ready to jump on board

Hello,

I'm a young male, new to sailing, but looking for adventure, currently west coast USA. Ideally, I'd want to find an experienced crew with the goal of circumnavigation with stops all along the way and in need of an extra pair of eyes and hands. If circumnavigation is not in your plans, then I'd be happy to learn your plans to see if something could work.

Please PM me with anything and everything and I'll give you more details about myself.

Re: ready to jump on board

Before considering sailing the 7 seas, try sailing a few weekends on a windy/stormy lake. Learn the fundamentals of seamanship through sailing classes and hands-on experience. Sailors looking for a crew would appreciate you knowing a lot about the sea. While it is romantic to dream about sailing the seven seas, in reality it takes a special person with tenacious demeanor to do it. Anyone can captain a ship, when the sea is calm. Mauritz
