Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello, my name is Nelson, and I’m here because I have a deep passion for the sea and an intense desire to be part of a crew.

Since my teenage years, I’ve had the opportunity to sail on a small sail boat, which provided me with a solid foundation in sail handling and an understanding of what it means to be on a boat. This experience ignited a lasting love for life at sea.

My hobbies are always related to the maritime environment, and this motivates me to learn more every day. I am a quick learner and proactive in everything I do. I believe these qualities are essential in a crew, where collaboration and adaptability are key.

Additionally, I work well in a team and am always open to learning from others. I hope to make the most of every experience to prepare for the day I can sail solo on my own boat.

Finally, I am comfortable in extreme environments and face challenges with resilience, allowing me to adapt to adversity with ease.

I’m excited about the possibility of being part of a crew and contributing my enthusiasm and skills. I hope we can embark on this journey together!

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I am a very calm, kind and responsible person. I know how to live with a diversity of people and I adapt well to environments. I'm a little shy and I prefer to listen more than talk. I am interested in learning from experiences on board. I'm taking an ocean sailing course to further improve my knowledge and I've started taking part in competitions. My plans are to see the world on board a sailboat and gain as much experience as possible to be the captain of my ship.
