Crew Available: Male, 25. Tampa, Fl. Hard worker but need experience

[jcconnell]

I'm a 25 year old Central Florida native. I grew up on the water however unfortunately, it wasn't in a sailboat. Travel has long been my goal and considering my love of the water, I'd like to travel via sail on my own when the time comes.

I'm looking for experience and can accommodate 2-4 day trips, one-way or round-trip. If airfare is affordable, I'd be willing to pay my own return fare on a one-way trip (though I'd obviously prefer not to).

I'm a hard worker, resourceful and college educated. I'm an Eagle Scout, CPR certified, familiar enough to repair up to moderate engine or electrical issues, a techie and tinkerer. I've been told I cook well and I also maintain a clean living area though I'd prefer to get experience in areas beyond just cooking and cleaning.

I'd appreciate an opportunity to get some more experience.

I have a 51 foot sail boat that I will be bringing to Florida from the Bahamas in February. You might like to do the trip either way. Probably base myself in Fort Lauderdale. Very experienced captain.

newlazydays, thanks for the opportunity. I sincerely appreciate it.

I'd love to join. I'd like to do as much of the trip as possible.

How is the boat outfitted? How many years have you been sailing? Made this trip before.
