Crew Wanted: Solomons to Philippines

[ward]

From Gizo to Cebu. Around Nov this year. You Have to be able to go on short notice. I need to check the boat out in late October before making commitments. Its a Seamaster 46 sloop rig center cockpit and two helms. Has dive compressor, bow thruster, sonar, ssb, radar etc. It would be best If you are from Australia, then your close. Plan on doing one remote dive off of Manus Island. It will be a long haul. PNG is a bit too risky for me to explore. One stop will be in Rabaul for fuel and stores. Fair Winds--Ward

Hi Bruce-lot of paperwork even to get crew into the Solomons on a one way ticket. On find a crew my #is57389. Aussies have an advisory corp to help the officials there initials RAMSEY. If you were an Aussie and we made commitments that would make life easier. I cant explain to people how remote and backward where the boat is. The heat and flies are extreme. -----Ward
