Dear Crew: We are looking for 2 fit & able crew to help us sail in day sail and weekend trips in California You must have sailing experience. We have been cruising for 16 years and over 90,000 miles in the South Pacific, Atlantic and the Mediterranean. We are currently sailing our local waters including Catalina and the Chanel Islands.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

comfortableimmaculatevery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spacioushave a holiday

The boat is a classic schooner that is 86 foot (overall) Fife designed & built in 1923. She is completely restored & has sailed over 90,000 miles in the last 16 years. She has won numerous awards and races during that time at yachting events around the world. She is a fast able boat that can handle any weather. Our yacht is not a charter boat. She is family owned & operated so you do not have paid guests to deal with.

What is expected of the crew

We want crew that love to sail and have a love of classic yachts. You should have a solid sailing background.This is not a boat for beginning sailors but for experienced sailors that want to experience the power and beauty of a Fife classic. We are looking for shore based paid crew..
