About me
Good day ! I am Ruben Oosthuizen, I currently have 9 months of professional yachting experience on board a 65m S/Y. During these 9months we had a 6month shipyard period where I gained a lot of carpentry experience and confidence with the deck department and all its products! I also have charter experience where I gained good sailing experience and great tender driving experiences. I am also a passionate scuba diver as I hold my advanced, deep and nitrox certification as well as my coaching and trainer’s certification. I absolutely love the yachting industry and i can’t wait for my next opportunity to get my hand dirty. I am currently in the Netherlands but I am happy to relocate on my own account if the position is available.
