Capitán de Yate (YM Ocean Spanish),Marpol Certificate
It has been twenty years since I left France (Marseille) for my first Atlantic crossing on a Wauquier 47. After this experience I decided that I would only be happy living and working at sea.
Since then, I have been fortunate to be instructed by some demanding captains and owners.
I must say I enjoy my job and like to take care of the boat and keep guests and crew happy.
Even if for the last several years I have been working mainly on motor yachts, I am still enjoying the classic races.
I am now interested in applying this experience as a captain on yacht of less than 30 meters or as mate on something larger, be it sail or power.
