic Crossings
Hi, I'm Ismael, a 34-year-old adventure-seeker with a deep-rooted love for the ocean. Growing up between Germany and India, I developed a unique perspective on the world, embracing diverse cultures and experiences. My family has a sailing boat in the Netherlands, where I spent much of my childhood learning the ropes and sailing with my dad. Although I haven't sailed in a while, I'm eager to get back on board and bring my knowledge and enthusiasm to a new crew.
I'm passionate about all things water-related—whether it's diving, free diving, surfing, or simply being near the ocean, that's where I feel most at home. I have lived in various community settings and worked in different countries, including Amsterdam, Singapore, and the UK, which has given me a deep appreciation for teamwork and adaptability.
Before deciding to pursue more meaningful projects, I worked as a management consultant. Now, I'm looking for new adventures, and joining a crew for an Atlantic crossing seems like the perfect way to blend my passion for the sea with my desire for unique experiences. I'm comfortable with a variety of roles on board, from steering and maintenance to cooking and night watches.
I speak both English and German fluently, and my Spanish is conversational. I bring a positive attitude, a collaborative spirit, and a genuine interest in building connections with those I meet. If you're seeking a crew member who's adaptable, experienced, and enthusiastic about sailing, I'd love to join your journey across the Atlantic.
