Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Water is my medium - I am happiest near it, on it, in it or under it... So sailing is one of my real passions. I am looking for fun, adventure and sharing experiences with like minded people. Hope to meet you sometime soon.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

confident swimmergood communicatortravel light (little luggage)respectfulclean & tidycommittedeager to learn & workfit & healthyfriendlypolitediligentpositive outlookskilledorganisedtrustworthyopen mindedenthusiasticeasy-goingsense of humorcan pay own expensesavailable on my own

I have been a social sailor for the past 25 years, sailing both around Sydney and on numerous wonderful sailing holidays around the Mediterranean, Thailand and the Whitsundays. I participate in twilight and weekend racing on the Harbour and Pittwater. I leap at most sailing opportunities, so am looking for a regular crewing position or the temptation of a sailing getaway anywhere in the world. I have now been on a couple of successful Find-a-crew cruises, and am keen to continue to take up more such opportunities. However, my preference is for exploring and sailing around islands in an area, as opposed to doing long blue water crossings.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I thoroughly enjoy the live aboard lifestyle that sailing offers, and I am looking to meet people and explore different places and cultures through sailing, now that I have given up work and have the freedom and time.
