Hello everyone,
I am full time
Marine Engineer (2nd Class
motor STCW95) looking for sailing experience. I will be taking
sailing lessons and courses later on but in mean time willing to carry and mechanical/electrical
work for generic sailing experience and perhaps learn sailboat cruising life.
I have decided to give a try and live on a
boat. I have already been doing this for 8 years working
offshore on construction vessels. Also one of my hobbies is Mountaineering, I have good understanding of knots and ropes.
I am currently researching boats/sailing techniques, cruising life and how to be a minimalist. I know its science of its own.
I am not always in
Vancouver area as this greatly depends on my job schedule and travel needs but if there's anyone who need some mechanical/electrical maintenance/labour I will be happy to do free of charge, just for some sailing knowledge.
P.S I just joined this forum, Hi to everyone and hope to make some friends.
Thanks,
Alex
