- lots of
references, most of whom I've sailed with multiple times.
- easygoing, can-do attitude. Cruiser, not a
racer.
- sailing resume available upon request. Detailed OCL/FaC profiles as well.
- cost sharing for
food and some operational expenses is fine.
Just completed ARC+
route (Canaries -> Cabo Verde -> Martinique)
passage. Had a wonderful time with lots of dolphin and whale sightings, and caught more
fish than we could eat. Great experience.
Now interested in joining an E->W transpacific
passage such as
Pacific Puddle Jump or an independent doing a similar
route in or around Feb/Mar/Apr. Completed the 2015 PPJ, so not my first time on this
route.
I like helping people move their
boats from A to B.
Slight preference for cats on longer passages but monos are fine, too. Helping with deliveries is also fine and I'm quite good at both applying and removing all the painter's tape as well as not breaking anything or scratching the
teak.
Enjoy
fishing on
passage and am not entirely horrible at it. Nothing like fresh mahi and/or tuna while on
passage. Usually use fixed paracord hand lines with mono leaders for simplicity but happy to use whatever
gear you have.
Have done a fair amount (27k nm) of sailing with a fair amount of different people and know the drill pretty well. If the above sounds interesting, drop me a line and let's chat. Ideally would love to help someone all the way to
Australia (have done
Fiji -> Oz before) but happy with smaller passages along the way.
