Crew wanted for next March's Pacific Puddle jump to S. Pacific

Hi,

Looking for crew for a Mainland Mexico departure for the S. Pacifiic!

Prefer a gal for the trip, but would consider a guy!

No sailing experience necessary, but someone willing to learn, and help out with things aboard, and of course able to stand watches.

Needs to contribute to food on board and get yourself to Mazatlan or Puerto Vallarta, for a Feb. or March departure with the Pacific Puddle jump!

Let me know what works for you and any particular questions you might have.

Doug

Are you still looking for crew? I am an experienced sailor, female, mid- forties and up for an adventure. Do let me know and I will provide much more information.

Re: Crew wanted for next March's Pacific Puddle jump to S. Pacific

Greetings Doug,

I am a professional navigator, with 27 years sailing experience, including yacht ownership.

After 4 months of employment this summer on a 75-foot yacht in British Columbia, I'm ready for sailing in warmer waters! While I do not require a salary, I am not able to contribute to fuel or repair expenses.

If this crew position is still available, I'll forward additional information.

Jen

Re: Crew wanted for next March's Pacific Puddle jump to S. Pacific

Hello Doug,
How long of a sail would this be? I have limited sailing experience but am very eager to learn, have spent time at sea in the USCG. I am an RN, and have experience as a diver. Not afraid of rough seas. Can contribute towards food. Let me know if you can use me.
Thanks,
John

Re: Crew wanted for next March's Pacific Puddle jump to S. Pacific

Greetings captain,
On my card, I have " Ole salt sailor adventurist ", In the past 4 years, I have had the pleasure of rekindling my love ,fear relationship with that wonderful woman the sea. I sailed a 30 ft. Lipincott from kent island, maryland How cool it was to drop anchor @ sunset in key west on Christmas eve. did the winter workin crab & lobster boats, was fun interesting & a nice reminder, I can still work my ass off, which made me reconsider why , I was there. Than did a stint on a morgan to Bahamas's with a mate & a new boat buyer, what an adventure that turned out to be. after 3 1/2 days of 65 m.p.h. winds & 20 ft. seas, we had the owner take them helm, for no sleep or food for the 3 days, we were spent. He quickly & most efficiently got relieved after capsizing the vessel. when the electric & motor decided they cared not to work underwater, luckiely a flashlight had just a dim of a glow to hold her due east ,until the sound of the surf, we beached # cape Canaveral, glad as I was to be on land, had I found the beach 3 miles south, I coulda toured the launch pad, or 3 miles north, I could have had the pleasure of the nude beach, but no, I choosed smack in the middle of nowhere, any whoot this past may did a 1400 mile sail on a 50 ft.

ketch which was an epic adventure. So I have about 10,000 miles under sail, about 500,000 under power vessels, from being a navigator in oil research prior to these new fangled dangled gps's. man there nice ,but, im confused by them, & I suck at getting oil under my fingernails. however, I'm as easy to get along with as the stars are beautiful @ night, I have all the time in the world & its about time again to go see it breathe it & enjoyed.

I'll make a hellva third hand for the 3rd mate, can stay at the helm for 12 to 18 when or if required, look forward to hearing from ya ... @ times speak up ...
