Dear Shipmates

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

fairly crampedusually cleancomfortablevery safehave a holidayvisit remote placesseek adventurelive off the grid

Hi, I will be slipping and surveying the boat on12th of May, then spending a couple of weeks around Pittwater/Sydney. About a month or so later, ? early July I will be heading up to North Queensland. Westsail 32’s are extremely strong seaworthy boats but are not blessed with huge internal volume so privacy can be an issue at times. I have been sailing for many years and happy to teach all aspects, navigation/sail handling/passage planning etc so experience is not necessary. I am looking for someone with an open mind, open to new experiences who is not afraid to get their hands dirty and share all duties on board. I am into swimming, snorkelling, walking , exploring. I used to be a remote area doctor into expedition medicine and also a polar guide (antarctic and arctic) so am used to living simply and visiting remote places.

What is expected of the crew

Sense of humour and sense of adventure required, experience optional
