Entry-Level Deckhand | ISSA Certified | Available Immediately Globally

I'm seeking my first professional deckhand position aboard a charter sailing yacht. Recently achieved ISSA Crew and Inshore Skipper certifications, and I own/operate a 40-foot sailboat, giving me solid practical experience with sail handling, maintenance, and seamanship.

Making a committed career transition from tech leadership into yachting - bringing strong work ethic, technical aptitude, and genuine passion for life at sea. Experienced with vessel maintenance (varnishing, cleaning, mechanical basics), line handling, and safety protocols.

British passport holder, non-smoker, currently based in Bali but available to fly and join vessel anywhere in the world within 24-48 hours. Looking for a professional crew that values learning, teamwork, and operational excellence.

Particularly interested in Mediterranean or Caribbean charter operations, but open to any location with the right opportunity. Ready to prove myself and grow within the industry - this isn't a gap year adventure, it's my new career path!
