Summary
Being part of the yachting industry was a youthful goal. Taking on exciting challenges led me to become a professional seafarer, eventually earning my Unlimited Master license. I feel good to give my services and help the owner or guests explore exotic maritime landscapes, play with water toys, enjoy scuba diving, or just see them relaxing onboard. Feeling that people love the sea is gratifying while I take care of your safety and security.
