ELLY

Captain: Vangelis Atzemian

"During my overall exposure at sea, as a sailing athlete and coach, I have had the opportunity, not only to practice a sport or a profession, but also develop both personally and professionally, utilising every experience towards a diverse skillset.
I have been a sailing coach for 20 years, a job that proved to be extremely challenging and like every great challenge, it left me with a tonne of experiences. I have learned to value the power of a team, while in the meantime I obtained the skill to manage people by means of driving them to work in harmony by promoting a sense of initiative and unity.
As an athlete I am highly determined, resilient, self-motivated and self-disciplined. Although my experience bears a strong sense of perfectionism, since winning championships requires attention to detail, I have learned that being open-minded allowed me to operate with flexibility and versatility and adapt to the changing circumstances and challenges the sea has to offer.
As a person, I am equipped with great communication and social skills, I am familiar with working under pressure and withstand the physical demands of the job, even at times when things can be difficult and the hours long.

Driven by my passion and my insatiable love for the professions of the sea, I bring these skills and the same quality of service to my client, I am a person with a strong work ethic, working with diligence, confidence, and purpose. "
