Looking to race, get nautical miles, teach sailing and meet likeminded people!
Hi, my name is Tomás, I am a Portuguese Aerospace Engineer working for a high-performance marine engineering company based in Valencia, Spain as a CFD Engineer. I have been a sailor all my life and the wind and the ocean are my occupation, both personally and professionally.
I raced Optis from a very young age, moved on to 420s and had to stop competitive sailing due to Uni. I started windsurfing in my free time, got my skipper license and recently, before moving to Spain, I started working as crew/skipper at a sailing school in Lisbon, Portugal. I also got back to racing as 2nd trimmer, having done several races for the Portuguese ORC championship.
I am now based in Valencia and looking for opportunities to get out on the water, meet likeminded people and explore this amazing coast. I would also enjoy some racing in the process! :)
I have a lot of experience with dinghy sailing (13 years), moderate hours on the water working as crew for tourist sightseeing in Lisbon (from September to January, both sailing and motor) and some hours of inshore ORC racing (which I hope to increase very soon!).
I look forward to meeting likeminded people who share my passion for the ocean and sailing and hopefully get out on the water very soon!
Fair winds to everyone!
