Hello Bronte,
A little about me: My name is Adam. I am 24 years old, fit, healthy, non-smoker, no drugs, laid back, love sailing, trying to explore the world and experience as much as possible. I have plenty of funds to get me to French Poly as well as for a ticket for the rest of the way to
Australia. I am in San Diego right now and can do a face to face meet.
Current Situation: In early December I scoured the sailing
forums looking for crew positions to Australia. I found a boat leaving Ensenada mid April and agreed to come down mid March to help get the boat ready to sail. I was there for a week working on the boat and I realized that neither the boat or the owners are what I would consider "seaworthy" Nice enough fellows, but I don't trust them or their boat to get me across the pacific safely, so I am looking for another boat to crew on.
Boat Experience: I sailed last year for 4 months in the Carribbean. I logged almost 2000nm and did a few 3-4 day passages. I worked all last summer in
Alaska aboard a Salmon Seining vessel. For the past 6 months I was in
San Francisco saving for Australia and working at a sailing
charter company doing
repairs on their fleet. All told the almost all of the past year and a half has been spent sailing, or working on and around boats.
If I sound like a candidate for crew on your boat I would love you to call me at 515-306-4632 or send me a PM. And if not a simple "No thank you" would be nice so I can continue looking
Thanks,
Adam
