As a Captain I feel is
important to run an
efficient program on
budget that keeps all systems up
to date and running smoothly
keeping the ship always in a safe a
good running order.
I have been a Captain sailing and
running motor vessels both
privately and commercially for
over 40 years. I built a 35’
plywood and fiberglass trimaran
and sailed from Yokohama Japan
to Saipan Northern Marias Island,
Thailand, and throughout
Micronesia.
I have spent most of my time as a
commercial Captain primarily on
Commercial Vessel Tractor Tugs
doing commercial towing, high
speed crew boats, and OSV.
I have worked throughout Asia,
Middle East, Brazil, West Coast of
Africa, and the US. I have managed
multiple yard periods and projects
with strong emphasis in
mechanical projects.
I am looking to get stared in the
private yacht industry doing
deliveries and managing yard
period and maintenance projects.
