Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am collecting the sailing practice for 500GT Master level. For this reason, I am looking for a job for all of next season (preferably a long-term contract).
In August 2023 I served as a relief captain on a 36m sailing yacht along the Malta, Gozo, and Sicily area. Earlier I was a skipper of the catamarans Lagoon and Fountain Pajot (Amalfi Coast and Capri, Sardinia, and Bay of Biscay - West MED) and - between the 14th of Nov 2022 and 21st of May 2023 - a captain on a 43-meter classic schooner in Poland (my cooperation with this owner is longer - start at 2006).
I have served twice as OOW or chief mate on 41 and 46-meter motor yachts in Italy (Loano and Imperia area; end-of-season and winter maintenance and shipyard work). I also have experience in running smaller monohull yachts and catamarans, both classic (eg. J-140, Jongert, Conrad) and modern (eg. CNB66, Lagoon, Fountain Pajot, Jeanneau, Beneteau).

My current commercial maritime certificates are STCW Master (Yacht) 200GT/OOW 500GT (motor and sail - Maritime Office in Gdynia, Poland), RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore Commercially Endorsed & Transport Malta Endorsement - Master of commercial vessels less than 50 meters and less than 500 GT operating solely in territorial waters of Malta. All my certificates including STCW and ENG1 docs are valid. I have worked for many seasons in the Mediterranean.

Please don't hesitate to ask me questions.
