Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Dear Sir/Madam
I am an experienced crew member (sailed 88,000 NM), looking for full-time (or seasonal) position on a sailing or motor yacht.
I’ve been working as deck /stew/ watch keeper / chef on 98 ft, 62 ft and 85 ft boats.

Since Dec of 2014 I’ve worked on a family-owned 60 feet sailing catamaran “Like aBreeze” OQS, which has often accommodated the owners' friends and business partners, as well as frequent charter guests. Passages included several trans-Atlantic crossings, as well as trans-Pacific from Panama to New Zealand via many Pacific islands along the way etc.

Tasks: as full-charge stewardess, deckhand, chef, 1st mate, watchkeeper, navigator, accountant, etc.
- preparation of the sailing plans for short and long distances, navigation
- working out the cruising plans for the holidays
- organizing local tours and other social events
- provisioning for both short-term and extended voyages
- preparation of gourmet meals for up to 10 people
- tasks of stewardess
- tasks of deckhand
- repair of sails, upholstery…
- accounting, budget running
- can help with: snorkeling, SUP, wakeboard, diving etc
- sailing with the boat owners and with the guests, generally 8 people aboard
- or deliveries with 2-4 people

Prior to this 9-year employment, I lived aboard a 40’ Moody monohull sailboat for 4 years, including voyages throughout the Western Mediterranean, Baltic Sea, Caribbean and South American destinations.

After working in the European financial sector for 20 years, I've sailed on the world's seas for the past 9 years.

I have an adult daughter who is graduated with the master degree of New York Film Academy, she is living and working in Los Angeles (a film producer in CBS Studios).

You can find more detailed information from my CV.
Feel free to contact me if you require further information.
Sincerely yours,
Maret
