Note personali
Ho dedicato tutta la vita al mare e alle barche. Sono nato e cresciuto al mare, anzi, in Atlantico e, quindi, credo di conoscerlo bene e saperlo rispettare. Ho avuto la fortuna di trasformare la mia passione in un lavoro. Ora, che ho raggiunto una "bella età" (per fortuna in ottima forma), mi piacerebbe mettere a disposizione di qualcuno la mia lunga esperienza.
Sono particolarmente portato per la navigazione di lungo corso e, quindi, vorrei dedicarmi ai trasferimenti lunghi (anche senza armatori a bordo).
So gestire persone di tutte le nazionalità, religione, razza e sesso. Sono sempre andato d'accordo con tutti gli equipaggi e gli armatori con cui ho navigato. Forse ho ereditato questa capacità da mio padre che era un diplomatico (di professione).
Avendo avuto comandi di grandi yacht sono abituato alla gestione anche economica dell'impresa. Senza dimenticare che per 13 anni ho fatto il manager per la B&G........
