Central America (panama) to South Pacific (Australia)

Hey! Looking for a fun and adventurous couple to travel the seas with? Well you found them We want to sail from Central America through the South Pacific, starting roughly Feb 2015, eventually landing in Australia at some point in our lives! We are adventurous at heart, outdoorsy, active, enjoy music (play a little), yoga (I am an instructor), surfing, snorkelling and photography. I have a background in tourism/hospitality and my hubby is a plumber with graphic design qualifications. We are quick to learn, hard working and easy going. Our main goal is to experience sailing to destinations unknown! If you have more questions please email and we can set up a skype chat.

Update we have our Advanced dive qualifications. Any feedback or networking for those reading this ad to help us land a ride would be much appreciated. Willing to share costs if necessary. Also willing to land in NZ or other South Pacific country.

Re: Central America (panama) to South Pacific (Australia)

Any time spent on a sailing vessel? Any sailing experience? Any time spent on a small vessel in heavy weather? If you are quick to learn you may benefit from taking a sailing course meant to certify you for bare boat chartering. That way you get a chance to see if being in a bouncy boat in heavy weather is something you want to do. Assuming you have no sailing experience, of course.

Yes we both grew up with experience on small boats on the Great lakes and they can get rough. Also did 1 week sailing trips in Australia and Belize.
