Yachtmaster, My own

Currently based in Australia, I am available for any international deliveries, private yacht management, skipper, coaching and sailing event management. I have over 30 years experience sailing various types of yachts both power and sail. Prior to this I worked in the telecommunications field in Australia and Asia, involved in telecoms construction and later engineering sales. I operate mostly in South-east Asia and Australian although I have skippered on short term contracts in Greece and the South Pacific and trans-Pacific deliveries. Acting as Captain on large yachts is more than simply sailing from A to B and navigating, he must also be able to function as an engineer, electrician and tour guide. My time skippering charter yachts has given me a keen appreciation of not just running a boat but also providing a unique and enjoyable experience for charterers. Several years ago, I returned to Australia to pursue further yachting and commercial qualifications. I have successfully completed the RYA Yachtmaster with MCA Master of Yachts 200 tonnes commercial endorsement.
