Hi,

My partner and I are very interested in your crewing positions.
I have extensive experience sailing in the South Pacific- I have crossed it 3 times, twice as captain, once as first mate. I have sailed to nearly all of the Society Islands, staying on the hook at all the ones we stopped at. I have both NZ and RYA Ocean Yacht Master licences, with blue water skipper endorsements. I have approximately 40,000 nm's experience.
My partner, Kirsten, is relatively new to sailing, but is working on achieving her Ocean Yacht Masters commercial ticket and needs to get more miles under her belt. She has recently completed a Advanced Keelboat helming course, and the Survival at sea course. Kirsten and I have sailed small cats all over the world, and chartered a 45ft Beneteau a few months ago off the coast of Australia.
We are both keen cooks and I am also very experienced at fixing just about everything that goes wrong on sailboats, having owned a business in San Francisco for three years doing just that.
Could you please tell me a little more about your plans? Are you just sailing the Society Islands, or will you continue on across the Pacific?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Paul

Not sure on if you are saying you want someone with experience in the Society Islands area as a requirement?

Also, are you paying transportation to and from the boat as well as all boat expenses?
