Crew Available: TONGA to New Zealand/Australia

[chael777]

Hey y'all, I'm going to be in Tonga probably around the first of october, crewing aboard a friend's boat from here, Tahiti, to there. I am looking to crew onward to New Zealand, or to Australia... but I'm not sure there will be so many yachts headed to Oz. So, if you will be in Tonga, consider me.

I've crewed on 5 passages, the most recent being Panama-Galapagos-Marquesas aboard a aluminum cat, then 3 weeks on a Cheoy Lee from the Marquesas to Tahiti, and now it's a CSY 44 to Tonga. I've very friendly, a good cook, patient, and above all I seek compatibility. I'm from Chicago, male, 26 years old, college ed, speak a whole bunch of languages. I'm a good deckhand, I'm told, and sailing, though relatively new to me, has been my life for the past 5 months. I'm a hard worker, and understand the demands of a boat.

Would "go ducks" mean anything to you Chael?

Assuming resounding yes! How you doing old friend?! Nice to see you in these parts and awesome that the sailing bug has caught you. We're both heading towards the same ultimate destinations (nz &/ Australia). I hope we'll both be able to get onward crew positions and meet up at sea or on land!
