Σχετικά
High-performing Master Mariner with over 15 years of command and bridge experience across Ro-Pax, Car Carriers, Tankers, and ASD Tugboats. Currently commanding the T/B Captain Dimitris III, I am deeply involved in the evolution of maritime technology, specifically focused on ASD propulsion and modern operational efficiency. Throughout my career, I have prioritized safety (ISM/ISPS/SOLAS) and leadership, managing diverse crews and complex vessel operations.
I am now looking to transition this extensive sea-going expertise into a shore-based role (Marine Superintendent, Operations, or Safety/DPA), where I can contribute to the strategic and operational growth of a leading maritime organization.
