About me
As a 30 year old dedicated, mature, and confident individual, I am eager to continue my career in the yachting industry with a professional and well-established crew with healthy habits and a positive work environment. Having completed my first season’s experience, I have developed a solid foundation in deckhand duties and responsibilities. My time in the industry has not only deepened my passion for the maritime world but also provided me with the much needed skills and insights. I have added several reference letters attesting to my competency, work ethic, and ability to work effectively as part of a team, so please feel welcome to reach out to any of them. I am thrilled about the opportunity to contribute positively to the reputation and operations of your yacht. With my passion, enthusiasm, and commitment to continuous learning, I am confident that I can quickly become a valuable and long-standing asset to your crew. Thank you again for considering my application.
