Crew Available NOW!! USA

Yo Ho all you sailing Scallywags!

We are two creative, musical and environmentally conscious sailorettes who are looking to Crew on YOUR sailing vessel as soon as possible.

We are currently in Colorado...I know...No ocean here but we are hitching through the country until we can find some fun loving people to take us along for an open ocean adventure.

We are both mildly experienced but have our sea legs and have done some racing. Looking for folks willing to instruct our fast learning brains on the knitty gritties of all things sailing.

We want to sail to New Zealand but would like more sea hours first!

Thanks!!!!

Beth and Tessa

If you ever plan to motor west....

Go to the puget sound area and volunteer on the Schooner Adventuress. They do environmental education and sail training programs. It is a very musical ship.

Hi Beth and Tessa-

Maybe you are looking for a free ride but here is our information about upcoming trips to Maine from the Chesapeake. We are expense share but guarantee you will learn much along the way. In November we are possibly leaving for the Pacific and New Zealand but have not posted that itinerary yet. Contact us if any questions.
Best, Sailelcie

Hello Ladies.

I am going to colombia in about 4 or 5 days. If interested, I can hold on 1 or 2 days more to wait for you to arrive in San Juan, Puerto Rico, I do not have moch experience, so I will love some company for the trip. Is down wind all the way.

Regards

Karibe

Re: Crew Available NOW!! USA

Notice the offers to sail free are on boats 33 and under w/ low experance.... I would lean towards the 62 foot boat... Takes a bit more planning and knowledge to run one that size...

Re: Crew Available NOW!! USA

I agree with Captnsam. Try to find a bigger boat. 33 footer is pretty small and you will all get to know each other better than you can imagine after a couple of weeks.

Ask the skipper how much experience he has -. don't go unless he has quite a bit. If it gets rough out there and he has no experience........
