Captain Shane Taylor

Personal Profile

As a professional Yachtsman serving over 14 years in the charter and private yachting industry, I have accomplished and learnt a

great deal and strive to become the greatest asset to a team I can be. I am eager to gain extensive knowledge and experience

within all fields of the marine industry and create new goals as I accomplish old ones.

My Objective

I am currently seeking full time and long term employment as Captain on either a Motor or Sail Vessel of 80 – 120ft (<40m). My

experience and expertise spread throughout the Caribbean Islands, US East Coast and majority of the Mediterranean Sea, and I am

always open to venture into new yachting destinations. I hold my Captains license proud, however I make a keen engineer and aspire to progress in my service and maintenance abilities.
