With 36 years’ experience in the fishing industry, Candido has worked in Spain, England, South Africa, Argentina, the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean, but came to Falklands water in 2004 when CFL purchased its flagship vessel, the CFL Gambler, on the recommendation of his brother, Chema. As one of our captains for the CFL Hunter, Candido’s role is fundamental to the work that we do. In addition to navigating the vessel, a captain is responsible for organising and carrying out fishing and conservation operations, provisioning the vessel and preparing it for deployment, and organising and managing the ship’s security, fire-fighting and emergency procedures.
