Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Winter 2025 I would love to head west from the Canaries to the Caribbean, if anyone is looking for a hand.

About me: I am sort of a vagabond writer. I've worked on a lot of farms and boats and houses and projects and things. I started with boats by volunteering on the barkentine in Philadelphia, and from spent a summer on a schooner in New England, plus winter maintenance on a schooner in Bilbao. So, there I learned a lot of ships' work and sailory arts. Then at the end of 2023 I went down to NZ and worked on a couple boats there, sailed for a few weeks in Malaysia, and am now back in Europe for the summer. But, this winter, 2025, I would love to head west from Europe to the Caribbean (or anywhere at all, really). If that's you, give me a shout and maybe we can work something out. Cheers!

My bunk is often a bit of a mess, but in all other respects I like (but don't absolutely need) a clean and tidy boat. I have one ear pierced and a couple tattoos, but nothing drastic. I know the importance of hierarchy on a boat, and I like working together to accomplish a goal.

Back in Europe for the summer, but this winter I'd love to head out somewhere warm, if anyone is going.
