During my free time, I dedicate myself to teaching at Maritime Professional Training.

This dedication allows me to provide the most up-to-date and relevant information to my students. If desired, I can provide a detailed list of courses I am qualified to teach, giving you a comprehensive understanding of the subjects and topics in which I can deliver exceptional instruction.
I believe that my experience as an instructor, coupled with my extensive yachting background, makes me a valuable asset. My ability to effectively impart knowledge and mentor others aligns well with the values and goals of your organization. I encourage you to consider my unique combination of expertise when evaluating my application.

While I am actively searching for my next long-term command, I have been keeping busy by assisting other captains in taking much-needed time off. Over the course of a year, I have successfully completed three transatlantic crossings and temporary jobs on the yachts Marguerite, Andrea, Samurai and Lady Maja I. These deliveries have allowed me to continue honing my skills and gaining valuable experience while supporting my fellow mariners.
During my recent role, I served as a temporary Triton submersible pilot, sub tech, and sub pilot instructor. My primary responsibility was assisting "The Deep" in establishing their submersible school located in Chepstow, England. This engagement was focused on preparing the two submarines for their annual inspections conducted by DNV. www.deep.com
