Throughout my career, I have gained a wide range of experiences, including dredging, dredge support, workboat operations, towing, survey, and vessel delivery, across a variety of vessel types up to 65 meters LOA, in both categorised waters and at sea.As a highly skilled ship handler, I am proficient with conventional single/twin shafts, steerable propellers, Schottel systems, and CPP. I take great pride in being a safety-conscious, approachable, and highly competent Master, with a proven track record of maintaining high standards while ensuring the safety of my crew, vessels, and the marine environment.My passion for the maritime industry extends to training and mentoring the next generation of seafarers. I firmly believe in the importance of knowledge-sharing to foster safer crews, ships, and better operational practices. I am always open to offering guidance, addressing safety concerns, and confident in challenging practices when necessary. Equally, I value feedback and am always eager to implement new ideas to improve safety and efficiency.
