Summary

I am an experienced captain with a solid background in operating luxury sailing yachts for both private use and charter. I am a dynamic individual, driven by a strong desire to learn and stay constantly up to date.
Over the course of fifteen years working as both captain and crew member, I have successfully developed and strengthened my versatile skill set in the following areas:

  • Planning and executing every voyage in detail, ensuring the safety of the yacht and crew, always meeting deadlines and schedules;
  • Monitoring and carrying out both routine and extraordinary maintenance on all onboard systems and deck equipment;
  • Managing and supervising work performed by external contractors;
  • Ensuring full satisfaction of owners’ and guests’ needs, covering all aspects of onboard experience (cuisine, cleanliness, service, entertainment, and relaxation);
  • Efficient crew management with a strong focus on maintaining the highest standards of quality and professionalism.
