Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Need a crew to deliver my Island Packet from Beaufort SC to Georgetown Bahamas. Will pay for travel to and from boat and on board food. The trip is about 750-800nm down the coast and over to Georgetown. Trip will take 8 to 14 days weather permitting. Share with the Responsibilities of helm, keeping watch, cooking, sail trim and handling deck lines. This will be my third trip to The Bahamas.
