I’m offering myself as a crew member to cross the Atlantic.

Hi there! My name is Marc, and I’m passionate about sailing, traveling, and water sports. I'm eager to keep sailing as much as I can!

I have a background as an industrial designer, with over 12 years of experience in the field. Some months ago, I decided to make a change in my professional life and am now working as a Dockhand at Marina Port Vell in Barcelona, where I assist with docking and undocking maneuvers, both from the dock and on the water using the tender.

I have experience in dinghy sailing; I started as a child with Optimist and later continued with windsurfing, Laser, and Hobie Cat. I’m also part of a sailing club in Barcelona, where I regularly sail a J80.

I hold a PER sailing license with qualification for the Balearic Islands, which is the Spanish equivalent to the RYA Day Skipper, and includes night watch experience. Additionally, I have completed STCW courses in Basic Safety Training, Medical First Aid.

I’m looking for an opportunity to join the crew of a sailboat crossing the Atlantic, from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean, starting from November. I can contribute my skills while continuing to learn and develop in this amazing sport.

Apart from sailing, I enjoy most water sports and have been trying to learn surfing for years, despite the challenges in the Mediterranean. I also practice climbing, surfskating, and am always up for joining a hiking excursion. Beyond sports, I’m passionate about painting, drawing, and photography.

Personally, I’m a relaxed, easy-going, and very uncomplicated person. I’m also a passionate traveler who loves meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. I’m comfortable living with people of diverse backgrounds and languages, and I’m always ready to contribute to a positive, collaborative atmosphere on board.

If you think I’d be a good fit for your crew, don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to connect!

Hola, mi nombre es Marc.
Soy un apasionado de la vela y los deportes náuticos, con muchas ganas de seguir navegando todo lo que pueda!
Soy diseñador industrial de formación, y he trabajado en esto los últimos 12 años. Desde hace unos meses he realizado un cambio en mi vida profesional y estoy trabajando como Dockhand en Marina Port Vell de Barcelona, principalmente, ayudando en las maniobras de amarre y desamarre tanto desde el muelle, como desde el agua, usando la tender.
Tengo experiencia en vela ligera, empecé de pequeño con Optimist y posteriormente en windsurf, Laser y Hobie Cat. Actualmente formo parte de un club de vela en Barcelona donde suelo navegar con un J80.
Poseo el titulo del PER a vela con habilitación a Baleares, que es la versión española del RYA Day Skipper, incluyendo guardias nocturnas.
También tengo los cursos de STCW: Basic Safety Training, Medical First Aid, PSC & RB
Estoy buscando oportunidades de formar parte de la tripulación de un velero para cruzar el atlántico, desde Canarias al Caribe, a partir de noviembre. Puedo aportar mis habilidades a la vez que seguir aprendiendo y practicando este maravilloso deporte.
Estoy acostumbrado a convivir con gente de distintas nacionalidades y con distintos idiomas maternos, y me considero una persona tranquila y muy easy going. Si crees que podría formar parte de vuesta crew, no dudes en contactar conmigo. Estaré encantado de conocerte!

A good Professional

I have worked with Marc at Marina Port Vell for a few months, for the America's Cup sailing competition in 2024. It is a pleasure to work with him assisting sailboats and mega yachts, for their mooring and unmooring and work within the port.
