Cabo, Mexico to San Diego, California Mar 30-Apr 7

Cabo, Mexico to San Diego, CA 7-9 day experience - Boat Delivery

If you are looking to gain experience and log days-on-water hours for certification or to expand your experience and personal learning, this trip is for you! I'm looking for a couple of crew members to deliver a sailboat from San Jose del Cabo, Mexico to San Diego, California. Some sailing experience a plus but you don't need to be a seasoned sailor. Best qualities are good demeanor, ability to work with others, physical competence and coordination, and desire to learn. Practical on boat experience and cross-training. Will be an educational experience on this boat delivery.

Learn real world e-chart navigation, running rigging and sails, review of ship systems, safety procedures, best practices, correct use of VHF radio, use of chart plotter, international check-in process and more. Food and board included (5 cabin 3 bath). Need a valid passport and be able to provide own transport to San Jose del Cabo, MX (est. $150 one way from LA). Will phone interview. This will be a great trip!

INFORMATION
Boat type:
2016 Jeanneau Odyssey 50' Sailboat

Financial arrangements:

Availability:
Estimated March 29 - April 7

Travel expenses:
To and from boat Paid by crew. Includes room and board

Hi all and thanks for your replies. The.crew opportunity for this passage has been filled. I posted on crew seekers as well and received a lot of interest. Unfortunately the PMs from this site were being routed to spam. I've corrected the issue. I have another trip which I'll post on this site from San Diego CA to Nanaimo British Columbia, Canada. Same boat 50' Jenneau Sun Odyssey. Approx dates April 8- April 25

That is early for that trip. Without trying to sound condescending, have you been along that stretch of coast at that time of year? There are a number of threads in this group that may be of help:
