Coming to NZ from
Alaska to visit a friend in February 10-20th.
It seems the best way to avoid the crowds in summer may be on a sailboat, much like tourism season here at home.
I’m looking for a local
boat owner-captain - someone who is familiar with area and
charts - who wants to get out for a few days for some coastal cruising and host some cool people.
I’m willing to pay for
food,
fuel and compensate for good hands-on instruction in sailing.
Please provide
references, description of your
boat, experience or business.
-OR-
If anyone can recommend a great charter/school preferably in or near Auckland….
-ALSO-
We may also be interested in passages to
Australia, Tasmania or Antarctica during that time and can fly to other points of departure.
Me:
43m, ex-military and
Alaska hiking/fishing/rafting guide, journalist
I’ve sailed a few dozen times and have attended some courses, but need refresher.
Her:
