Crew Available: Antigua to Martinique

[caradow]

Hello,
Just checking if there is anyone in Antigua who is heading south within days to a week or two that could drop me off in Le Marin Martinique I am thinking about purchasing a boat there and to fly it takes 24 hours and have to hub through Miami!
35+ years as Captain of my own boats so don't mind standing watch and can help with expenses.
Ciao

I think a positive response from boat owners is most likely, but contacting them could be challenging. I don't recall that Anitgua had a morning cruisers forum on VHF. If they do, then you could announce yourself. Otherwise, Antigua has charter boats (i.e. The Moorings and Sunsail). You might contact their offices and volunteer yourself for any folks that would appreciate your experience for that passage. Those offices might see the value themselves in having someone aboard who can help so much.

Thank you .I have spent considerable time in Antigua on my last boat. At that time there was a cruisers forum on VHF every morning attended by people from the Salty Dawgs. Not a bad idea regarding the charter boat crowd.
I do appreciate your time and suggestions.
