FAR NIENTE 游艇租赁

AJ started his career as a diesel mechanic working on underground mining machinery in Australia. At the end of his apprenticeship in 2010 he rewarded himself with a 6-month holiday and somehow never made it back. He honed his engineering skills working in the oil and gas sector near the arctic circle in Canada. Life eventually took him to the Netherlands where he purchased a 27-foot sailboat. With a little help from YouTube and a bit of tenacity he taught himself to sail and crossed the Atlantic Ocean to the Caribbean! Thus began his life in the marine industry. AJ has been lucky enough to travel to Europe, the east coast of USA, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. In his free time, he is an avid spearfisher, hiker, horse rider and, of course, sailor.
