Experienced Skipper wanted

Looking for an experienced skipper to help me prepare (advise) and sail my Cal25 MkII from Ladysmith, Vancouver Island to Alaska next season. I dont have the foggiest idea how much is enough to prepare and rather insecure about sailing there all on my ownsome.
Times are flexible...hopefully you are too and although I'm easy to get along with I would prefer a non smoker and non belcher.
Thank you for your considerations.

Re: Experienced Skipper wanted

Hello "LoveCats", - I assume you mean S/V's not felines, just kidding, I like both myself. OK, serious time, so I'm good with non-smoking and even non-drinking (when at sea, at least), but wow, non-belching, I might need to stock up on "Gas-Ex" to accommodate that (LOL). Seriously, again: so you might be thinking SE Alaska? Like Jeneau, or Admiralty Islands, or around Glacier Bay Park? There is so much to explore there, and something I've been wanting to explore myself for some time. Nothing against the more serious Alaska to the West of there, but that's pretty serious waters. I believe we could reach the Admiralty Islands in a relaxed week or so. Share with me your thoughts on timing. I'll send my CV, but I have about 5K nm of off shore passages, and even with two of us, we can optimize watches w/ overnight sailing, but mixed with stop over anchorages. I think that's a wonderful sailing area, very sailing friendly.
Cheers for now.
