Cuba, 1 to 2 months...join in a week or so.

Hi Im Simon, 42, Kiwi, currently in Ceinfeugos and looking for 1 or 2 crew to help me sail my Non such 30 around the sth cast , spending half the time in the Cayos and half soaking up the street life on shore. after about 6 weeks of that I´ll sail the boat back to Florida.
Siut peopl who have done a bit of travelling-camping as boat has no fridge , but otherwise is a very comy boat and easy to sail. no experience nessasery, but must go halves in food costs, no other expenses. bring you own snorkelling gear, it will be worth it!


Please only reply if you are serious and can make it to ceinfuegos in a week or 2 , bus to get there costs $20 from Habana. dakotanz@hotmail.com

Cheers
Simon

Too late, just got back from Varadero a week ago. Was there for 2 weeks. Love it, though wish the people had more freedom!

Hey Simon,

I just had a crewing gig fall through down the East Coast so I'm available very soon for the next couple months.
I have my own snorkeling gear as well as all the necessary sailing experience, navigation and cooking and safety certifications and whatnot.

Would love to hear more about your trip so I hope you get in touch. My email is mostapiak@gmail.com or my cell is 289-442-0365.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Mark

Re: Cuba, 1 to 2 months...join in a week or so.

For anyone interested, I’ve spent the last 3 months cruising the Caribbean on ‘Cat’ with Simon. I’ve done a lot of cruising before and have to say this is by far the best. The mix of the cultural experience in Cuba, and the cruising, fishing and snorkelling, has been incredible. Days spent, relaxing on the boat, diving for lobster and conch, eating incredible fresh meals, mingling with the locals. It was surprising, coming from New Zealand, how safe I felt throughout Cuba. I’ve enjoyed the warmth, sincerity, and passion with how the Cubans go about their lives. I’ve also loved the varied days on this trip - sipping mojitos, learning salsa and Spanish from the locals, and low key days of reading books with beer in hand. It was very difficult leaving, however reality calls. If work didn't call i would still be there.
