Summary

I am a 19 year old New Zealand Citizen seeking a rotation position onboard Superyachts.

I have intermediate level practical mechanical experience and qualifications, which have been showcased in the vast variety of tasks I've fulfilled.

Recently I completed several seafarers courses in Auckland NZ and hoping that the skills gained so far would make me a suitable candidate to be considered for a role working onboard Superyachts, either working as a deckhand and/or in a mechanical capacity. I am flexible and open to opportunities.
