My qualifications include: Masters of Business Administration, CMI member- Chartered Management Institute, maritime security certificates, international skipper's licence, VHF cert, STCW, marine fire prevention, first aid, food catering compliance, WSET.

I have an extensive local knowledge in ports and operations across Europe, Pacific and Oceania, and have the ability to advise owners on: -international compliance, customs, import, clearance
-advise or manage refit projects through a network of contractors across Europe, Pacific and Oceania
-'winterise' vessels or prepare for the off season
-arrange haul outs and maintenance work
-manage warranty work on new vessels

If you are looking for a reliable and hands off approach to boat ownership, peace of mind for undertaking blue water cruising and ocean crossings, or streamlined refit management, feel free to get in touch.

All the best,

Bianca

Five Stars!

Bianca came aboard for just shy of a month in Fiji as we cruised the local islands, and was a blast to have on board. We spent untold hours laughing, having amazing conversations, and cooking delicious meals and dessert. In addition to her extensive maritime experience, she is well traveled, insightful, and great company. I hope our paths cross again soon!

A Highly Beneficial Asset to Any Boat

Bianca joined my boat (I'm the owner and captain) to be a co-captain for a delivery journey across difficult coast and conditions in Italy. She excelled in every aspect of her duties and proved to be an essential and dependable crewmember. Bianca was able to deal with any situation and efficiently complete an array of tasks with professionalism, confidence and thoroughness. Her knowledge of sailing and her expert approach far exceeded my expectations for her relative youth. She is also a friendly and very interesting conversationalist who will make good company on any voyage. I highly recommend her. Thanks Bianca!
