Watch: If you are wondering about a special role for your Cat in the Caribbean, here's what I do.

Offshore Capitana Ocean & Charter sailing experienced 35.000+NM also available as support captain catamaran+monohull

Hey There! I am looking for a captain or assisting captain role on catamarans;
short-term or long-term depending on the circumstances and the itinerary.

Yachtmaster Offshore RYA.
I am interested and available as an occasional captain assisting crew, but also as a steady captain to charter or private boats.
A liveaboard agreement as captain preferably on catamarans around the 50 - 60 ft has my absolute preference.

I can teach catamaran maneuvering and sailing to start up new catamaran owners. Get you going, be comfortable with your vessel, and have you on your way with some assistance, before I move on again.

I have a successful charter concept for the right catamaran owner with a non-US flagged catamaran that sleeps at least 8. (I am really done with nonsense US rules).
I am experienced with international worldwide sailing and its procedures.

About me: female offshore captain with more than 35.000 NM experience;
sailed in The Netherlands, the Mediterranean (Greece. Turkey, Spain, Gibraltar Strait, Portugal), crossed the Atlantic in both directions (Cape Town-StHelena- Fernando de Noronha - Barbados & Salvador Brazil-Fernando de Noronha- Cape Verde), crossed the Indian Ocean (Darwin Australia- Indonesia- Christmas Island - Cocos Keeling islands - Rodrigues- Reunion - Madagascar--Mozambique- South Africa Richards Bay to Cape Town - Saldanha), Great Barrier Reef, Eastern US coast, Bahamas, BVI, USVI, Puerto Rico, Cayman Islands, Jamaica.
Lots of adventure stories to tell on long days at sea! :)

I am experienced, Aware, RYA trained means safety first, and team spirit, I appreciate clean and tidy boats (also a safety issue), I like long-distance sailing so now and then, and entering new ports. Love night watches (especially when the weather is good..LOL) and love being on the sea.
If you're just looking for just the dishwasher and cleaning lady (been there done that) don't pick me. If you're looking for a team player who keeps clean after themselves and has significant knowledge to help you make safe sea passages, who has a lively spirit, is an early bird, is fit, is healthy and takes care of her wellbeing, then I could be the match.
I don't respond well to bullying captains. Just giving you a glimpse of 'been there, done that'.. :P

But in case shit hits the fan, know that I have single-handedly sailed a 52 ft Catamaran. I have 3 years of experience as a liveaboard on a 50 ft Voyage. Sailed a 58ft cat for 7,5 months. Sailed through extreme weather conditions and made entry into more than 40 countries. I am very traveled (all my life) and adjust easily to different cultures like I have been taught when I was a child.


I am comfortable sailing monohulls and catamarans but lean toward the cats.

I am spiritually oriented but still, very down to earth (I guess that's my Dutch roots). I am a professional wellness coach, internet marketer and on the rise with my own unique sailing business.

If you're interested in my 'blissniss' concept shoot me a line and let's chat.
In this regard, I am looking for relaxed open-minded catamaran owners who love the idea of making a return with their boat. And not leave it idol for most months of the year just costing an arm and a leg without regular maintenance on a day-to-day base.

BTW I am not looking for any kind of 'romantic' situations, not long or short-term. Suggestions in that direction are absolutely NOT appreciated. (unfortunately, as a woman this needs to be repeated over and over..)
Are there any fun relaxed and hopefully spiritually-oriented women, families or couples out there on their boats looking for a very talented hardcore sailor captain?? Or maybe Are you wanting to invest in a boat with captain?
I am here.
Mika
